I will note that one of the several possible ways that Trump could become president in 2029 is for Vance to be nominated, and if he wins, appoint Trump his vice-president, then step aside. Apparently this is one way to side-step the 22nd amendment, as it only refers to running for president, not being president, for a third term, and apparently (or at least arguably) is completely legal (the legal system being what it is).

Other ways include running for president again, ignoring the amendment, and seeing if anyone dares to challenge him; attempting to overturn the amendment; and refusing to leave office, backed by the many loyal supporters that he has spent the last four years building up.

The 'switch places' tactic seems the least problematic, and most likely to be successful.
