Former President Donald Trump delivered his first major speech after leaving office, charting a path forward for the Republican Party and conservatives but suggesting that he might run in 2024.
“I may even decide to beat them for the third time,” he said.
Trump said the conservative movement he created “is far from being over” but did not declare that he would try to run against for president in 2024. “There’s never been a journey more successful,” he remarked, adding that conservatives “will be victorious and stronger and greater than ever before.”
“The future of the Republican Party is as a party that defends the social, economic, and cultural interests and values of working American families—of every race, every color, and every creed. Republicans believe that the needs of everyday citizens must come first,” he said on Sunday at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) in Orlando, Florida.
Republicans over the next four years will be the bulwark against socialism, communism, and Biden administration policies.
“I’m going to continue to fight right by your side,” he said, adding that he won’t create a “brand new party,” adding: “I am not starting a new party.”
Trump has discussed privately running again for president in 2024, according to advisers. The former president has only delivered a few interviews to news outlets since he departed office in January.
“That’s going to be a decision he makes down the road,” Republican National Committee Chair Ronna McDaniel told CBS’s “Face the Nation.”
“I think without question” the Republican Party remains the Trump party, his son Donald Trump Jr., told Fox News on Saturday. “I think you hear it from the voices. I think you see it in the speeches of others that are in government.

Of course, it's not up to Trump who he fights with. Who he fights with is up to us.
If "we" keep electing RINO"s back into power that's obviously not on Trump.
I was one of the first around here to jump on a new Trump launched party bandwagon. Admittedly, a pissed off reaction to the state of politics, and our nation, at that point.
What I (and a majority of us) would like most is getting the communist / marxist / hate america crowd out of power as soon as possible to lesson the damage they would like to do. A close second is getting rid of the globalist's.
And Trump running a 3rd party isn't the way to do it.
In order to get a majority in both Houses of Congress under the banner of a new party would take several election cycles. Perhaps a generation+ even.
We just don't have that kind of time.
It's up to us to elect MAGA minded people not just at the federal level...but also at the state level and it needs to begin with 2022.
IMV, that's what will determine if Trump runs in 2024. Whether or not a significant number of MAGA people are elected or if he would be going back to D.C. to (as you say) fight the same RINO's again.
It's on us.
Partly true.
His little jibe maybe should be reworded to say “I amy let them steal it a second time.”
Much, much younger blood.
Too many 70 and 80 year old dinosaurs in Congress.
Old Man Joe and his elderly cabinet.
John Kerry, the walking corpse.
Nancy, the decrepit old witch
Fineswine, who shuffles her way into the House.
Bernie, the shouting cranky grandpa.
Hopefully, we will see the back of them soon.
I wish I understood these matters.
FR needs some educational threads on the financial topics.
Lou Dobbs was one of the few who helped me understand, and now he’s gone.
I’m almost to the point of ‘term limits’ on the Congress. Why
do we elect them for life?
The President is term limited why not the others. Heck some of them
ol’ coots/cootees make it a life’s profession and they won’t retire so
that new blood can be brought into the system.
