Summary

The Trump Store released $50 “Trump 2028” hats Thursday, sparking backlash online as Trump has repeatedly hinted at running for a third term.

“I have had more people ask me to have a third term,” Trump said on March 31, claiming the 2020 election was “totally rigged.”

Steve Bannon said he's exploring “five or six different alternatives” to enable a third run.

Critics on social media called it “insane” and a sign of “fascist” ambitions. Though barred by the 22nd Amendment, Trump could run again if it were overturned by Congress and the states. However, it would require a two-thirds vote of Congress and three-fourths vote of the states.

I think I'd be surprised if he lived that long. I know he's "in perfect health" but that's getting quite up there.

Could be a major grift, could be a very serious motion to run again, we don't know what's real because he'll try anything and knows his shit licking supporters will be right behind him to thank him. I'm skeptical but I'm ready to face the worst.

Some day, if conscious beings have access to our history, they may mistake Idiocracy as a documentary. I'm only kind of joking

How can he possibly sell $50 hats? Hasn't he sucked poor white conservatives dry yet? They've bought plenty of merch and crypto meme coins already.
