Most Republicans say Trump should not seek third term: Survey

President Trump has repeatedly said he is mulling ways to get around the Constitution and seek a third term, but a new poll suggests that most Republicans don't support the idea.

The Reuters/Ipsos poll found that 53 percent of Republicans surveyed last week said Trump should not seek a third term. Nearly two-thirds of all respondents agreed Trump, 78, should not run for president again in 2028.

    Trump has repeatedly floated the idea of running again, even though the 22nd Amendment, ratified in 1951 after President Franklin D. Roosevelt was elected to four consecutive terms before dying in office at age 63, prohibits anyone from being elected president more than twice.

    "I’m not joking," Trump told NBC News less than a month ago about seeking a third term, adding that "there are methods" he could use to do it. He later elaborated on his potential fourth president campaign when speaking to reporters aboard Air Force One.

    "I'm not looking at that, but I'll tell you, I have had more people ask me to have a third term, which in a way is a fourth term because the other election — the 2020 election — was totally rigged, so it’s actually sort of a fourth term," Trump said, referring to unfounded claims that he won that race against former President Biden.

    Trump's false assertions about the outcome of the 2020 election ultimately led a crowd of supporters to storm the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, temporarily disrupting the certification of Biden's win.

    The Reuters/Ipsos poll found that Trump's approval rating among respondents has hit its lowest level of his second term at 42 percent. He returned to the White House in January with a 47 percent approval rating, according to Reuters.

    The latest Reuters/Ipsos poll surveyed 4,306 U.S. adults April 16-21. The margin of error 2 percent for all adults and 3 percent for specific groups.
