Donald Trump was the 45th and is the 47th president of the United States. He was first elected president in 2016, lost the 2020 election and was elected to a second nonconsecutive term in 2024. Trump has repeatedly raised the possibility of remaining in office for more than two terms, despite the Twenty-second Amendment to the United States Constitution prohibiting any person being elected president more than twice. Trump has made inconsistent statements around this topic, sometimes claiming to be joking about the possibility or using it to antagonize his opponents.
