"If you read the Constitution, it says it's not [possible], Tuberville stated. But if he says he has some different circumstances that might be able to go around the Constitution. But that's up to him. We got a long way to go before that happens. Serving a third term is not up to the president. Well, I think that there's going to be have to have to be an evaluation from President Trump's viewpoint to the Constitution, the senator replied. There will be a lot of legal aspects to it. Will it happen? It's very unlikely. But, don't ever close the book on President Trump."
"The 22nd Amendment limits presidents to two terms in office and can only be changed with the approval of two-thirds of both houses of Congress and three-fourths of the states. Trump has suggested he could run for a third term and even has Trump 2028 hats in the Oval Office. And Steve Bannon, his former adviser, has repeatedly claimed Trump can serve another term and that there's a plan in place, and that the president will win in 2028."
"I think the president knows, and he and I have talked about the constrictions of the Constitution, the speaker said. I don't see a way to amend the Constitution, because it takes 10 years to do that."
The 22nd Amendment limits presidents to two terms and can only be changed with two-thirds approval in both houses of Congress and ratification by three-fourths of the states. President Donald Trump has suggested he could run for a third term and has displayed Trump 2028 hats in the Oval Office. Steve Bannon has claimed a plan exists for another Trump term and predicted a 2028 win. Senator Tommy Tuberville said the Constitution appears to prohibit a third term but suggested Trump might claim different circumstances and predicted legal complexities; he called a third term unlikely. Speaker Mike Johnson said the Constitution is clear and an amendment would take a decade.
