Trump declares his intention to run for the presidential election in 2028.
Cap Sells with "Trump 2028" Inscription Raises Three-Term Possibility
Intriguing merchandise bearing the inscription "Trump 2028" has appeared in the official Trump Online Store, hinting at a prospective third term for the Republican President. However, the 22nd Amendment to the U.S. Constitution unequivocally bars a president from serving more than two four-year terms.
The cap is priced at $50 and a t-shirt with the same inscription at $36. The items are marketed as a way to make a statement while being Made in America. The Trump Store, owned by the Trump Organization, is currently managed by Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump.
A picture shared by Eric Trump on Instagram shows him wearing the new Trump cap. Interviews have prompted questions regarding whether the cap alludes to another presidential run by Trump or a third-term bid by a family member.
Trump's supporters have expressed a desire for him to run again, but when directly questioned, he suggested working hard without explicitly committing to another term. He also mentioned that there were ways to achieve a third term, sparking concern among Democrats and legal experts.
Historically, the 22nd Amendment, ratified in 1951, has put a stop to any president serving more than two terms. The U.S. legal system is expected to rigidly uphold this restriction, making a third term for Trump seem improbable. Any attempt to bypass the amendment might face immediate legal challenges.
Despite these indications, Trump's supporters often dismiss such speculation as a media ploy, while critics view the Republican's ambiguous statements as a calculated method to make radical positions more palatable.
