Trump "probably" won't go for 2028 election
The word "probably" has so much depth to it. It's probably no but not necessarily no, it could be probably no but depending on the political and constitutional situation at the time, or it could probably be no unless the nation appeals to him to stay on for another four years. It's the last one which will attract Trump's ego. If he has had a relatively successful second term, he might think every American will want him for another four years by which time incidentally he would be approaching his late-80s. However, on balance, he appears to be coming round to the view that he won't stand again, either because the constitution says he can't or because he is happy with his potential successor, provide of course it's a Republican. So, when asked outright whom he wants to succeed him he puts JD Vance first, because as vice president that is his right. But in his latest comments, he couldn't resist praising Marco Rubio who is still combining three jobs. secretary of state, national security adviser and head of international aid. Trump seemed to be suggesting that Marco Rubio could be Vance's running-mate. Vance might have other ideas. It all shows that Trump is already thinking ahead. He wants a Trump III in the White House in three and a half years, and clearly thinks Vance and/or Rubio will just carry on the MAGA momentum. If that is what happens, then the Trump brand could be here (well, in the US) for another eleven and a half years.
