    I say no, for one thing he'd be too old, for another he'd carry too much baggage from his past administration. Keeping this one simple, plain yes or no?

    Yes, he should, so that he loses again, by a bigger margin this time (inevitably, it's what is going to happen). That would be entertaining.
    For example, see Bernie Sanders. Lost in 2016 by 3 million votes and in 2020 by 8 million votes.
    Trump will fade. If 80 million people voted to kick him out in 2020 but still 74 million wanted to keep him, in 2024 there will be more people voting against him, and fewer for him.
    The only campaign ad needed: "Do you really want us to go back to THAT???" Case closed.

    As he was the best president since Reagan at least if not further back, I say, I hope so.

    Not if the Republicans want to win in 2024. Trump has lost the independent vote. The Republican Party is still the smaller of the two major parties, it's a must to win independents or lose the election. Independents put Trump into the White House in 2016 going for him 46-42 over Hillary with 12% voting third party against both major party candidates. In 2020 Independents went for Biden 54-41 over Trump. After four years of Trump's childish antics like name calling and throwing temper tantrums, his third grade schoolyard bullying tactics, independents said enough is enough. They just plain tired of him and his very unpresidential behavior. Even after a four year absents in 2024, independents aren't going to return to him.

    One needs to realize even though Independents went for Trump in 2016, 54% didn't. Either opting to vote for Hillary or against Hillary and Trump. So no, not if the republicans want to win. But that will be their choice.

    Against Kamala Harris he'd win for sure.

    Hopefully Trump will be in NY State Prison by then. Along with his adult children. I feel bad for Baron honestly. What kind of an example that would have to set for him to know that your entire family is made of of criminals, and dumb bimbo arm candy.

    He's raked in over 170M by calling the election fraud. Why wouldn't he tell his people he was going to run again in 2024? If they would pay him 170M for calling the election a fraud how much do you think stupid people will send him for his 2024 campaign? Who knows, he might even open up another university or even sell some more steaks!!

    For what? So many leftists keep saying "Oh we'll put Trump in jail" but for what? If you use the justice system to imprison your political opponents after they leave office you are a banana republic.

    Tax fraud in the state of NY for starters. Why should he get a pass for things other people go to jail for?

    If he's done nothing wrong why is there talk of him pardoning himself along with his children and son-in-law?

    Which he hasn't done? Pure supposition?

    Which they haven't been trying to prove for four years without success? The SDNY universally considered one of the most biased and corrupt judicial organisations in political history? You should check out Robert Barnes and Viva Frei's channel;

    Don't underestimate the Democrats' ability to alienate voters.

    I think you meant the most corrupt presidency since the Reagan administration which had investigations, indictments, or convictions of over 138 administration officials, the largest number for any president in American history.
    I think you mean right-wingers.

    If the Democrats do alienate independents, I think that 12% who voted third party against both Trump and Hillary probably would double to 24% if Trump ran again in 2024. That is if they actually went and voted. They, independents, swing voters, whatever owe no loyalty to either party.

    My advice would be for the GOP to come up with a fresh young face for 2024. Trump received 46.1% in 2016 to Hillary's 48.2% with 5.7% voting third party against both major party candidates. In 2020 Trump has so far received 46,9% to Biden 51.3% with a more normal 1.8% voting third party. It seems Trump's support is in the 46% range. Most of those who voted third party in 2016 went to Biden in 2020. If Trump does run again in 2024 along with the democrats alienating the voters, watch for the third party vote to rise above 6% and not go to Trump. My opinion.

    Of course he shouldn't and won't, but that gives him a solid three years of bilking people out of their money on the pretense he is considering it.

    If you're suggesting that trump will not be pardoning any one with the last name trump or Kushner I'd love to know if you'd like to make a wager.

    For what? A certain element amongst the left seem to favour trying to stick the Trump administration in prison and worry what they're guilty off later? This is real third world dictatorship stuff.

    If he’s still married to Melania, I’d say his life wouldn’t be worth living if he tried that stunt again.

    Whilst others insist on screaming “innocent” even when the grift and the graft is open and so obvious blind Freddie could see it

    if Trump ran again, he would lose again, so sounds good to me

    I bet he tries to create his own media platform and it goes bk before 2024

    NY also has his old lawyer as a witness, no telling what he has told them already
