There’s still money months to go before the presidential election in November, but presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump is wondering if a win will start his second or third term as president.
Trump spoke Saturday to members of the the National Rifle Association (NRA) on Saturday and speculated on the possibilities, The Hill reported.
“You know, FDR 16 years, almost 16 years, he was four-term. I don’t know, are we going to be considered three term or two term?” he asked. “Are we three term or two term if we win?”
One audience member shouted “three.”
In the past, Trump has stated he would not seek another term should he win in November.
Presidents are limited to two terms, per the 22nd Amendment, which was enacted after President Franklin D. Roosevelt was elected to four terms.
In an interview with Time magazine, Trump said he would retire after his second term and not challenge the 22nd Amendment.
“I wouldn’t be in favor of a challenge. Not for me. I wouldn’t be in favor of it at all. I intend to serve four years and do a great job. And I want to bring our country back. I want to put it back on the right track,” the 77-year-old said.
“Our country is going down. We’re a failing nation right now. We’re a nation in turmoil,” he said.
