US President Donald Trump sparked attention at the White House Correspondents’ Association dinner when he joked about running for a fourth term, despite the constitutional ban. The remark drew laughter from the audience, but also highlighted the ongoing discussion about presidential term limits.
The dinner, which celebrates press freedom and honours journalism, took place three months after the first event was cancelled due to a shooting. Trump’s quip comes as he continues to hint at future political ambitions, though the 22nd Amendment prohibits any president from being elected more than twice.
The comment is unlikely to lead to any serious constitutional challenge, but it underscores Trump’s tendency to test political norms. The White House has not issued an official response to the joke.
