Trump Suggests He Knows He Can’t Run Again: ‘It’s Too Bad’
President Trump seemed to concede on Wednesday that he was not eligible to serve a third term, lamenting that it was an unfortunate result of the constitutional prohibition that he has mused about violating for months.
Speaking to reporters aboard Air Force One en route to South Korea, the last leg of his three-country diplomatic tour across Asia, Mr. Trump said it was “too bad” that he couldn’t run in 2028.
“We have the greatest economy we’ve ever had, I have my highest poll numbers that I’ve ever had,” he boasted (his approval rating remains low, at 43 percent, according to a New York Times average). “And, you know, based on what I read, I guess I’m not allowed to run. So we’ll see what happens.”
The remarks came after House Speaker Mike Johnson said on Tuesday there was no path around the Constitution’s two-term limit.
There really isn’t a path.
Since retaking the White House, Mr. Trump has repeatedly teased that he may never leave. For several months, Mr. Trump has discussed serving a third term, vacillating between joking to goad his critics and signaling that it would be one of many ways he would seek to test the bounds of his constitutional authority.
Even as recently as Saturday, Mr. Trump said, “I would love to do it,” when asked about serving another four years.
While I’m sure Trump would love to serve another term, mostly what he’s doing here is trolling Democrats, and, like most things he says, it drives them full on barking moonbat. They take everything he says at full value, with no cognition that he’s winding them up. Even the people in the media who cover Trump and should know better are wound up like a jack in the box, popping up with apoplexy.
Asked on Wednesday whether he had been “trolling” or serious about serving, Mr. Trump indicated that he had come to terms with the 22nd Amendment, which states that no one can be elected president more than twice (consecutively or not).
“If you read it, it’s pretty clear — I’m not allowed to run,” he said. “It’s too bad.”
And the Times doesn’t think he’s trolling them. And what’s going to happen now is that Trump will continue to tweak the noses of Democrats over this, and they will run on Crazy, even the NY Times after publishing this.
Two federal prosecutors, Carlos Valdivia and Samuel White, were locked out of their government devices and informed Wednesday morning they will be placed on leave, just hours after they filed a sentencing memorandum in the case of Taylor Taranto, the sources said.
Taranto was pardoned by Trump but the prosecutors had noted that Taranto was one of the “thousands of people comprising a mob of rioters,” on Jan 6.
Taranto faced a separate conviction for firearms and threat charges related to a June 2023 arrest near the home of former President Barack Obama where he was found in possession of two guns and hundreds of rounds of ammunition, as well as a machete.

Didn’t a mob of rioters storm the Capitol on Jan 6?
Gotta love the picture of creepy Chuck. Tells it all.
— “You might think, given that the Republicans are in charge of both the House and the Senate, that a government shutdown might actually hurt the Republican brand. But, in fact, it hasn’t. If anything, it’s been helped a little bit,” Enten explained. —
