John Bolton: Will America escape Donald Trump? | LBC

Donald Trump has boldly claimed he is 'not joking' about running for a third term in the White House, as he admitted 'there are methods' he could use to retain power.

Donald Trump has said he is “not joking” about seeking a third term as president, a move that would defy the US constitution.

Trump, who was elected for his first term in 2016 and his second in 2024, said there are “methods” – if not “plans” – to circumvent the constitutional limit designed to prevent dictatorships in the US.

His comments come following several statements suggesting he could seek to scrap the two-term limit by which every president since 1951 has abided by.

Asked by NBC if his comments were merely a joke, Trump said they weren’t and added: “There are methods which you could do it. There are plans."

As the country faces down a possible continuation of the 'Trump era', John Bolton, the President's former National Security Advisor, sits down with Andrew Marr to give his predictions.
