Prediction for Trump’s 2nd Term: I believe Trump will announce he will be seeking a third term as president for the 2028 election due to him “being cheated” in 2020. He’ll declare it an “official act” and the supreme spurt will allow him to run. Am I off base with this? What do you think?

It would be up to individual states to not let him on their ballot. SCOTUS has no enforcement ability itself and states run the election.

Couldn't he just sue the states and run it up to the Supreme Court to overturn that? Didn't he already do that with Colorado (I think it was CO).

SCOTUS has no ability to enforce their rulings, especially on other branches and state governments. Compliance with rulings is self-imposed or forced by States, Congress and/or the executive branch, or sometimes just ignored. If a state decided to ignore the "Unlimited Trump" SCOTUS ruling I would think the most likely scenario would be the executive branch agencies (under the President) denying any federal funding they control to the state. It might be interesting to see what happens. A rich state like California pays in more to the fed than they receive back and could try something like diverting all federal tax revenues collected in California to state coffers. Though now since POTUS doesn't have to follow the law for "official acts" Trump could order the US military into Sacramento (California's capital).
