Donald Trump might joke about the search for a third term – but some of those closest to him don't think it's such a bad idea.
The Witte House of the President, close adviser and former lawyer, Alina Habba, has her thoughts: “The more Trump the better.”
Speaking exclusively with DailyMail.com for her first extensive printing interview since Trump, Habba said she thinks Trump has brought out the prospect in 'Jest'.
Habba and others, however, have not excluded to accept a third Trump period if that came about – even if it is currently against the Constitution.
But a legislator has submitted a proposal to change the 22nd amendment, which would ultimately result in allowing Trump, 78, to serve a third term.
Rep. Andy Ogles (R-tenn.) Brought the joint resolution forward with which an American president cannot be chosen more than three installments.
However, the provisions of the amendment would prevent presidents from running a third term if they already served two consecutive terms – further show how the proposal is specifically aimed at the current president.

Trump has made jokes several times about serving a third term after the loss of 2020, and claimed that Democrats stole his shot at eight consecutive years to make 'America great again'
'No one may be elected more than three times in the office of the president, nor are elected to an additional period after he has been elected in two consecutive terms, and no one who has held the office of President or acted as president, for more than more than Two years of a period that a different person was chosen is chosen more than twice in the office of the president.

This would, for example, stop former President Barack Obama from running a different term.
Only a few days after winning the 2024 presidential election, Trump joked about running a third term during comments for the GOP conference of the house.
In mid -November, Trump returned to Washington, DC to speak with his predecessor in the White House and to meet legislators on Capitol Hill.
“I suspect that I will not run anymore unless you say” He is so good that we have to sort out something else, “said the 78-year-old.
When, exactly a week after taking his second oath from the office, Trump brought the idea to the fore again.
In his Doral Club in Florida, Trump spoke about a third term during a speech in the Republican Republican Republic.
“I raised a lot of money for the next race that I assume I can't use for myself, but I'm not 100% sure,” Trump told House Republicans last week. “I think I can't run anymore.
“Can I run again?” Trump asked in the direction of house speaker Mike Johnson, who had introduced the president just before. “Mike, I better not involve you.”
The House received it as a joke – but it is a proposal that Trump has now repeated several times.
Habba, who spoke with DailyMail.com in the White House on January 29, 2025, suggested that she expects Trump to reach, is four years what other presidents will do in mind
Rep. Andy Ogles (r-tenn.) Introduced a resolution to the congress that would change the 22nd amendment to enable a president to look for a third term if he served two non-subsequent terms earlier. This would release the road for Trump to look for a third term after it has been completed
'Listen, I am all there for Trump. The more Trump the better, “Habba laughed when he was asked about a third term.

She added that Trump will be 'so much' in the next four years that he does not need eight – which suggests that he would do in one term what other presidents will take.
“We are planning to be here and listen here for four years, he has been really involved in politics since 2015 and that has not really changed,” Habba said. “He was always a strong strength for the Republican Party and for America.”
“We have a lot of work to do and we're going,” she sustained.
