Trump talks Trump 2024 with aides




Seth Abramson
@SethAbramson
It's been 23 hours since I wrote the below tweet. I wrote it from my expertise as a Trump biographer who has published three books on the man in the last 24 months.

CNN (@Acosta) just confirmed that Donald Trump is indeed now discussing with his aides a *2024 presidential run*.

The main reason being we can't have this type of authoritarian fascism rear it's ugly head again in this country. You do that by nipping it in the bud and holding those responsible accountable.

But also to clear the public record and give society a sense of justice.

I want no argument that republicans were corrupt and enabled corruption. I want to be able talk about Democratic administrations punishing corruption in government.

Or shorter, I agree.

delighted because I thought he couldn't win and was the best person for Hillary to run against. Obviously I was wrong.

With all the votes he got, increasing by 6 million so far, I don't trust half the voters anymore. Any risk he could pull it off is too much to gamble.

This is just a way for him to continue the grift and feed his narcissistic ego so that he can cope with the loss.

His rage will be expressed in the next three months, and for the good of the country I really hope that his aides and cabinet secretaries choose to ignore his more outlandish orders.

Actually give Mitch more reason to cooperate with Biden because a successful Biden would be the best defense against Trump.

Honestly, a situation where Biden were President and Mitch had control of Senate would probably be McConnells preferred outcome over having to deal with Trump. They don't really seem to get along.

Remember, he’s already said he deserves a third term because the “fake Russia hoax investigation” took up so much of his first term. And I’m pretty sure he’s delusional enough to think that, if he simply ignores the Constitution and forges ahead, no one will stand in his way.

has been McConnell. Strip away tRump's title and he's as good as toast. He probably will survive a few rounds, thinking his lawyers can save him, but I'm betting he's weak. Best to keep ropes and sharp objects away from him as things unravel.
