Donald Trump has sparked concern after his latest stunt in the Oval Office that seemingly hints at him running for president again.
The 79-year-old has suggested that he would consider running for a third term in office on a number of occasions, despite the fact that this would be unconstitutional.
The 22nd Amendment prevents individuals from serving more than two terms as president, which Trump clearly has with his victories in 2016 and 2024.
Though in August, he gave an update on his plans on another presidential bid.

With that said, Trump recently shared an image to Truth Social, potentially hinting that he would attempt to run again.
The picture showed the POTUS in the Oval Office with 'Trump 2028' hats on full display when he met with Democrat leaders in the hopes of avoiding a government shutdown, on Monday (September 29).
The post came not long after it was confirmed the government would be shutting down, the first time since 2018-2019.
Hakeem Jeffries, the minority leader of the US House of Representatives, has commented on Trump’s antics after he shared the image as well as an AI video mocking Jeffries.
Speaking on CNN, he said: “He is an unserious individual and the Republicans are unserious at this point.
“They have no interest in having a good faith conversation and all of the behavior erratic, unhinged behavior that we have seen should suggest to the American people who actually is trying to drive us toward a government shutdown.”
On social media, many also condemned Trump for this as well as the potential suggestion in running for president again.
One user on Twitter wrote: “Trump spent yesterday’s meeting with Democratic leadership taunting them with 'Trump 2028' hats. He’s not serious about keeping the government open. He’s openly mocking America’s Constitution.”

Another added: “If Trump can flaunt his Trump 2028 hats on the Resolute desk, trample the Constitution & run for a 3rd term - Barack Obama can run for a 3rd term.”
A third commented: “The hat serves as the warning for what’s to come. Some folk keep ignoring that warning.”
Someone else was frustrated with the Democrats staying for a meeting, despite the '2028 Trump' hats in view.
They wrote: “When you walk into a meeting with Trump that is supposed to be a bipartisan negotiation on a funding resolution and he has 'Trump 2028' merch strewn across the table, the correct response is TO WALK OUT OF THE F****** ROOM.”
UNILAD has contacted the White House for comment.
