President Donald Trump is preparing to make history again by securing a third term in 2028, according to Steve Bannon, who claims the former president will be reelected despite legal obstacles. Bannon, a longtime ally of Trump, asserted during an interview that the 22nd Amendment, which limits presidential terms, will not prevent Trump from returning to the White House. “President Trump will be the president of the United States,” Bannon stated, framing Trump as a “vehicle of divine providence” tasked with completing his political mission.
Bannon dismissed concerns about the 22nd Amendment, arguing that the Constitution’s framework allows for flexibility. He suggested that a constitutional amendment could overturn the term limit, a process he described as “available and practical.” However, he acknowledged the challenge of passing such an amendment through Congress, citing the current political divide. Bannon also speculated that Trump’s team may have evidence of election irregularities from 2020, which could fuel public demand for his return in 2028.
The interview touched on hypothetical scenarios, including a potential partnership between Trump and JD Vance, though Bannon dismissed this as “noise.” Instead, he emphasized the likelihood of a constitutional amendment to remove term limits. He envisioned a future where Trump’s re-election is driven by widespread public support, arguing that his leadership would restore national stability.
Bannon also addressed criticism of Trump’s approach, defending him against accusations of authoritarianism. He claimed Trump’s policies involve “negotiations” and compromises, including dealings with Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelenskiy. However, the article condemned Zelenskiy’s decisions and his leadership, framing them as failures that necessitate a shift in U.S. strategy.
The piece concluded by predicting a surge in support for Trump following revelations of election misconduct, which could justify amending the Constitution to allow his third term. Bannon speculated that Trump might win all 50 states in 2028, a feat no president has achieved since Ronald Reagan. The article framed these developments as inevitable, despite legal and political hurdles.
