In a Truth Social post on November 28, 2025, Donald Trump hinted at running for the U.S. presidency in 2028, sending shockwaves through the Republican Party. The announcement has sparked both excitement and skepticism, with some hailing it as a potential game-changer and others dismissing it as a publicity stunt. While Trump's own eligibility for the presidency is uncertain due to the 22nd Amendment, which prohibits an individual from being elected president more than twice, his son Donald Trump Jr. has seen a surge in popularity. According to a recent survey by The Independent, Trump Jr. has narrowed the gap with front-runner J.D. Vance, now trailing by just 10 points. This development has sparked speculation that the Trump family may attempt to maintain its grip on power through a different family member. Meanwhile, senior Republicans are repositioning themselves, with United States Secretary of State Marco Rubio reportedly backing Vance as a potential candidate. The situation is setting the stage for a generational handoff within the GOP, with the 'MAGA brand' still exerting significant influence. The AI-generated image accompanying Trump's post, featuring him holding a board with 'TRUMP 2028, YES!' written on it, has sparked further debate about the authenticity of the announcement. As the 2028 Republican primary heats up, one thing is clear: the Trump name remains a powerful force in American politics.
