Donald Trump said in an interview released on Sunday that he did not think he would run for president again in 2028 if he loses this year’s race for the White House.
In an interview on the Full Measure television show with Sharyl Attkisson, the former US president – who ran in 2016 and 2020 – was asked whether he saw himself running yet again in four years time.
“No, I don’t,” Trump answered. “I don’t see that at all.”
He said: “Hopefully, we’re going to be successful.”
Ya’ll are missing the point. He doesn’t see it because he doesn’t see any more elections in the future. He isn’t talking about being successful at winning the 2024 election, he’s talking about successfully executing a coup.
This is the same guy who he insists he won in 2020 and is supposed to be sitting president now. By his logic, he’s running for a third term.
He’s also said that he will become a dictator on day one if he’s elected this year. Why would he run in 2028 if he abolishes elections or makes a loophole to stay in the White House?
I hope he dies in prison.
Three u.s establishment would never allow a former president to go to prison. It’s never going to happen. All we can hope for is death by big Mac by the time he’s 80
He is literally awaiting sentencing. Admittedly, he had to break a lot of fucking laws for something to stick but I expect we’ll be seeing his Prison Memiors on sale for years and years.
I think the whale nuker is right. He might get a lot of probation, but prison is almost assuredly not going to happen. I was sort of holding out hope, but this soft handling by the judges seems too nice.
He’s awaiting a slap on the wrist is what. At most he’ll be fined money he will never pay and be given some sort of suspended sentence at most
I just hope he goes to prison. We better not get any of this “heal the country” shit. You know what will heal the country? Having people who break the look law go to jail.
I want to see him flee to Russia and see how Putin handles him after he’s done being useful. Will Putin finance his lavish lifestyle to show others that working with him might pay off or will Putin deal with him more harshly for failing to get America out of his imperialist way? Or maybe Putin will make a show out of promising to support him financially but then a “rival” will deal with Trump, making Putin very angry but there’s nothing that can be done now, such is life.
Or would Trump even be willing to flee if it means losing SS protection, now that he knows at least two people wanted to shoot him badly enough to risk their lives on it?
He also said he’d “disappear” if he lost the 2020 election. At this rate the only way we will stop hearing about him is when he dies, and yet Im sure once we are rid of his existence, the deranged cultists will continue to believe he still stalks the earthly realm.
He said that about 2024 in 2020, but here he is. Did he forget because of dementia or is he just a liar?
It is an abuser tactic, silent treatment or withholding affection if he doesn’t get what he wants. I guess that might work on his cult even if it has the opposite effect on people with multiple brain cells.
If he is alive in 2028 he will run again. Hopefully he is in prison by then.
Well he definitely said that in 2020, and if someone had had the foresight to ask him in 2016 he probably would have said it then as well, so I’m going to go ahead and be a little skeptical here.
Shh don’t interrupt him when he’s accidentally campaigning for harris here
“If I lose, I won’t run again!” - 34 Time Convicted Felon Donald J Trump
Left voting intensifies
If he wins it’s two terms and he also won’t run again?
If he wins he won’t ever let go of power. When you’re president, they (the supreme court) let you do it.
I suppose it’s possible, with 4 years of unchecked power and the project 2025 guys working for him they might be able to figure it out :/
There is no supposing. JD Vance is already saying once he is VP he will not certify the election if Trump loses again.
Don’t forget SCOTUS says he can’t be stopped by anything but impeachment.
Is there any past comment or behavior that would suggest Trump wouldn’t run for a third term, if given the chance?
If he weren’t lying I’d be ecstatic right now. Although the laws of human mortality may prove him a truth teller for once in his life.
What’s interesting to me is that he seemed to acknowledge the possibility of failing at all. And that he didn’t organize the answer around “if the election is stolen” or something. This is unlike him.
This answer was almost human.
The words coming out of his mouth aren’t even worth the paper they’re printed on
He also said he wouldn’t run again if he lost to Biden 4 years ago. Why does anyone believe a single word that comes out of his removed of a mouth?
Challenge accepted
I’m just surprised that he admitted to possibly losing
Last time he said he’d leave the country and we’d never hear from him again if he lost.
Yet here we are.
I thought the election is “stolen” if he should lose.
