Donald Trump is expected to announce a third White House campaign before the end of November as envoys have quietly started to prepare the groundwork for an aggressive field operation, according to people familiar with the matter, thrusting him into the center of attention ahead of Tuesday’s midterms.

The plans for a potential 2024 campaign have started to accelerate in recent weeks, with the former president and his advisers signalling that an announcement is imminent and aiming to capitalize on his position as the clear frontrunner to seize the GOP nomination.

Expecting broad Republican gains in an array of midterm races, Trump has indicated that he wants to launch his latest presidential campaign around the week of 14 November on the back of that momentum, taking credit for Republican wins that were bolstered by his endorsements and those that were not.

The date, earlier reported by Axios, is not final and partly dependent on GOP performance in the midterms. But Trump has been eager to start a 2024 campaign in part because he believes it could shield him from intensifying criminal investigations by the US justice department.

4. The victimhood tears will be overwhelming and constant.

Trump has gone from trying bribe pubic officials to actually seizing public office. Ignore him at your peril.

5. Nah. Not unless he can convince the RNC to keep paying

his legal bills. Based on the size of his recent rallies, that is questionable.

[patricia92243]

11. I just read that about the RNC not paying any announced candidates bills. I

would think he could get more out of his followers than he could from the RNC. I think he will announce.

14. Obama still is, & always will be a rock star!

That north Philly rally in Pennsylvania w/Obama & Biden & Fetterman & Shapiro rocked! Huge crowd! HUGE!

7. Will watch for ticket giveaways

and audience participation opportunities.

8. "according to people familiar with the matter."

in other words, anonymous sources.

Trump stands to lose a pile of money the day he declares he is a candidate. Right now he gets to keep 90 cents for every dollar donated.

Also, the RNC has stated that once he declares it will stop paying his legal fees.

Michael Cohen knows Trump pretty well, he thinks Trump won't run, he isn't an anonymous source.

17. Broad gqp gains? None in the senate, the house gains will be marginal. Governor candidates in

PA and AZ not gonna win. SOS maybe some gains there.

Remember when feeling bad about him announcing, he is the best GOTV tool the Dems have. And, if you think you feel bad…think about the gqp, it’s a nightmare for them..for us..a delicious nightmare. Bring you stupid old fool.
