When do you think Trump announces if he does?

I was thinking it might not be a bad idea to go ahead and announce now to get ahead of an indictment. But something else I would consider if I was in Trump's camp, would be to announce the weekend prior to the mod-terms.

Reason being is the majority of day of voters will be Republican favorable already. So the Dems won't have time create enough negative momentum against him, and they will have already been running their election machine for past couple months.

However this would create a huge momentum push to get as many Republicans to the polls. Which could create a red wave effect, and essentially Trump would be riding on that same wave.

Now all the sudden you have the guy who challenger in the other party, who has just won a wave election in Congress. Biden and Garland could try to still indict him, but at that point it would look even worse than it currently does.

Trump isn't needed to take the midterms. The Republicans will take the house, and stand a pretty good chance of taking the Senate. They can't get a veto proof majority in the Senate though so Trump getting "involved" only has a downside, with no upside.

We already saw what happened in Georgia when he put his personal interests ahead of the candidates. The Republicans lost control of the Senate.

Once he announces he has more regulations involving donations. Best to wait until way after midterms.

Again, this is why I say announcing right before the election it could be effective, but too early the Dems can use it to gain momentum.

The vast majority of day of voters are MAGA type voters. So him announcing right before would just boost those numbers.

It would also allow him to take credit as representing the wave (which I'm sure Trump wouldn't mind doing). This would position him well for a springboard into 24 and make it really awkward for Garland as he tries to persecute him.

Fraud vitiates everything.

If he announces plans to run in 24 like 2020 never happened, then all is lost.

I don’t think anyone is pretending 2020 didn’t happen. But like it or not, Biden is POTUS.

What do you think can happen now to remove Biden within the bounds of the constitution? I’m taking realistically, not fantasy.

And no, there is no military takeover that is going to right the ship.

Smart move would be after the midterms.


On so many levels.

Honestly. I’d buy a Super Bowl spot during commercials in 2023 and announce. It will cost like a beeyatch to do that, but the tears will fall.

He won't announce until next year. The RNC is providing the cost of defending some of the lawsuits against him. That ends when he declares himself a candidate. No rush.

He lost an election to the worst candidate ever, I’m not totally sure he’s even running again.
