Trump reveals he’s ‘100% thinking about running again in 2024
Trump strongly criticized President Joe Biden following the commander in chief's speech to Congress overviewing his achievements during his first 100 days in office and his ambitions for further legislation and government action. Trump aimed Biden over proposed tax increases for the wealthy, his policy toward China and the influx of undocumented migrants at the southern border.
Trump also said that he is certainly weighing running for the presidency again. Asked by host Maria Bartiromo about his plans, he quickly responded, "Yes, 100 percent.” He added, "And the polls show that everybody wants me to do it. One hundred percent I'm thinking about running, and we will, I think, be very successful."
During the wide-ranging interview, Trump defended his record of addressing the coronavirus pandemic, claiming that "if I weren't president, we wouldn't have a vaccine." He also slammed the Biden administration's response to China, saying, "China will take over this country if they don't do something very quickly." The former president argued that Biden's proposed tax increases on the wealthy and corporations will have a "devastating impact" on the economy and that the situation at the border will "destroy our country."
"Have courage," Trump said. "It's going to happen; we are going to turn it around. I am with you," he said. Polls have consistently shown that Trump is a leading contender for the Republican Party's 2024 nomination. Despite the former president helping to incite a violent mob of his supporters to attack the U.S. Capitol on January 6, GOP voters continue to back him largely.
