President Donald Trump has repeatedly teased a 2028 run for a third term in the White House, which is prohibited by the U.S. Constitution.
Now a new poll indicates Americans are far from thrilled with the prospect.
“It will be the greatest honor of my life to serve, not once but twice or three times or four times,” Trump said at rally in Nevada in late January, less than a week after his inauguration to his second term as president.
After joking that his comment would make headlines, Trump clarified that “no, it will be to serve twice.”
But Trump’s comments were far from a one-off, as he’s continued to flirt with a 2028 re-election run.
The president said in an interview late last month that he is “not joking” about making another run for the Oval Office.

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