A former insider from the Trump White House has come out to reveal Donald Trump’s plans for the future. During a preview interview about his upcoming book, former White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer stated that Trump is planning to run again in 2024.

In an interview promoting his new book Radical Nation: Joe Biden and Kamala Harris’s Dangerous Plan for America, Spicer said: “He’s in.”
While Trump is looking beyond 2022, according to Spicer, he will be playing the role of “kingmaker” in the midterm elections next November, helping put forward candidates that will win the approval of the GOP voter base, who overwhelmingly support Trump.
Speaking with the Washington Examiner, Spicer said that the former president “has banked $102 million, lost weight, and has kept his approval ratings high.”
“Spicer said that the last few months of bumbles by the Biden White House, especially on Trump issues such as immigration, have encouraged the former president to look beyond the 2022 midterm elections during which he plans to be a ‘kingmaker,’” the Examiner reported.
This isn’t the first time a Trump insider hinted about 2024.
GOP Newsfeed previously reported that Mark Meadows, Trump’s former chief of staff, was taking part in “cabinet meetings” with Donald Trump and several others at the Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster, New Jersey.
“I’m not authorized to speak on behalf of the president, but I can tell you this: We wouldn’t be meeting tonight if we weren’t making plans to move forward in a real way, with President Trump at the head of that ticket,” he added.
Hints from Trump
Donald Trump previously hinted at running again in 2024 during an interview with Fox News host Sean Hannity.
“You are not going to answer, but I have to ask, where are you in the process,” Hannity said to the former president regarding running in 2024. “Let me ask you this, without giving the answer, what the answer is, have you made up your mind?”
“Yes,” Trump responded.
Though he didn’t give a definitive answer, likely for strategic reasons, Trump did reveal more later in the interview.
“If you move forward, you know how difficult it is, but you seem ready to reengage in that battle,” Hannity said.
“It’s not that I want to,” Trump replied. “The country needs it. We have to take care of this country. I don’t want to. Is this fun? Fighting constantly? Fighting always? I mean, the country, what we have done, is so important.”
