President Donald Trump has confirmed that he will not pursue a third term in office, reinforcing his respect for the two-term presidential limit outlined in the U.S. Constitution. Despite receiving widespread encouragement from supporters to continue leading, Trump stated that serving eight years is both sufficient and important to him.

In a televised interview, Trump said, “I'll be an eight-year president, I'll be a two-term president. I always thought that was very important.” He added, “It's something that, to the best of my knowledge, you're not allowed to do. I don't know if that's constitutional that they're not allowing you to do it or anything else.”

Earlier this year, Trump had hinted at considering a third run, sparking speculation when his organization released “Trump 2028” hats for $50. However, in his most recent remarks, he acknowledged the constitutional reality: the 22nd Amendment bars anyone from being elected president more than twice.

“I was not joking when I mentioned it before,” Trump noted, “but the Constitution makes it clear. You’re elected twice, and that’s it.” His decision appears to put to rest ongoing speculation about any further presidential bids beyond his current second term.

Trump’s acknowledgment reflects a commitment to upholding constitutional norms, even amid strong grassroots enthusiasm. As his second term progresses, the focus is expected to shift toward shaping his legacy and supporting successors within his political movement.
