Republican President Donald Trump said on Sunday he was not joking about seeking a third presidential term, which is barred by the U.S. Constitution, but that it was too early to think about doing so.

Trump, who took office on January 20 for his second, non-consecutive White House term, has made vague allusions to seeking a third one but addressed it directly on Sunday in a telephone interview with NBC News.

“No, I’m not joking. I’m not joking,” Trump said, but “it is far too early to think about it.”

“There are, there are methods which you could do it, as you know,” he said. He declined to elaborate on any specific methods.

      Nah, how about blue states take on the name “USA” then declare red states to be treacherous states engaging in rebellion. They are the ones going against the constitution, afterall. Better legitimacy to convince the military to side with the Pro-Constitution forces (Blue States).
