Gavin Newsom Warns Trump Serious About Third TermSaralnama

On [27 [Aug 2025, California Governor Gavin Newsom said Donald Trump is serious about running for a third term as US president, despite the US Constitution banning it. Newsom shared that during a February meeting in the Oval Office, Trump pointed to a portrait of Franklin Roosevelt, the only president who served more than two terms, and talked about a third term. Newsom warned that Trump does not believe in free and fair elections and urged Americans to be alert. Trump has sold "Trump 2028" hats and hinted at running again, though he said earlier this month he would "probably not" run. The US Constitution's 22nd Amendment limits presidents to two terms. Newsom is also campaigning in California to redraw congressional districts to help Democrats. Trump called Newsom "incompetent" after these remarks. The issue has stirred debate about election rules and democracy in the US. (Updated 28 Aug 2025, 12:17 IST; source: link)
