President Donald Trump needs all you dummies to know that if he does resolve to run once more, it gained’t be his third time period ― however his fourth, duh.
When requested how he’d pull that off, Trump instructed the outlet, “There are methods which you could do it.”

In a while Sunday, whereas Trump was touring from Mar-a-Lago again to Washington, D.C., he determined to take questions from reporters within the press cabin on Air Power One, and was questioned about his remarks to NBC Information.
“You said you were not joking about possibly wanting a third term, does that mean you’re not planning to leave office on Jan. 20?” a reporter requested Trump, per footage shot by C-SPAN.
In response, Trump determined to make the excellence that if he had been to run once more, it wouldn’t be his third time period.
“I’m not looking at that, but I’ll tell you, I have had more people ask me to have a third term, which in a way is a fourth term because the other election, the 2020 election was totally rigged,” Trump stated. “So it’s actually sort of a fourth term in a certain way. I just don’t want the credit for the second because [former President Joe] Biden was so bad, he did such a bad job, and I think that’s one of the reasons that I’m popular, if you want to know the truth.”
The “truth” is that regardless of Trump’s steady — and fairly frankly, tiresome — claims that he gained the 2020 election, there isn’t a proof to help his disturbing allegations that it was “rigged.”
Regardless of a reporter seemingly attempting to ask a follow-up query on Air Power One Sunday, Trump ignored it and determined to ramble on in imprecise platitudes about why he’s so “popular” till reporters interrupted his diatribe with extra questions.
“The constitution limits a president to two terms. Is it your understanding that they have to be—” one reporter stated, lastly breaking via.
“I don’t even want to talk about it. I’m just telling you I have had more people saying, please run again. We have a long way to go before we even think about that, but I’ve had a lot of people,” Trump stated with out figuring out any of those “people” he’s referring to, as per ordinary.
In an extended model of Trump’s presser on Air Power One Sunday, obtained by Medialite, one other reporter requested him if he felt that operating for a 3rd, or fourth, time period was an “appropriate precedent to set” even when it’s not Trump “in that position.”

The president went on to elucidate that these mysterious “people” he retains on referring to simply actually, actually need him to run.
“I don’t even want to talk about a third term now because no matter how you look at it, you’ve got a long time to go,” Trump stated. “We have a long time. We have almost four years to go, and that’s a long time but despite that, so many people are saying you’ve got to run again. They love the job we’re doing. Most importantly they love the job we’re doing.”
Properly, we suppose Trump instructed one reality: We bought 4 extra years of this BS, and it’ll definitely really feel like “a long time.”
