Thought experiment: Assume Trump loses to Biden this year. Who's the favorite for the 2028 Republican nomination? Donald Trump.

I've been telling everyone who says "how long are the Dems gonna hold Trump over our heads?" that Trump ran before 2016 and he'll run until he's no longer legally able or dead. We have to get used to it.

I think it's rather generous to think that Trump will still be around in 2028.

Long before 2028, Trump's accelerating physical and mental decline will make it impossible for him to make public appearances.

Itโ€™s probably not a popular opinion but I think one party or the other wins massive margins in the congress & the presidency in 2028. Iโ€™m not sure how that will shake up but I think weโ€™re going to get some direction in 2028, good or bad.

It has been by running assumption that Trump would try to run again in 2028 regardless of if he wins or loses this year.

Hard disagree. Probably Don Jr, if not him, then Eric or Ivanka.

My prediction several months ago was 2024 wonโ€™t wind up being Trump vs Biden, due to health. Heck in 2028 there might be 2 GOP parties!

Since Trump's a narcissist who enjoys shattering political norms, values loyalty above all else and just made his daughter-in-law the co-chair of the RNC, why is no one talking about the possibility of him naming Don Jr as his Veep and trying to establish a dynasty.

Trump, if he wins, will challenge the two term constitutionality as well. Trump will be running for president as long as heโ€™s not in prison, and likely doing so as a way to continue to stay out of prison. There is no limit to this.
