Donald Trump has announced he will run for president in 2028 during a rambling speech to the Washington press corps.
Trump was speaking at the White House Correspondents’ Association Dinner when he appeared to make the announcement.
I won three times, now I’m gonna do it again,” he said, while putting on a cap that read “Trump 2028″.
“I’m gonna do it again. It should be easy.”
He went on to add that he won in 2020 but the election was rigged.
The 80-year-old was met with a smattering of applause, but even he did not seem excited by the moment.
Over the dead body of every patriot that stands for the Constitution, which reads in pertinent part:
No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice
-22nd Amendment

It’s official. He’s going for the Putin-esque “democracy”…a dictatorship where you beat the crap out of people at the polls for voting opposition.
