Karoline Leavitt Forgets To Entertain Trump And His Big 2028 Dreams

White House press secretary https://www.huffpost.com/topic/karoline-leavitt" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Karoline Leavitt seemed to accidentally undermine her boss’s third-term delusions during a https://www.foxnews.com/video/6402144023112?dicbo=v2-jqTy0qo&intcmp=fn_article_bc_ob_more_from" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Friday interview on Fox News.

Asked about balancing motherhood and being President https://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/feeds/news/donald-trump" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Donald Trump’s favorite mouthpiece, Leavitt slipped up and admitted a major reality about the presidency.

Telling Fox News talent and Trump daughter-in-law Lara Trump she’s proud of the “public service” working at the White House provides, she added, “I realise it’s temporary.

President Trump is only here in DC for four years.”

Somehow, Leavitt seemed to forget that Trump has been teasing the idea of a third term for years now.

At https://www.huffpost.com/entry/ap-us-media-correspondents-dinner_n_6a6402d6e4b0bd608d2b884c" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Friday’s redux of the White House Correspondents’ Association Dinner, he told the room of reporters and politicos, “I’m going to do it again,” while popping on a MAGA red “Trump 2028” hat.

During https://www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-good-looking-men-coast-guard-commencement_n_6a0e2e9de4b079e4ea354bfb" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">commencement for the US Coast Guard Academy in May, the president told graduates, “I’m going to be here in ’28.

Maybe I’ll be here in ’32 too.

I don’t know.”

Though the 22nd Amendment of the Constitution explicitly states that “no person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice,” Trump has also mused about finding workarounds.

Asked if he was serious about his ambitions during https://www.huffpost.com/entry/donald-trump-third-term-not-joking_n_67e97ff1e4b04645d330caaf" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">an interview with NBC News’ Kristen Welker in May 2025, he said he was “not joking” and that he believed there were “methods” to continue his time in the Oval Office.
