Trump ‘fired up’ despite FBI raid, has ‘made up mind’ about 2024 run

Former President Donald Trump remains “very upbeat” and “fired up” despite the FBI’s raid on Mar-a-Lago — and has “made up his mind” about running in 2024, according to a Republican lawmaker who met him late Tuesday.

Rep. Jim Banks was one of nearly a dozen members of the House Republican Study Committee who met Trump, 76, just a day after the shocking raid on his Florida estate.

“He didn’t seem defeated in the least bit — he was very fired up, very upbeat,” Banks told Fox News of the ” great three-hour-long” chat at Trump’s New Jersey golf club, Bedminister.

The former commander-in-chief told the group he “has made up his mind” about his long-teased run, and “enjoyed encouragement” from them to “get the decision out sooner rather than later.”

“The Republican Party is bigger and stronger than ever before because of Donald Trump’s leadership,” insisted the study committee chairman.

Banks joined others in saying that “what happened at Mar-a-Lago unifies Republicans in our outrage.”

“If anything, what the left and the corrupt Biden administration has done will only backfire on them, as they see that the American people stand with President Trump,” he told Fox.

“The House GOP is fighting back. We stand united in outrage against the Biden White House and DOJ, and we stand with President Trump.”

Ours, when he actually officially announces. Would love a Trump/Desantis ticket, the Desantis and Don Jr 2028.

I don’t I really don’t. Once he announces they’ll throw the kitchen sink the living room sofa the bedroom bed at him and everything they have at their powerful disposal. And you know what’s the saddest thing is that they have the power to do it. It’s not going to stop if he announces he’s running the Evil American Gestapo will come after the next best thing is kids! One way or the other they’re gonna bend break force Trump to his knees! They came for his presidency they invaded his home and now they’ll come for his kids! Don’t think for one minute those bastards won’t do it they’re evil.

So what? Let them do it now, 2 years from election day. Better now than oct of '24. We all know what ever they say is BS.

The DOJ would not dare indict Trump after he announces.

Don't be so sure about that! These crazy sonofabitches are sick with communist fever. I believe that they will indict President Trump whether he is a candidate or not.

“I believe that they will indict President Trump whether he is a candidate or not.”

They’ll indict if he’s not a candidate.
They’ll assassinate if he is a candidate (per Bernie Kerik).

It is disappointing to see how little faith people have in the FBI. An FBI confidential human source who has reported reliably in the past claims that Christopher Wray specifically demanded that the agents retrieve one of Melania’s thongs before he goes on vacation.

I believe this, however not sure about most of the GOP + Rino’s.

So much for the moratorium on Trump articles at NY Post. They’re coming out left and right since the raid. It appears Murdoch has had a change of heart.

I fear they will use the JFK Card and assassinate him. Think the FBI can’t? They can do anything and make it look like it was some Muslim nut case who will not mind dying for Allah. That or a Chinese Man “Member of a strange religious cult” Like the guy that got Abe in Japan. Or set up an “accident” of some sort? Shoot down his plane or wreck his car. I read the FBI has a pistol that shoots something that dissolves and causes a heart attack they used on Breitbart. Fiction or fact? The FBI is so powerful nothing can stand against them and survive.

“Don’t be so sure about that! These crazy sonofabitches are sick with communist fever. I believe that they will indict President Trump whether he is a candidate or not.”

So what? States can remove Biden from the presidential ballot. And spare me any specious legal argument that the states can’t do it. We’re in uncharted territory now. Screw the legal crap.

Half the states can accept “Banana Nose” Biden as their banana republic president, while the other half can accept Trump.

Everyone is talking about banana republic, so let’s do banana republic to the max and have two presidents.

I AGREE!

But this time he HAS to fire thousands. Civil Service laws be damned.

Reverse the JFK executive order allowing collective bargains by federal thugs, uh, employees.

Pick a REAL AG and tell McConnell to F off. If Turtle tries to stop his nominations destroy him. Give speeches in KY denouncing him as un-American and a backstabber.

Quit playing nice. DESTROY THR GOP ESTABLISHMENT!
