TL;DR

Donald Trump, having won the 2024 presidential election, cannot run for president again in 2028 due to the 22nd Amendment, which limits a person to two terms as U.S. president. This amendment was ratified in 1951 following Franklin D. Roosevelt's four-term presidency. Trump's victory over Kamala Harris in the electoral college with 277 votes marks his second term, which will begin on January 20, 2025.
