Former President Donald Trump files to run in 2024

[Stargeezr]

RIP Republican party. This lying piece of trash, wants to run again, so I hope the party get

tossed into the garbage. Anyone who would vote for this guy has much morals as he does.

  Trump can barely tell the truth at anytime. I hope the guy in Florida runs against Trump and

beats him soundly. I am also not a Biden fan and hope that someone else runs for his position as well.

The Divided States of America, is how I see that country right now. I hope that all the women in America

remember the Republicans stance on abortion when they all vote at the next federal election.

Activists have lamented that waiting for an indictment has left them hopeless. But according to "The View's" Sunny Hostin, sources she knows inside the Justice Department said that an indictment is coming down for Trump in the next 30 to 90 days.

Alyssa Farah Griffin agreed she's heard the same thing from her sources.

I'm from the UK; can only imagine your laws are different to ours.

You certainly couldn't run for office whilst in prison.

I have no affinity to either party 

Replublican or Democrat, or their policies, but can say this.

In UK we see Trump as a 'Nut Job'

Islington is not the UK.

Translation: "I know somebody who knows somebody who said . . . "

Sounds like "next week is infrastructure week!"  Slimey reality TV promises to entice you to watch the next episode. 

I'm not an activist, but from what we've had to sit through I suspect this orange-faced business will still be an issue in the 2032 presidential race, providing he is still alive and is not a semi-vegetable being fed pablum by a nursemaid.  The promise of a DT indictment is as valid as the notion of bipartisanship in US Congress.  Prove me wrong, General Garland!

It's so funny. Low Energy 45 thinks that if he declares himself a candidate, he cannot be prosecuted for the crimes he committed.

You really think the two are the same? OR are you just avoiding the issue...  The Harv has been found guilty of sexual assault, and rightly so. Last time I checked the same could not be said for the Bad Orange Man.

 

Or do you dispute my characterization of the entertainment industry as a sordid world where women trade sexual favours for work/exposure?

True. I noticed no refutation of the list of accomplishments during the Trump years in the White House. Just the usual generalities and hysteria.

 

Now having said that, I dont want him to run again. If he DOES carry on, I dont want him to win the nomination.  I frankly can't think of a way he can expand the GOP voter base enough to regain the Presidency.

The fact that he has a lot of energy compared to the senile guy in the cseat should be enough to clinch it for him. 

Even before he cheated to win the election, he couldn't even remember trumps fist name, calling him George.

Actually, the topic is Trump running in the 2024 election. Therefore, the 2024 election is also part of the thread. Trump is not the only one running in that.

 

I know you'd like every post on this forum to be restricted to "Orange Man bad" and removed if it does not conform to that rule, but unfortunately that's not the way things work. 

 

Hope that clears things up...

Trump is under DOJ and State Prosecutor investigation for multiple crimes while in office.

 

These investigations are widely reported, as are the facts of individuals being subpoenaed to give testimony, including Trump himself.

 

And of course there’s the glaringly unmissable case in which the DOJ obtained a legally issued warrant and conducted a legally authorized search of Trump’s property in which top secret documen ration that Trump had no legal right to was recovered. The investigation continues.

 

I don’t expect any Trump supporter to accept these facts, I don’t expect any Trump supporter to agree the warrant to search and the search of Trump’s property were lawful, I don’t expect any Trump supporter to agree with any indictment that might be issued against Trump, I don’t expect any Trump supporter to agree any trial Trump might face is lawful and I certainly don’t expect any Trump supporter to agree to any convictions against Trump from any of the multiple criminal investigations he is under.

 

There is no evidence against Trump that will ever convince his supporters he is a criminal.

 

He was entirely correct when he said he could shoot someone on fifth Avenue and not lose supporters.

 

That’s precisely how cults are.

Me too - his actual record up until the 2020 election was pretty good, despite all of the efforts of the Democrats to turn him over.

 

Trump's real problem came at the election and after that it just got worse. If he could have just conceded - even if he did believe there were problems with the vote - then shut up, let go  and handed over, then this rerun now would have had far more chance of success. I suppose that's what they call it politics.... and Trump is certainly not a politician. 

 

It will be interesting to see how hard the Democrats try to attack him now he has announced. I reckon they'll actually back off for a while.

Why do you think the Dems will back off from attacking Trump? Do they fear him? You might have a point. Maybe it would make strategic sense for the Dems to throw faint praise towards Trump and vote him up in polls to give him a boost in the primaries. Trump is the person the Dems fear the least. Why? Because angry old white men without college degrees are a diminishing demographic and therefore a spent political force.
