- Trump has stated that he is serious about the possibility of running for a third term.


US President Donald Trump has stated that he does not rule out the possibility of running for the post of head of state for a third term, which is prohibited by the country's Constitution in accordance with the 22nd Amendment. This was reported on March 30 by NBC News.
"A lot of people want me to do this," the American leader said.
Trump added that there are methods for him to be re-elected for a third term, but it's too early to think about it. Amending the U.S. Constitution to repeal the presidential two-term limit is extremely difficult from a legal point of view.
According to the TV channel, Andy Ogles, a member of the House of Representatives, has prepared a resolution calling for an extension of the presidential term. This would allow Trump to run for another term.
The Daily Mail newspaper reported on March 30 that the US president could be in power until 2037 due to a loophole in the 22nd Amendment to the country's Constitution. As specified in the article, this possibility arises due to discrepancies in the interpretation of this amendment: it prohibits re-election only for a president who has been elected twice, but does not regulate the situation of returning to office in the event of the resignation or death of another president.
