US President Donald Trump Says He's Not Targeting A Third Period

JAKARTA - United States President Donald Trump said he was not eyeing a third term, highlighting provisions on the US Constitution, although it was said there was a request to return to the next presidential election contestation.

That was conveyed by President Trump in an exclusive interview with "Meet the Press" on NBC News which aired on Sunday, saying several other Republican politicians were able to carry out their duties to replace him.

"I will be president for eight years; I will be president for two terms. I always think it is very important," President Trump told Christian Meet the Press moderator Welker in an interview broadcast on Sunday.

Last March, President Trump said he was "no joke" considering running for the presidential election for the third time.

He also said on a separate occasion he had received a request from his ally to run again Despite the request, President Trump told Welker, realizing the reality that was blocking him.

"That's something that, as far as I know, you shouldn't do. I don't know if it's constitutional because they don't allow you to do it or anything else," said President Trump.

Previously, The Trump Organization led by his two sons had sold the "Trump 2028" hat, sparking speculation he might try to stay in office after his second term ends in January 2029.

"So many people want me to do it," Trump said, a few days after celebrating his first 100 days of his second term, he said.

He added, "there are many people who sell 2028 hats".

"But this is not something I want to do," he said, then naming the names of Republicans who can replace him, including Vice President JD Vance and Foreign Minister Marco Rubio.

It is known, the 22nd Amendment to the United States Constitution said, "No one should be elected to the position of President more than twice."

amending the Constitution to remove these restrictions will be very difficult, requiring support from the two-thirds of the DPR and the Senate or two-thirds of the state legislature. Both methods then require ratification from three-quarter states.
