Report: Trump Privately Discussing 2024 Run

Videos by OutKick

The networks have called the election for Joe Biden with 290 electoral votes. President Donald Trump has not conceded and says he will fight the results, though Axios reports that Trump has already told advisers he’s thinking about running for president again in 2024.

If Trump were to run again, he’d come in with a built-in advantage over other likely GOP candidates. Trump has a large, loyal fan base, which is even more passionate since the results of the election. Trump’s supporters are anti-establishment, many of whom will never trust the election count.

Then there is COVID-19.

If it weren’t for COVID, Trump would have beaten Joe Biden, running on the economy alone. Furthermore, if the Pfizer vaccine (which announced positive signs Monday) and others are successful and Trump focuses his final months on improving coronavirus conditions, he could campaign as “the president who defeated COVID.”

By contrast, if Americans find that Biden handles COVID more effectively, Trump’s 2024 chances take a hit.

Missouri Senator Josh Hawley, Former US Ambassador to the United Nation Nikki Haley, Florida Senator Marco Rubio, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, and Texas Senator Ted Cruz are other candidates who project to have support in the 2024 Republican primary.

Wild cards speculated include Don Jr., Ivanka Trump, and Fox News’ Tucker Carlson.

Reports have also emerged that Trump is considering launching a news network to compete with Rupert Murdoch and Fox News, which is a fascinating media story.

Run for president or start a news network? Not bad options to have.

    • The evil deep state has been planning this voter fraud overthrow for 4 years. They are trying to install their dummy puppet mumbling bumbling creepy senile criminal pervert racist bribe taking crazy Joe Biden so they can continue their destruction of America. Hopefully Trump can put another nail in their coffin by exposing the massive voter fraud, but it will be very hard.

  1. Trump made a map for the GOP on how to fight the progressive’s. I think someone like Nikki Haley can take that map and bring in more voters by simply toning down the rhetoric. The press will still lose its mind w/o out providing them the ammo.

  2. Hey Bobby…Donald Trump BEAT Joe Biden. Not trying to be a jerk…especially would never to you…but facts is facts. China Joe believes in TROOF OVER FACTS…but his TROOF is dog shit…Kirk out !!!

  3. Yeah Trump won and the voter fraud narrative is starting to gain steam. Pennsylvania in Real Clear Politics went back to toss up as well as Arizona. Add Nevada, Georgia, Michigan, and possibly Wisconsin in the mix…I doubt Trump is even concerned about 2024 right now.

  4. Garbage story. Typical “anonymous sources” – you know the same “sources” who claimed Trump called soldiers “losers”, 3rd world countries “shitholes”, and have come forth every other week the past 4 years with some outlandish, unsubstantiated claim that proves to be baseless.

    This “story” is meant to add fuel to the fake news fire that the election is over. It is anything but over.

    Do better, Outkick. You shanked this one.

  5. Typical of todays journalism graduates. People close to the situation insiders anonymous sources, off the record, and the big sources say who are not able to speak on the record. Kind of like long arms can dish the rock spread the floor, jump out of the gym, freaky athletic body, good long range shooter from 3, streaky shooter.
