Former President Trump said recently that his supporters will be “very happy” when he ultimately announces whether he will launch a presidential bid in 2024.

“The answer is I’m absolutely enthused. I look forward to doing an announcement at the right time,” Trump said in an interview with Candace Owens on her Daily Wire talk show, Candace.

“As you know, it’s very early. But I think people are going to be very, very happy when I make a certain announcement,” the former president said in the interview, which will air Tuesday evening.

“You know for campaign-finance reasons, you really can’t do it too early because it becomes a whole different thing,” he added.

Launching a presidential campaign would leave Trump subject to financial-disclosure forms and election laws that prescribe how he can raise and spend money.

“Otherwise I think I’d give you an answer that you’d be very happy with. So we’re looking at that very, very seriously,” he said. “All I’d say is: stay tuned.”

Owens also jokingly asked Trump if she could join him as his running mate if he decides to run for president.

“What a good choice that would be. That would be fantastic. You would be fantastic,” Trump said.

In a poll by Echelon Insights in March, 60 percent of Republican respondents said they would “definitely” or “probably” back the former president in a GOP primary if it were held today.

Trump is one of a growing pool of potential 2024 GOP candidates, which includes former U.S. ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley, former secretary of state Mike Pompeo, Florida governor Ron DeSantis, South Dakota governor Kristi Noem, and senators Marco Rubio (Fla.), Rick Scott (Fla.) and Tom Cotton (Ark.).

However, Haley has indicated that she will not run if Trump joins the race. It remains to be seen if that will be the case with other potential candidates.

Meanwhile, CNN reported late last month that Trump is exploring plans to once again hold Make America Great Again rallies as soon as this month.

  1. WHEN he gets back n office, the 1st day he should declare antifa and blm to be domestic terrorists and then start trying to undo all the damage that the lying leftists, liberals, demonrats and socialists will continue doing to this country until we get rid of ALL of them. TRUMP 2024. You are either for him or against the country

  2. If Trump runs again, he will get my vote, no matter who his running mate is. But every time I hear Candace Owens talk, I am more and more impressed with her. She is one smart young woman!
    There may be others more qualified than her. I have no idea. But I would certainly be comfortable with her as VP. One thing I am sure of – Trump’s choice will be a good one.

    1. Tom, I am completely with you on Trump. Trump did more good for America in his first week in office that Faux Joe will do in his entire time. The few times I have seen Ms Owens I have the very same feeling. She certainly would make a better VP than Pence turned out to be. My granddaughter just started college and she told me that the Young Republican group is having a huge influx of new members. That brings joy to me because the MSM seems to like to talk about this not being the case. My granddaughter said she never though much about politics but when she started working to earn some of her own money she clearly leaned toward Conservatism, I am so proud of her for making up her own mind as to what type of government she wants.

  3. 60 percent of Republican respondents said they would “definitely” or “probably” back the former president, while 100% of dead people and illegals and criminals say they would vote, twice, for any Neo-fascist hater of the United States.

  4. I can’t wait for President Trump to be back at the White House. I like Candace very much, she has always impressed me. Whether it’s her or DeSantis whom Trump will choose for his running mate, they surely have my undivided support.
