Former President Barack Obama ruled out running for public office again in any capacity as President Trump’s personal website continues to sell “Trump 2028” hats.Last March, Trump said he would like to run against Obama for president but added that he wasn’t sure if it could happen, given that the 22nd Amendment to the U.S. Constitution limits presidents to two terms. The amendment was adopted in March of 1947.
“I mean, I guess technically I could run for, you know, city council or something, but I’m not in elected office. I don’t have levers of power. I’m term limited out,” Obama said.
“And by the way, I believe in the Constitution and also I believe in my marriage and Michelle would divorce me, if I, even if I could run again,” he added, referencing the 22nd Amendment.
Obama also said that he has “always believed” that leaders have to “lift up” others and empower them to lead in the future.
