Trump Makes Liberal Media Melt Down With Hilarious 2028 Merch Drop
President Donald Trump — in his second non-consecutive term as the 47th President of the United States — has once again ignited media hysteria, this time with a bold new line of “Trump 2028” merchandise.
The limited-edition drop features t-shirts and hats with the tagline “Rewrite the Rules,” poking the hornet’s nest of constitutional purists and triggering outrage across left-wing media platforms.
Eric Trump helped kick off the campaign, posting a photo of himself proudly wearing a bright red “Trump 2028” hat with the caption: “A wonderful compliment! #NeverSayNever.”
The Trump Store is already selling shirts for $36 in red, navy, and gray — proudly made in America and 100% cotton — with slogans that dare the political class to try and stop him.

While the 22nd Amendment prohibits any person from being elected to the presidency more than twice, Trump has openly floated the idea of finding a legal workaround. During a morning phone interview in March with NBC News’ Kristen Welker, President Trump declined to dismiss the possibility of pursuing a third term—despite the constitutional two-term limit.
“There are methods” to make it happen, Trump said, without elaborating on specifics. The president pivoted to his popularity within the Republican Party.
“You have to start by saying, I have the highest poll numbers of any Republican for the last 100 years,” Trump said. “We’re in the high 70s in many polls, in the real polls, and you see that. And, and you know, we’re very popular. And you know, a lot of people would like me to do that.”
Still, Trump indicated that any real decision is far off. “I basically tell them, we have a long way to go, you know, it’s very early in the administration,” he added.
White House Communications Director Steven Cheung weighed in on the speculation at the time, emphasizing that President Trump remains focused on his current term and the challenges facing the country.
“Americans overwhelmingly approve and support President Trump and his America First policies,” Cheung said in a statement. “As the President said, it’s far too early to think about it and he is focused on undoing all the hurt Biden has caused and Making America Great Again.”
During the phone call, Welker pressed President Trump on whether he had thought about a potential workaround—specifically, having Vice President JD Vance run in 2028, win the presidency, and then step aside to allow Trump to return to office. “Well, that’s one,” Trump responded. “But there are others too. There are others.”
The U.S. Constitution, through the 22nd Amendment ratified in 1951, clearly limits a president to two elected terms in office. It states, “No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice,” effectively barring anyone from winning the presidency a third time.
The amendment also addresses cases where someone assumes the presidency without being elected—such as a vice president stepping in mid-term. In those cases, if the individual serves more than two years of the previous president’s term, they may only be elected once more. While the amendment prohibits being elected more than twice, it does not explicitly ban a former president from holding office again through other means, such as succession.
This has led to speculative scenarios—like the idea of a vice president stepping aside to allow a former president to return—that many legal scholars believe would face significant constitutional challenges and almost certainly be decided by the Supreme Court.
