Dershowitz says he told Trump that US Constitution not clear if he can serve third term

Retired Harvard Law professor Alan Dershowitz told President Donald Trump that the United States Constitution is not clear on whether a president could serve a third term, according to a report by the Wall Street Journal. Dershowitz discussed the issue with Trump while reviewing a draft of his book on the constitutional question, noting that the language leaves room for interpretation. The conversation gained attention after Republican donor Miriam Adelson referenced Dershowitz's comments at a White House event, expressing enthusiasm for the possibility of Trump serving another term and pledging significant financial support if he chooses to run. Dershowitz clarified that while the topic is intellectually interesting, he does not believe Trump will actually seek a third term.
