What is the time frame for buying back stocks after short selling?
In other words, how long can it be to buy back stocks after short selling a stock? Can you short sell any high stock and wait for the next presidential election to buy back?

There is no time frame. Just like you can buy and hold a stock forever, you can short a stock without buying it back forever.
EDIT: Regarding interest, my broker only charges interest if you sold short and then the stock goes up. If you sold short and the stock is down, they do not charge you interest.
