Key Notes
Jiang says Trump is intent on a third term and that the most obvious route is to run for vice president while a son such as Don Jr. or Eric Trump heads the ticket.
Jiang speculates that if Trump ran as a vice-presidential candidate in 2028, Obama might mirror the tactic on the Democratic side, creating a Trump-versus-Obama spectacle.
Jiang predicts that in 2028 Trump could run as the Republican vice-presidential candidate while Obama could run as the Democratic vice-presidential candidate, with the race functioning as Trump versus Obama and ending in an easy Trump win.
Jiang predicts that in 2028 the meaningful race could be Trump versus Obama even if both men appear as vice-presidential candidates, and he says Trump would win easily in that matchup.
The host questions whether a president who has already served two terms could legally run again as vice president, using Jiang's scenario to probe the constitutional edge case.
