Republican President Donald Trump said on Sunday he was not joking about seeking a third presidential term, which is barred by the U.S. Constitution, but that it was too early to think about doing so.

Trump, who took office on January 20 for his second, non-consecutive White House term, has made vague allusions to seeking a third one but addressed it directly on Sunday in a telephone interview with NBC News.

“No, I’m not joking. I’m not joking,” Trump said, but “it is far too early to think about it.”

“There are, there are methods which you could do it, as you know,” he said. He declined to elaborate on any specific methods.

    Great glad you brought up Gaza. I think it’s wonderful that we went from soft support of isreal, to full on Genocide. Like grind up the palestinians and use them for the foundation of Trump hotel genocide. Not slow rolling generations of terrorism genocide.

    So ya dude this is what im saying about the messaging, you’re still hung up on whats wrong with Kamala, while the alternative who was elected, removes medicare entirely. Promotes actual removing all the people with no final destination genocide. Cuts weapons from Ukraine to give MORE to isreal

    EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOUR PROGRESSIVE DREAMS HAS BEEN DESTROYED. You will never get these policies passed now. Just stick with voting for Jill Stien. So fucking stupid you watched Kamala trying to reach out to the median vote and thought wow, we’d be better off with Trump because then the Dem’s will come further left with me.

    Dude they’re going to deport you for your progressive views. And then we can finally win an election. So Like idk hows this wonderful progressive vision playing out? Does it end in Gitmo?

      lol I did not vote for Jill Stein. Also, if you think Harris would’ve magically stopped Israel from continuously killing Palestinians during a ceasefire… well… they didn’t. Nor did they stop the entire genocide happening while Biden was in charge. It would have been… less public? Cool? I guess?

      The democrats won’t pass anything progressive either, so it’s not like my progressive dreams were gonna happen if Harris won. And like, the genocide shit was one single point of the many things that were issues for her. One of the most obvious things she could have done to signal she is not Biden and will listen to constituents.

      Like I understand foreign policy in the Middle East is a lot but acting like there’s nothing we could do about us sending bombs to commit genocide, while we were actively telling Ukraine they could not attack Russia using our weapons, is just silly. (Yes we did eventually let them attack Russia, but the fact that there was a time they had to hold off, meanwhile our bombs are dropping on civilians in Gaza, is wild.)

        No its alright, because now we cut USAID to palestine effectively starving them. They won’t last long under the bombs while starving.

        I care about the 70 million americans who depend on social security to survice. I care about the 30 million americans that are food insecure and facing empty food banks.Me and everyone else in america could care less about palestine when grandmas life is at risk.

        I’m going to sumerize your political view. My way or the highway. If i don’t get what i want everyone should suffer. If i can’t get 100 million people to agree with my political opinion than 330 million people should suffer.

        Now we’ve got the most evil regime passing the most evil policy they can think of every day. 45% complete with project 2025.
