Washington

During a recent White House meeting between President Donald Trump and top congressional leaders, photos revealed 'Trump 2028' hats on the president's desk. The appearance of these hats, which reference a potential third presidential term, drew attention as such a term is prohibited by the US Constitution.

House Minority Leader Jeffries commented that the hats seemed to appear randomly during the meeting. When asked about the hats, Vice President JD Vance declined to comment, and the meeting proceeded with its agenda to address a possible government shutdown.
