Trump Is Telling His Dinner Pals He’s Planning to Run for President in 2024
Rolling Stone

...

Trump has told at least three people he’s dined with in recent months that he plans to run in 2024, a former senior official at the Republican National Committee tells Rolling Stone. “I have three friends who’ve had dinner with him in the last couple of months. All three reported that his current plans are to run for president in 2024,” the former R.N.C. official says. “Now, whether he does or not is a different issue. We’ve still got three years to go. But he’s telling people that.”

The ex-R.N.C. official says the first two dinners took place in late spring. But the third dinner happened in the last two weeks, the official said. The first two dinner companions came away from their conversations convinced Trump was serious and he’s running, the official adds. The third said he left the dinner “not 100% sure Trump wants to run but he likes being in the conversation, he wants to freeze the field, and he wants his name out there,” according to the ex-R.N.C. official.

The unnamed source strikes again!

1. He is killing off his most fevered followers.

So by 2024, he'll be in a very weak position.

3. All the traitor has to do is go on national TV, tell everyone to get the vaccine and

we might be able to save the human race.

The very idea that the dumbest man alive is in that position might be proof we dont deserve to survive, as a species.

5. At this point, I don't give a crap about his subhuman race of sycophants.

It's unfortunate that their stupidity causes harm beyond their own species, but at least they are decimating their own ranks disproportionately. The human species needs them about as much as we need ticks and mosquitoes.

7. These folks deeply hate us. They hate us because we dont believe white people are superior

and we dont believe heterosexuals are superior.

They hate us because we dare to want clean air and water and healthcare.

Their hate will turn to deadly violence soon.

Listening to a podcast about the making of the movie "Bonfire of the Vanities" and the person who worked directly with the stars as a PA and how wonderful Tom Hanks was and is (liberal) and while Melanie Griffith had a bit of diva in her she had a good heart and was a decent person (liberal) and how Bruce Willis wouldn't even acknowledge her existence until the director, Brian DePalma, introduced her to him (conservative, righty) and then she became a human being worthy of his attention.

Very typical, righty is bad and always has been and always will be.

2. do

Ivanka, donny jr, and gums count as friends now?

Their piggybank is probably as empty as his heart

4. As Thomas Tusser once said: a fool and his money are soon parted

Trump will hold plenty of fundraisers for his upcoming campaign, which will then never happen. He will, however, keep the money, for which the "donors" will mostly be too embarrassed to request a refund. "Frechheit siegt."

6. He wants to bask in the limelight

and scoop up cash from anywhere he can get it.
