Donald Trump admits he misses being president and hints at 2024 White House run

Donald Trump teased a potential a second run for office and admitted he misses being president as he broke his silence in a blitz of right-wing cable news interviews on Wednesday night.

The former US president continued to repeat false claims that he was the rightful winner of the 2020 election, telling Fox News: "I think we won substantially".

Mr Trump emerged from his public hiatus to comment on the passing of the veteran conservative commentator Rush Limbaugh, whom he called a "legend" of American radio.

The interviews were the first Mr Trump has given since leaving the White House.

He misses getting his enormous ass kissed.

What he misses most is getting his ego stroked on the taxpayer dime. All those rallies of people chanting his name, hanging on his every word, etc.

He didn't give a damn about doing the actual job and he had no clue about the concept of service to his nation. He just loved the idea of being "the most powerful man in the world" and all the perks that went with it.

Fuck him! He is such a selfish, disgusting POS! He should never be allowed to run for anything again. The man is satan incarnate. The day he dies will be one of the happiest days of my life.

You don't think they'd assemble a Jury with 6 Trump voters? And get change of venues from NYC and Atlanta into Burning Cross County.

Lock him up.

Like, probably tax frauds, bank frauds, insurance frauds, meaning different numbers for the same assets.

Six Drumph voters could not aquit on such evident felonies. It would be much too obvious.

Let's take fraud charges related to obtaining loans and lying about property valuation.

Do you think Trump took the loan docs, spread them on his desk and signed all the dotted lines and attached supporting docs with paperclips and dropped it in the mail?

I can assure you... with 100% certainty...

There are multiple layers of responsibility between Trump and the person who actually filled out, assembled and submitted the loan applications.

I've been watching rich people get away with stuff for a half century.

They rarely pay a price and even MORE rarely are sent to prison.

Lock him up.

That's not the only cases pending either.

A Judge in NY is waiting for a DNA sample to be provided and it could match the stink left on E.J. Carroll's dress during the alleged rape.

Tons of other possibilities too. Hundreds of thousands preventable COVID-19 deaths: Lying about it while knowing (on tape) how deadly it was.

The DNA issue you speak of is part of a Civil Suit regarding defamation. Carroll has never proved possession of such DNA sample.

COVID-19, not a chance. The US is like... 10th worst in the world re: deaths/pop... do you suggest prosecutions of the leaders of several European countries? European countries are over 750k deaths, ya know.

Let's stop living in fear of Trump... afraid that he's gonna win it all again.

There's no magic fairy or 4 leaf clover that's going to stop Trump.

GOOD GOVERNANCE will stop Trump.

PROGRESSIVE GOVERNMENT will stop Trump and his ilk FOREVER.

We control all levers of power in DC, SHOW the people what a fair and just administration can do. Wealth equity is the way. Institute a one-time 5% Wealth Tax on all net worth over 750k. Add on a 1% annual Wealth Tax and tax Capital Gains as regular income and a Wall Street "per transaction" tax.

Medicare opt-in options and a REAL Social Security safety net better than today's minimum $600/mo payment.

This IS the time...

If we FAIL at all those things and this 4 years looks just like any other 4 years... then maybe we DESERVE Trump v2.0



Lock him up.

If Drumph the mob boss with his universe of crimes his entire life is allowed to go scot free for all the crimes he committed, then there is no hope of ever having equal Justice for all in the good US of A.

The word Justice will be equivalent to the word Farce for the whole world to see.

He didn't like the JOB of president, he liked BEING president.

It wasn't the overall task of holding the office he liked, he just adored having everyone kiss his ass, being able to fly anywhere on a whim, etc.

I have looked but can't find any site that gives an accurate count, but I would bet he flew on Marine One from the South Lawn more times in 4 years than Obama and Bush combined did in 16. If not, it's got to be close.

Why does the Marine Corps and the Air Force need to replace the helicopters and the 747's?

Because fucking Trumpy used them so much they are worn out!
