… But Won’t Be Vice Prez
Published
Donald Trump isn’t ruling out a third run for president … and he’s making it clear he has zero interest in being anyone’s VP.
The prez spoke to reporters Monday aboard Air Force One en route to Japan … when he was asked about Steve Bannon’s recent comments, claiming there are plans for Trump to run and potentially win a third term in 2028.

Trump says “I would love to do it” when pressed about the potential presidential bid … adding, “I have my best numbers ever.”
A reporter follows up asking if he’s “not ruling it out” … and DT replies, “Am I not ruling it out? You’ll have to tell me.”
Trump then takes aim at the Democrats, saying, “”All I can tell you is that we have a great, a great group of people, which they don’t,” before ripping into Rep. Jasmine Crockett and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez … referring to both as “low IQ.”
Q: “One theory on how you might try to serve a third term is that you could run as the VP.”
Trump: “Yeah, I’d be allowed to do that…You’d be allowed to do that, but I wouldn’t wanna, I wouldn’t do it…I would rule that out because it’s too cute. I think the people wouldn’t… pic.twitter.com/tfdNRTykD6

Trump is then asked about a theory floating around that could keep him in the White House — by running as vice president — but he quickly shuts that down, calling it “too cute” and saying “it wouldn’t be right.”
Time will tell if he actually makes a run or just keeps teasing the idea … stay tuned.
