In a recent interview with Sharyl Attkisson’s “Full Measure” program, former US President Donald Trump, 78, said that he will not make a fourth consecutive run for the US presidency if he is unsuccessful in the upcoming November 5 election. When asked about the possibility of running again in four years if he loses, Trump responded, “No I don’t. I think that will be — that will be it.I don’t see that at all. Hopefully, we will be successful.”
The race between Trump and Democratic US Vice President Kamala Harris is currently close, with polls indicating a tight competition in crucial swing states that are expected to determine the winner. However, Harris has started to gain ground in national polls.
Trump, who launched his first reelection bid on the day of his inauguration in 2017 and announced his latest White House campaign in November 2022, continues to falsely attribute his 2020 loss to Democratic President Joe Biden to widespread voter fraud.
He is currently facing federal and state criminal charges related to his efforts to overturn the election results, which he denies and characterises as a political attack against him. Trump has also embraced increasingly dystopian rhetoric in the event of a 2024 loss.
Amid his latest campaign, Trump has ventured into various business endeavours, including Trump Media, NFTs, and Trump-branded sneakers, coins, and crypto. Meanwhile, Harris, 59, has framed the election as a critical moment for US democracy while focusing on issues directly impacting families, such as costs and housing.
When asked if the four-year break helped him regroup and identify trustworthy allies, Trump responded, “It would have been easier if I did it … contiguous.”
He added, “But the benefit is more than anything else, it shows how bad they were.” During the interview at his Florida resort, Trump also mentioned that it was “too early” to make deals with people for any position in his White House cabinet should he win the election in November.
