Onetime White House chief strategist Steve Bannon insisted on Monday that moves are afoot to secure President Donald Trump an unconstitutional third term.“You damn right, it’s ‘Trump ’28,’” the convicted fraudster, who served in Trump’s first term, claimed on the latest episode of his “War Room” podcast.“You damn right. You know what, it puts the fear of God in them,” added Bannon, who played a key role in Trump’s surprise 2016 win over Democratic rival Hillary Clinton.Bannon then claimed that “one of the top constitutional lawyers in this country as he works through” the way to keep Trump in the White House had told him, “Bannon, you can drive a Mack truck through the 22nd Amendment.’”“So, suck on that,” he added.BANNON: You damn right it's Trump 2028. And to quote one of the top constitutional lawyers in this country, "You can drive a Mack truck through the 22nd amendment."Suck on that. pic.twitter.com/4IOxxP5G99— Bannon’s WarRoom (@Bannons_WarRoom) November 3, 2025Bannon last month claimed there are “different alternatives to make sure” that Trump “is on the ballot, and if he’s on the ballot, he’ll win.”“We’re working on it. I think we’ll have a couple of alternatives, let’s say that,” Bannon also said in March. “We’ll see what the definition of term limit is.”Trump has repeatedly teased a third term, even using “Trump 2028”-branded merch to troll Democrats.Last week, however, he finally appeared to rule it out.“It’s a very interesting thing. I have the best numbers for any president in many years, any president,” he said. “And I would say that if you read it, it’s pretty clear. I’m not allowed to run. It’s too bad, obviously.”ABC News’ Jonathan Karl, meanwhile, said Trump has “started doing this thing” on board Air Force One of asking people if Vice President JD Vance or Secretary of State Marco Rubio should be his successor.Close
