At a minimum, Trump is trolling the Left/DemonRats big time. He’s already driven Pelosi insane (literally) & I think there are more than a few in politics & the media that he’s driving off the mental cliff. If there really are viable plans for the WH before 2024, then great & I hope they work out, but I’m not holding my breath. These days, I only get excited when I see action, action, action & seeing may then translate into believing. In the meanwhile I’m thoroughly enjoying the trolling. :-)
Trump isn’t trolling anyone and didn’t say anything about being President before 2024. The author of the article is trolling
Personally I think it’s just an off the cuff remark...
He could also be trolling like you suggest. I don’t know really.
