The 22nd Amendment to the United States Constitution stipulates that "[n]o person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice."

Yet in a bombshell move, one member of the Senate suggested earlier this week that President Donald Trump should nevertheless run again in 2028. 

Sen. Lindsey Graham: "Trump 2028. I hope this never ends"

According to The Hill, that possibility was put forward on Tuesday evening by South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham (R) during an interview with Fox News host Sean Hannity.

"Trump 2028. I hope this never ends," Graham declared while praising the president's record in dealing with Russian President Vladimir Putin and the war in Ukraine.

"He tried to go out of his way to get Putin to the table. We don’t want to humiliate Russia, we just want to end the war, and to our friends in Russia, here’s what Trump did today," he continued.

Trump: "I'll be an eight-year president, I'll be a two-term president"

"He told NATO, 'I’ll sell you all the weapons you want to, you can provide them to Ukraine, and as to Ukraine, you can use them anyway you want,'" Graham went on to point out.

This is not the first time that Graham has put forward the prospect of a third Trump term, as the South Carolina lawmaker previously did so in March before dismissing the idea as a joke when asked about it by reporters.

While the president previously talked of embarking on another White House run, Trump has since backed off from the idea of doing so.

"I'll be an eight-year president, I'll be a two-term president. I always thought that was very important," he told NBC News host Kristen Welker in May.

President says J.D. Vance is "favored" to be the GOP nominee in three years

What's more, USA Today reported last month that Trump identified Vice President J.D. Vance as the Republican Party's "likely" nominee in 2028.

Trump also highlighted Vance's record, explaining that his vice president is "doing a great job, and he would probably be favored at this point."

USA Today noted how the president's comments regarding Vance appeared to represent a change from the position that he took back in February.

At that point, Trump described Vance as being a "very capable" figure but nevertheless insisted that it was still "too early" to make predictions about the future.
