Per the 22nd Amendment of the U.S. constitution, this is the second—and final—term that Trump can serve. In an interview with the Atlantic, published on April 28, the topic came up once again, with Trump saying that running for a third term was not something he is looking into. However, speculation continued.

The Constitution prohibits election to more than two presidential terms. But Trump supporters hope there are loopholes, and the president has both dismissed and encouraged the speculation.
