President Donald Trump has said that he will not be running for re-election in 2028 if his presidential bid is unsuccessful this November.
However, Trump is confident that it’s a decision he will never be faced with.
In an interview with Sharyl Atkisson on Sunday’s “Full Measure,” Trump said he will beat Democrat nominee Kamala Harris this year, making the 2024 election his last presidential campaign.
“If you’re not successful this time, do you see yourself running again in four years?” Atkisson asked.
“No, I don’t. No, I don’t,” Trump said.
“I think that that will be, that will be it.
“I don’t see that at all.”
Trump continued by explaining that he expects to be successful with his current campaign.
“…hopefully, we’re gonna be successful,” Trump added.

Polls currently show a very tight race between Trump and Harris.
The election is likely going to come down to just a handful of swing states.
In many swing states, there is little distance between the two candidates in the polls.
However, some experts have been raising concerns over a potential Harris victory.
As Slay News reported, a prominent hedge fund billionaire is warning investors that he believes the stock market will severely crash if Harris wins the election in November.
John Paulson, the CEO and founder of Paulson and Co., is urging investors to prepare to sell their stock market shares in case Harris wins.
Should Harris beat Trump, Paulson believes people should protect their investments by moving their money into gold and cash.
Paulson, one of the most prominent names in high finance, is perhaps best known for making billions by betting against the subprime mortgage lending market in 2007.
He told Liz Claman that he would be “very concerned” if Harris wins the White House and pursues the tax plans and economic policies she’s outlined.
A Harris win “would cause mass selling of almost everything – stocks, bonds, homes, art – I think it would result in a crash in the markets and an immediate, pretty quick recession,” he noted.
“I think if Harris was elected, I would pull my money from the market,” he explained.
“I’d go into cash, and I’d go into gold.”
