President Donald Trump said he „probably“ won’t run for a third term during a CNBC interview, while also touting his tariff policies and trade deals.
President Donald Trump answered Tuesday whether he would try to campaign for the White House a fourth time around.
During a phone interview on CNBC’s „Squawk Box“, Trump was discussing Bureau of Labor Statistics job numbers that he argues were „rigged“ during the 2024 presidential election to inflate former President Joe Biden’s economic performance. While discussing gerrymandering, Trump said he „got the highest vote in the history of Texas“ – a claim CNBC anchorman Joe Kernen initially challenged but then admitted a network fact-check showed Trump did get the highest number of votes in Texas.
„I got the highest vote in the history of Texas, a record that they say won’t be beaten unless I run again“, Trump said.

CNBC anchorwoman Rebecca Quick interjected, „Are you going to run again? The Constitution…“
„No, probably not“, Trump responded. „Probably not.“
„And you’re not going to, and you’re not going to fire Jay Powell“, Kernen added, referencing tensions between Trump and Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell.
