There is. The Constitution isn’t clear on how the 22nd (anyone who has served two terms is ineligible to be elected president) and the 12th (anyone ineligible to be president is ineligible to be Vice President) interact. Notice the difference in wording, the 22nd is specifically about being elected president, not being president.
So theoretically he could be elected as VP and have his running mate resign to give him the presidency again. The only thing that would really stop that is a Supreme Court ruling, but the Supreme Court is mostly Trump appointees.
Or of course he could take a page from his buddy Bukele and have the Supreme Court say “nah you’re good to be elected again” despite the Constitution clearly saying otherwise.

I don’t even think the resign part is necessary for the right to continue business as usual.
