Fact Check Debunks Obama 2028 Run Rumor
February 22, 2026·3 days ago·via news.meaww.com
Social media buzz claims former President Barack Obama is gearing up for a 2028 presidential bid, but it's pure fiction - the 22nd Amendment bars him after two terms, no exceptions without a constitutional overhaul that ain't happening. The hoax started with a parody X post from Hoops Crave on February 21, racking up millions of views as gullible users bought the "one last dance" nonsense. Even AI fact-checker Grok shut it down fast, confirming zero evidence of any Obama announcement.
