On July 27, U.S. President Donald Trump posted several images on the social network Truth Social captioned "2028," hinting at participation in the presidential race.

In one image, the U.S. president is shown wearing a cap with the words "Trump 2028" and the slogan Make America Great Again against the backdrop of a flag.

Another image is styled like a horror movie poster: Trump walks in semi-darkness, with the words "give enemies nightmares" at the top and "Trump 2028" at the bottom. In the third frame, the president throws a cap with the same inscription.

In another image, he stands next to a television showing a speech by former U.S. President Joe Biden. The fifth image shows him against the backdrop of a rocket with the captions "space commander" and "a new era begins among the stars."
