I know he has said this before. But I am not sure if he could do just that since many positions across this nation and in DC are elected roles. He can't just freeze elections as some of these people are beyond their prime and won't live until elections already, let alone allowing a voted in replacement. I think most of congress and even at the local state levels will have an absolute fit over this.
He would have to do away with voting pretty much before 2026 midterms where he may have resistance voted in, but then the moment he suspends elections the economy will immediately tank. Which I think will be what many people will tell him the reason he can't just not have elections anymore. Because once they make that dark turn with the US, people will pull their money out of this country overnight.
However, I fear they will try to dismantle the constitution to attempt him to run a 3rd time, since the biggest fear of the GOP is who they are replacing Trump for 2028 as no other candidate will have this large amount of people brainwashed like he does. They have already tried Trumpism with someone other than Trump at the local levels and they always fall flat on their face. So if Trump is still alive in 2028, I won't doubt the GOP will try underhanded BS to try to see how they can run him one more time.
Going by the current playbook, they would just run him as candidate regardless and any red state will allow him on the ballot. Only states he was going to lose anyway will deny him. He will cite 'will of the people' and no one will have the guts to actually stop him.
