Will Donald Trump run for President in 2024?

[basquebromance]

the only president in history to have lost the popular vote twice, congrats on making history, Donald!

 

[Pogo]

You might recall that "the media" declared both Bushes the winners, declared Reagan the winner, even declared Rump the winner

That's right the Constitution only recognizes Congress and the electoral college. The media does not officially declare the President elect. That can't happen until the election is certified. The certification can't happen when there is litigation pending and recounts and re-canvasing still to occur. That was fun.

Nobody fucking claimed the media officially declares anything. Go learn how to read.

Actually Benjamin Harrison did the same thing.
As did Quincy Adams although there wasn't much of a PV then.

Will Donald Trump run for President in 2024?

I say he will because at the moment, based on current counts, he lost by small margins in three states that could have changed the outcome of the election. Given his force of personality and control of the Republican Party, I think he is going to run for President again in 2024 and try and avenge his defeat.

Sure. Assuming the Manhattan DA or the SDNY hasn't indicted his worthless ass. But sure..anything's possible.

On what charges you little Nazi

 

[Quasar44]

The American people are sick and tired of his racist lying shtick, he can try but he won't get anywhere. It'll be a HUUUGE embarrassment if he does.

Donald Trump has 71,108,784 votes and counting right now. He would have won the election last Tuesday if not for 20,000 votes in Wisconsin, 20,000 votes in Arizona and 10,000 votes in Georgia. He lost those three states by razor thin margins.

If he had been defeated by large decisive margins as I would have hoped, then you could say it would be unlikely for him to run. But unfortunately it appears that did not happen given the current vote counts.

Trump has his opponents, but he also has his supporters. When 71,108,784 people vote for you despite the fact that you got impeached by the U.S. House Of Representatives, that is very impressive.

It was a fake impeachment and fake election

He may if he’s not serving time.

You leftists haven't figured out the dems and their media allies have been lying to you for 4 years. There are no crimes dipshits.

No. He will be 78 and well into his retirement. You will see Nikki Haley in 2024 IMO. Maybe Tom Cotton.

Retirement is a choice, not a necessity, unless ill health comes into play. Joe Biden turns 78 11 days from now and will likely be President for the next 8 years leaving office 2 months after he turns 86.

From jail?

Assuming that he avoids Jail or any significant obstacles from his legal problems, do you think he will run for President in 2024?

People have run from prison before, so that wouldn't be a hindrance.

Whether he'd want to or not hangs heavily on what happens in the interim when he has to answer court charges and debtors. And given the wide gap between how he did and how the rest of the Republican Party did in the same election, I don't think he's quite got "control" of anything. They have no use for him now.

Actually, if the Republicans end up winning the Senate, it will likely be because of Trump. In particular it looks like Trump's potential win in North Carolina may have saved the Republican Senate seat there.

Again, many will say Trump only lost by a combined 49,000 votes in three states, just like Hillary only lost by a combined 77,000 votes in three states in 2016. Trump just had 71,108,000+ Americans vote for him. It does not seem like his popularity has been diminished.

Completely disagree --- if they win the Senate (and/or to whatever degree they hold/held), they do so/did so in spite of Rump. The numbers plainly show that. Clearly voters exhibited a repudiation of Rump and not a repudiation of "Republicans" ---- which title Rump has never qualified for anyway.

As for the Terrible Three, Biden's margin there is already well over 200,000 and climbing. Rump's absolute number increase is the inevitable result of (a) considerably higher turnout. which means more votes for everybody, and (b) dearth of any prominent third parties to siphon votes off as existed in 2016. While Rump's total increased over '16, Biden's increase over Clinton is way bigger. As Colin Jost pointed out, he lost the PV in '16 by three million votes and contrived a story of "three million illegals" coming in and voting against him, which, considering he'll lose this PV by five million, means by his own logic that Rump allowed two million MORE "illegals" in to vote against him than O'bama did.

Rump is pretty much toast. He can run if he wants to, it ain't going anywhere. The various court proceedings between now and then are going to bury him. If he doesn't flee the country altogether.

And his petulant sulking in the present is going to chip away at whatever allure he had as well. He's looking like Richard Nixon circa early 1974 right now.

Biden's margin of victory in Wisconsin, Arizona, and Georgia combined is only 48,025. A flip of those three states would have given Trump 269 electoral votes. The election would have gone to the House Of Representatives, and because of the rules of contingent elections where each state only gets one vote, Donald Trump would have won.

So were talking 3 states and a combined 48,025 votes separating Trump from victory compared to Hillary Clinton's 3 states(Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania) and 78,000 votes separating her from victory in 2016.

As for the popular vote, outside of California in the other 49 states and territories, Trump wins the popular vote at the moment with 66,389,563 votes to BIDEN's 66,269,626 votes.

I agree that if he fails to handle the transition in a professional manner, that will hurt him going forward.

The point I'm making is that Trump essentially repeated his success from 2016, the only difference being winding up on the other side of the fence in three states where the margin of victory was tiny.


What I wanted to see was a massive repudiation of Trump and Trumpism. Huge margins of victory in all battle ground states and Florida, Ohio, Iowa, North Carolina, and TEXAS all going Blue for BIDEN. An increase in the Democrats majority in the House Of Representatives and at least a 51 to 49 control of the U.S. Senate.

Unfortunately, that did not happen. Votes are still coming in, but Trump nearly repeated his victory in 2016 only missing out by a tiny margin in the three states of Arizona, Wisconsin, and Georgia. Just 48,025 votes separate him from four more years in the White House. I wanted a BLUE WAVE and total repudiation of Donald Trump. What happened is not anywhere near that.

I so hope not.

We can't go through him again.

I hope not as well. But despite what you hope for, what do you think will happen? Do you believe Donald Trump will run for President in 2024? Please vote in the poll if you have not already.

It’s more a question if Republicans learned from the mistake they made in 2016.

Does not seem like they did given that only 48,025 votes combined from the three states of Wisconsin, Georgia, and Arizona separate him from the White House.

 

[U2Edge]

I must say I'm surprised in a forum that was so supportive of Trump that so far 80% of you think he will not run for President in 2024.

Doesn't really have anything to do with "support" -- it's just raw analysis.

You seem to be making the leap that because Rump didn't get severely trounced he still "controls" Republicans. Considering that the electorate rejected him, singly, without rejecting Republicans in general, that doesn't follow. Again --- the party has no use for him now. He cost them the Presidency and he's got no position.

Look, you could say the electorate rejected him in 2016, but that did not prevent him from being President the past four years. When you only lose by a tiny margin of 48,025 combined votes from three states, it does not suggest a failure that removes him from being the leader of the party. With the Republican party as it is today, who else but Trump would inspire this level of turnout, enthusiasm, and be able to hold rally's with tens of thousands of people?

I don't see how Trump loses all that from such a tiny margin of defeat.

He hasn't lost the 2020 election yet.

His Wife and son in law have told him that he has lost. Trump signs around the country have come down. Trump can and may fight it for the next four weeks, but if he makes no progress with his claims in a court of law, then he has no option but to accept that he lost the 2020 election. If he refuses to leave the White House on January 20, 2020, the police and secret service will remove him.

All this bullshit about President Trump being sent to prison is just that, bullshit. If there was any criminal dirt on Trump, we would already know about it, it would have been leaked a long time ago.

Further, even if a President was crooked-America doesn't imprison/execute their ex-presidents. Its a tradition, with basis in common sense. Any President who spends 4 years or more in office knows where all the bodies are buried. He knows more dirt about his enemies and its a policy of "Mutual Assured Destruction." The libs aren't clean

"Will Donald Trump run for President in 2024?"

Democrats certainly hope so.

Well, I'm not so sure. This election and the 2016 election have prove too close for comfort. An argument could be made that it would easier to defeat a candidate that is seen as Donald Trump Light.

He already inferred that he is a one term president. It will be Kamala running in 2024 in all likelihood

I agree. He's very popular as his rally's show. He got a lot of votes and I'd say he will run in 2024. Not sure the GOP will support him but if they don't they ain't to smart. He's a winner and always has been.
