Trump says starting a third presidential term is no joke, and Vance is one way to step down

On March 31st, US President Donald Trump said in an interview with NBC on Sunday that he is not joking about seeking a third term as president of the United States, but it is too early to consider doing so. The 22nd Amendment to the US Constitution stipulates that the same person can only serve two terms as president. "I'm not joking, but it's too early to think about it. There are ways to do that," Trump said. But he refused to elaborate on the specific method. When reporters asked about a possible scenario - that Vice President Vance ran for office and then gave way to Trump, Trump responded: "It's one way, but there are other ways". Overturning the constitutional amendment requires two-thirds of the votes of the Senate and House of Representatives and approval by three-quarters of the state legislatures in 50 states. Steve Bannon, a longtime adviser to Mr. Trump, said in an interview on March 19 that he believed Mr. Trump would run again in 2028. Mr. Bannon said he and others were working on ways to achieve that goal, including a definition of term limits.
