Trump says 3rd term isn't a joke, despite term limit

Trump did not rule out seeking a third term for president, regardless of it going against the Constitutional two-term limit, telling NBC’s Kristen Welker on Sunday, “There are methods which you could do it."

NBC News asked Trump about a possible scenario in which Vice President JD Vance would run for office and then pass the role to Trump. The president responded by saying “that’s one” method.

“A lot of people want me to do it,” Trump said Sunday. “But, I mean, I basically tell them we have a long way to go, you know, it’s very early in the administration.”

When asked whether he has been presented with plans to allow him to seek a third term, Trump said, “There are methods which you could do it.”

Trump has previously commented on running for a third term a few times, with Republicans viewing his comments as jokes or the president trolling his critics.

Wisconsin Attorney General Josh Kaul on Sunday appealed to the state’s Supreme Court to block Elon Musk's and America PAC's planned Sunday night giveaway of $1 million apiece to two attendees of Musk's event in Green Bay.

"The Court should grant this Petition and issue an immediate temporary injunction that (1) prohibits Respondents from any further promotion of the million dollar gifts to attendees of the planned event on Sunday, March 30; (2) prohibits Respondents from making any payments to Wisconsin electors conditioned on voting; and (3) prohibits all actions by Respondents taken in furtherance of a planned" violation of a state law that Kaul argues Musk and America PAC are violating with the planned giveaway, Kaul wrote in one of the documents filed.

Musk announced Thursday on social media that he would "personally hand over two checks for a million dollars each" to voters who participated in the Supreme Court election. His political action committee had already awarded $1 million to Scott Ainsworth, a mechanical engineer from Green Bay, for signing its petition.

Musk deleted the post Friday and later clarified that the money would go to people who would serve as "spokesmen" for an online petition against "activist judges."

Wisconsin law makes it a felony to offer anything of value to induce a voter to cast a ballot or refrain from voting. Violators face fines up to $10,000, imprisonment up to 3 ½ years, or both.

Musk and Trump are backing conservative Waukesha County Judge Brad Schimel in the election. Schimel told WISN 12 News on Friday that he has "no plans" to attend Sunday's rally with Musk.

Democrats are backing liberal Dane County Judge Susan Crawford.

The race has already broken spending records for a judicial contest in the U.S., with funds raised exceeding $81 million. Musk has been the largest financial contributor, though billionaire George Soros and Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker have donated a combined $3.5 million to Crawford's campaign.

Trump told NBC News in an early Sunday morning call that he's "very angry" and "pissed off" at Russian President Vladimir Putin for criticizing the credibility of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s leadership.

Trump also told NBC that he and Putin plan to speak this week.

In a wide-ranging interview with NBC News, President Donald Trump reportedly said he "couldn’t care less" if some automakers raise prices for consumers because of his sweeping auto tariffs that will take effect next week – and he again stood by national security adviser Mike Waltz despite the Signal group chat fiasco.

Regarding the tariffs that are set to take effect next week on imported vehicles, Trump said he didn't warn the CEOs of auto companies not to raise prices in the wake of his tariffs.

"No, I never said that," he told NBC's Kristen Welker. "I couldn't care less if they raise prices, because people are going to start buying American-made cars."

In the wake of the Signal messaging app leak, Trump said he still has confidence in Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and National Security Adviser Mike Waltz.

"I don't fire people because of fake news and because of witch hunts," Trump said.

Regarding Vice President JD Vance's recent visit to Greenland -- amid Trump's repeated suggestions the U.S. should take over the island nation for national security purposes -- Trump said "there's a good possibility" the U.S. could strike a deal.

"I never take military force off the table," he said. "But I think there's a good possibility that we could do it without military force."
