NEW DELHI — Donald Trump has dropped another hint at a White House campaign in 2024, with the former US president telling Indian television that a run for office would “make a lot of people very happy”.
“Everyone wants me to run. I am leading in the polls,” Trump said in an excerpt of an interview with NDTV to be broadcast in full later on Thursday.
“In every poll, in Republican polls and in Democrat polls, and I will make a decision in the very near future, I suspect. And I think that a lot of people are going to be very happy,” he added.
The billionaire former reality TV star, 76, also repeated false claims that the 2020 election in which he lost to current President Joe Biden was rigged.
“There is tremendous proof, there is tremendous evidence,” Trump said.
The Republican has faced intense legal scrutiny over his efforts to overturn the results of the poll and over an attack on the US Capitol by his supporters on January 6 last year.
Since leaving office, he has remained America’s most divisive figure, continuing to sow falsehoods that he won the vote.
He is currently under investigation for potential mishandling of classified documents, with the FBI raiding his Florida home last month.
Trump has denied wrongdoing and called the raid “one of the most egregious assaults on democracy in the history of our country”.
In a speech on Saturday in Pennsylvania he hit back at assertions by Biden that he and his supporters are undermining US democracy, calling Biden an “enemy of the state”.
He will run and he will win.
Cool. So you can appoint some more Bill Barrs?
You can always vote democrat.
Sounds exactly like Biden
Will crawl naked thru 2 miles of broken glass to vote for Trump!!!
Those joining lockstep in condemning his claims for election fraud have not once looked at the mountains of evidence. They are parrots, parroting their owners’ babblings.
President Trump, could you make Ron your running mate? Thanks.
“he needs to clean house of every current appointee and replace them with ‘his’ people.”
The lower-level staff who aren’t appointed also need to be cleaned out. It’ll be hard, but they need to go, too. He can find a way. (Didn’t he sign some document before he left allowing some ees to be clarified as “F”?)
Very low-level staff can create huge problems, including spying for the other side.
I don’t. I want Trump to retire.
He did A+ for three years.
Then he let America’s enemies take us, and himself, down.
Medical tyranny to a degree never before witnessed. Communist riots sponsored by foreign powers allowed to be let loose. Massive fraud that everyone who was paying attention knew was coming, and no effort was made to stop it despite the 2018 EO giving precisely the powers needed to have done so. Then, to follow up, abandoning the grassroots once he was out of office. The only real GOP victory post 2016 was Virginia 2021 and he gave no assistance whatsoever to anyone - not the statewides, not the legislative contests.
Time to wake up and realize that Donald J. Trump is not up to the job of protecting us. He failed. And failing again spells the final end for the USA.
Trump took millions from Virginia for election integrity purposes.
He contributed nothing to the ONLY CURRENT KNOWN EFFECTIVE SOLUTION. I must re-emphasize this: there is only one known effective solution for election integrity and that was what GOPers in Virginia did in 2021. And Trump had nothing to do with it.
Oh?
Twitter followers.
WATCH
And the GOP will *regrettably* use this as an excuse to keep him off the primary ballots.
just my 2¢
That would be too quick and final. My idea of retribution is slower and more painful, and also pure fantasy.
“Everyone?”
AFP is a wire service like AP.
crAP = US, crAFP = France. It almost sounds French.
"Il travaille comme journoliste pour crAFP! Merde!"
“The billionaire former reality TV star, 76, also repeated false claims”
Their stylebooks must all require that Trump claims be immediately labeled “false”. Supporting evidence for that label is unnecessary, perhaps even forbidden. All we need to know is that Trump=false.
Apparently when you vote Republican you are voting Democrat. Jes sayin
Magra Republicans
Magna Republicans
Magla Republicans
and those are just what my wife and I have witnessed.
Near as I can tell, there isn’t a single good person up there to choose from.
He might need to cast a wider net, start looking at local Sherrifs... FReepers.
I’d volunteer to head up the CDC.
You can head up the FBI. I would be needing your support for some investigations.
