Donald Trump is freezing out future GOP presidential hopefuls as he goes full force in his efforts to be elected to an unconstitutional third term, MSNBC pundits said on Saturday.
Former Republican Rep. Carlos Curbelo (FL) appeared on MSNBC over the weekend, and was asked about Trump's website selling "Trump 2028" merchandise.
The host, Trump's longtime acquaintance Rev. Al Sharpton, said that Trump's "trolling" is "freezing up the Republican field at a time when presidential hopefuls might begin laying the groundwork for a future campaign."

Curbelo encouraged viewers to take Trump at his word, saying, "This is definitely something that people and legal experts and lawyers should be watching because at some point, the same way a lot of organizations and people with standing have gone to the courts and challenged the administration, the president, on a number of issues, this might be the big one."
"I take him seriously," the analyst added. "I do think he would be interested in finding a way to run for a third term, so I wouldn't dismiss it."
