(NewsNation) — Steve Bannon, who served as White House chief strategist, said Tuesday in an interview on NewsNation that he and others are working on ways for President Donald Trump to seek a third term despite constitutional term limits.

“We’re working on it. I think we’ll have a couple of alternatives,” Bannon told NewsNation’s “CUOMO” when asked how Trump could overcome term limits. “We’ll see what the definition of term limit is.”

Bannon expressed confidence in this effort, comparing it to Trump’s 2024 comeback.

“I’m a firm believer that President Trump will run and win again in 2028,” Bannon said.

“We’ve had greater long shots than Trump 2028,” he said, adding that they’re “not prepared to talk about it publicly, but in a couple of months, I think we will be.”

When pressed on whether he was suggesting revolution or overthrow, Bannon rejected that characterization, describing himself as a “huge believer in democracy” while claiming the country is experiencing a “1932-type realignment” comparable to the FDR era.

“We’re in the middle of a 1932-type realignment if we can continue to have populist nationalist policies,” Bannon said. “We have African-Americans coming to our side. We have Hispanics coming to our side.”

He described the current administration’s actions as a “revolution of common sense to deconstruct the administrative state” and claimed anti-democratic forces are working through the courts to “obstruct a sitting president” from fulfilling his executive mandate.

Bannon defends Musk’s role despite differences

Bannon defended Elon Musk’s role in implementing the Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE.

He acknowledged having “huge, almost unbridgeable differences” with Musk on issues including “transhumanism and technology and visas and immigration,” but praised Musk’s support for their efforts.

“He backed our play,” Bannon said, mentioning Musk contributed financially to their voter outreach and supported the merger of “Bobby Kennedy’s Make America Healthy Again with MAGA.”

Bannon described Musk’s DOGE initiative as deploying “shock troops” in a “trauma-inducing effort into the administrative state” that, while “not pretty,” has been “pretty effective.”

Bannon calls out federal judges for blocking Trump’s orders

Bannon criticized federal judges who have blocked administration policies, particularly regarding immigration enforcement, calling for their impeachment.

“More of these radical, neo-Marxist judges that are working in coordination ought to be impeached,” Bannon said, referring specifically to a judge who halted deportations under the Alien Enemies Act, which Trump invoked.

He accused the judge of “stepping into President Trump’s role” as commander-in-chief and “making command decisions that a military commander would make.”

When questioned on how patriotism aligns with attacking government institutions, Bannon responded that reforming institutions was central to Trump’s mandate.

“The American people understand that our institutions have to be either purged or they have to be reformed,” Bannon said, “everything from the Justice Department to the FBI to the intelligence community to the Pentagon, across the board.”
