Former President Donald Trump has dismissed the notion of seeking the vice presidency in 2028 but has left the door slightly ajar for a third presidential term, a move that flouts constitutional limits.

The 22nd Amendment bars presidents from serving more than two terms, and while Trump enjoys teasing his supporters with the possibility of a third term, legal and political hurdles loom large.

Speculation about Trump's future role has left the Republican Party in a state of flux, with potential successors preparing their bids and allies like Steve Bannon hinting at a plan that might challenge constitutional restrictions.
