Pam Bondi, President Donald Trump's attorney general said Sunday the president would "probably" leave the White House after his second term is completed.

But she left the door slightly open toward him serving another four years, telling "Fox News Sunday," "I think he's going to be finished probably after this term," and saying it would be a "heavy lift" to change the Constitution to allow Trump to serve another four years.

Meanwhile, Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced Saturday that he was revoking all visas to South Sudanese passport holders "due to the failure of South Sudan's transitional government to accept the return of its repatriated citizens in a timely manner."

Trump says his team is 'taking bids' for TikTok as deadline looms

As the April 5 deadline that President Donald Trump set for TikTok to find a non-Chinese buyer or face a ban in the United States nears -- the president said he has a team "essentially taking bids" for ownership of the app.

“There's tremendous interest in TikTok. The decision is going to be my decision. As you know, through Congress, they've given me the power to make the decision," Trump told reporters Sunday evening.

TikTok Inc. and ByteDance Ltd. filed a Petition for Review of the Constitutionality of the Protecting Americans from Foreign Adversary Controlled Applications Act.

"We have a great team of people taking, essentially taking bids. We have a lot of people that want to buy TikTok. We're dealing with China also on it, because they may have something to do with it, and we’ll see how that goes," he added.

This comes after Trump pushed back the initial January deadline for TikTok's Chinese parent company ByteDance to sell the app.

"The automakers are going to make a lot of money. American automakers or international automakers, if you're talking about them, are going to build in the United States," Trump said.

"Outside of the United States, that's going to be up to them. I don't care too much about that. But you have a lot of companies coming into the country to manufacture cars," he added.

Trump talks running for a 3rd term, despite term limit

Trump did not rule out seeking a third term for president, regardless of it going against the Constitutional two-term limit, telling NBC’s Kristen Welker on Sunday, “There are methods which you could do it."

NBC News asked Trump about a possible scenario in which Vice President JD Vance would run for office and then pass the role to Trump. The president responded by saying “that’s one” method.

“A lot of people want me to do it,” Trump said Sunday. “But, I mean, I basically tell them we have a long way to go, you know, it’s very early in the administration.”

When asked whether he has been presented with plans to allow him to seek a third term, Trump said, “There are methods which you could do it.”

Trump has previously commented on running for a third term a few times, with Republicans viewing his comments as jokes or the president trolling his critics.
