"No, I don't. I think that will be, that will be it," Trump said when journalist Sharyl Attkisson asked him if he'd run again.
The comment was notable both because Trump seemed to rule out a fourth bid for the White House and because he rarely admits that he could legitimately lose an election. Trump normally insists that could only happen if there were widespread cheating.
Trump would be 82 in 2028, a year older than President Joe Biden is now. Biden bowed out of the race in July following his disastrous debate performance and months of being hammered by Trump and other conservatives as being too old and erratic for the job.
Attkisson interviewed Trump for her show "Full Measure." Also during the 22-minute interview, Trump defended his record on the coronavirus pandemic. He took credit for the development of the COVID-19 vaccines developed during his presidency while also saying "they're doing studies on the vaccines and we're going to find out" if they are safe.
Trump acknowledged Republicans have become skeptical about the vaccines even as Democrats trust them.
