#Obama2028 Trends On X After President Donald Trump Floats 3rd Term Idea

President Donald Trump famously quipped on the campaign trail that voters would never have to visit the polls again if he wins, signaling to his critics he intended to run for a third term. President Trump doubled down on his desire to seek a third term even though the U.S. Constitution bars this, prompting many on X to get #Obama2028 trending in support of President Barack Obama on the social media network.

In a Sunday morning (March 30) phone call appearance on NBC News, President Donald Trump was asked if he was joking about seeking a third presidential term despite the 22nd Amendment of the Constitution allowing just two four-year terms as a maximum. Lawmakers loyal to Trump have been examining resolutions and pathways to give Trump a third term, but some viewed the past comments as humorous at root.

However, Trump told host Kristen Welker, “A lot of people want me to do it. But, I mean, I basically tell them we have a long way to go, you know, it’s very early in the administration.”

Trump did say he’s focused on his time in office now, but Welker pressed about the matter, and Trump said that there are “methods” his side could examine. One is that JD Vance could run and win the presidency and hand over the reins to Trump, which the president seemed to suggest as a plan. He did not elaborate on other methods of seeking the unprecedented move for a third term.

President Barack Obama served two terms in the White House and left as one of its most popular and most criticized presidents in history. The charismatic politician has stumped for people in his party since leaving office, but has never said that he wants to return to elected office.

Still, the hope that President Obama could come back and run the nation has pushed the aforementioned hashtag along on X with additional commentary. We’ve got those reactions below.
