BlockBeats News, July 25th. On the evening of July 24th local time, President Trump attended the 2026 White House Correspondents' Dinner at the Washington DC Waldorf Hotel (originally scheduled for April 25th but postponed due to recent events). Towards the end of his speech, Trump put on a red "Trump 2028" hat and jokingly said, "I am pleased to announce my intention - this is an exclusive scoop - I plan to run for a fourth term as President of the United States, and I will do it." He then added, "It should be easy, I've been getting better and better at running for president."

During this segment, Trump reiterated his claim that he "actually won the 2020 election" - the media later clarified in their reports that "he did not win," debunking this false statement.

According to the 22nd Amendment to the United States Constitution, a president can only be elected to two terms. Trump is currently serving his second and constitutionally allowed final term, theoretically ineligible to legally run for a "fourth term."
