Even if he loses the current election, US President Donald Trump can return to the White House, according to several media reports.
The results of the US presidential elections have not yet been announced, despite indications that Democrat Joe Biden is leading over Republican president, but there is even a little chance for the latter to win a second term.
Even if he loses the election, there is an opportunity for Trump according to the US Constitution.
How will that happen?
The Twenty-second Amendment of the Constitution stipulates that: “No person may be elected to the office of president for more than two terms,” but the constitution says nothing about two non-consecutive terms of president.
In the US’s history, there is a precedent in which the President of the United States ruled for two non-consecutive terms, as President Grover Cleveland assumed power between 1885 and 1889, and the second period was between 1893 and 1897.
The Boston Herald news site quoted political strategists as saying that he has a good chance if he will run in the 2024 election.
"Anyone who thinks Donald Trump will quietly go to Trump Tower in New York is delusional," said Scott Ferson, a strategic expert in the Democratic Party.
"I would not be surprised if he decides to run again," said Republican strategist Mike Dennehy.
This hypothesis was reinforced by the tweet of Trump's eldest son, Thursday, in which he hinted at the possibility of his father running for the presidential elections in 2024.
Donald Trump Jr. said: "Do not worry (dad), we will fight, and they will see it as something normal," expressing his criticism of the absence of Republican preparations for the upcoming elections.
A former adviser to Trump, called Piran Lanza, said the president would be in good shape if he wanted to run after four years, according to the British newspaper, the Independent.
President Roosevelt was the only president who managed to win four US presidential elections, ruled the country for 12 years, between 1933 and 1945, and died in power.
In 1947, the Twenty-second Amendment to the US Constitution was passed, which prohibits US presidents from holding office for more than two terms.
