Trump Says He’s Already Made His Decision on 2024

July 14, 2022 · 11:25 am ET · Leave a Comment

When asked by Olivia Nuzzi if he’ll run for president in 2024, Donald Trump “wouldn’t disclose what he’d decided. Not at first. But then he couldn’t help himself.”

Said Trump: “I’ve already made that decision… I would say my big decision will be whether I go before or after. You understand what that means? Midterms. Do I go before or after? That will be my big decision.”

He was thinking aloud now: “I just think that there are certain assets to before. Let people know. I think a lot of people would not even run if I did that because, if you look at the polls, they don’t even register. Most of these people. And I think that you would actually have a backlash against them if they ran. People want me to run.”

He also swore that shielding himself from prosecution is not among his reasons for running for president: “Well, I did nothing wrong, so I don’t see that. I did absolutely nothing wrong. I had a perfect phone call in Georgia, so I’m not concerned with it.”
