Donald Trump has said he will not run for the White House in 2028 if he loses to Kamala Harris in the November presidential election.

Asked whether he thought he would run again in four years if he lost on Nov 5, the 78-year-old Republican nominee told Full Disclosure, a US outlet: “No, I don’t. I think that that will be, that will be it. I don’t see that at all. I think hopefully we’re going to be successful.”

Trump’s comments are thought to be the first time he has ruled himself out of running to become president again if he fails in this year’s bid.

If he wins, he would be ineligible for the 2028 race. The 22nd amendment to the US constitution limits the number of terms a president can serve to two four-year spells. However, he has previously suggested he would try to seek a third term if re-elected.

In March, he told the National Rifle Association’s annual meeting: “You know, FDR 16 years — almost 16 years — he was four terms. I don’t know, are we going to be considered three-term? Or two-term?”

During his campaign in 2020, Trump told a rally in Wisconsin that if he won another four years “we’ll go for another four years because they spied on my campaign. We should get a redo of four years”.

That's what he said before the 2020 election, that he would 'go away'.

He lies.

He also said if he loses 2020, we never see him again. Yet, here we are...
