US President Donald Trump has not ruled out the possibility of seeking a third term, saying in a media interview there are "methods" to make it possible.



NBC News described Trump's remarks in the phone interview on Sunday as "some of his most extensive comments to date about serving a third term."



The US Constitution prohibits anyone from being elected to the office of the president more than twice. Amending the two-term limit requires overcoming significant hurdles.



NBC asked if he had been presented with plans to allow him to seek a third term. Trump replied, "There are methods which you could do it."



When asked whether one such method might involve Vice President JD Vance running for president and then passing on the role to Trump after winning, he responded, "that's one," and added, "there are others too."



Trump said a lot of people want him to hold office for a third term. He added, "But, I mean, I basically tell them we have a long way to go," because it's still early in his administration.



He said he is now "focused on the current."
