According to the Mirror on November 16, former US President Donald Trump (Donald Trumpp ) held a press conference at Mar-a-Lago, Florida, and officially announced his candidacy for the 2024 US presidential election .
The 76-year-old said in his speech that he would become a candidate for Republican for president within two years.
"In order to make America great and glorious again. I announced tonight that I will run for the president of the United States," said Trump in front of major media footage and live audiences. His speech stage was marked with the campaign slogan - "Make America Great Again."
"I run because I believe that the world has not seen the true glory of this country," he continued, "we will put the United States first again."
Trump also said: "From now until Election Day 2024, I will make unprecedented efforts to fight and will not let the Democrats destroy our country."
Although some Republicans advised Trump not to run after seeing the results of the midterm elections, the 45th former president ignored criticism and prepared to compete for the throne of the United States for the third time.
This decision by Trump means he has to compete with other Republican campaigners. Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has just emerged from his midterm election reelection victory. But Trump was upset about the success of the Florida governor, and he even said: "I don't think it's good for the party."
Trump's critic Liz Cheney is considered the third most popular candidate. She had said she was considering participating in the presidential campaign for White House , and said that "we will keep Donald Trump away from the presidential office at all costs."
It is worth mentioning that in this press conference, Trump seemed to be competing with the current president Joe Biden (Joe Biden ), and said: "I will make sure that Joe Biden will not receive another four years of office."
"Our country cannot accept this. I said it was not a smile, but a tearful statement. Our country cannot waste four years of time. They (the Democrats) can only get this time." This is not the first time Trump has criticized Biden and his administration in public.
After Trump's press conference, Biden also "strike back" on social media at the first time, saying: "Donald Trump has failed the United States." He also accompanied a video, listing Trump's "crimes" - "manipulating the economy for the rich", "worst employment record since the Great Depression", "attacking health care", "spoiling extremists", "attacking women's rights", "inciting mobs", etc.
Netizens responded to the news that Trump announced his candidacy for the 2024 US presidential election.
"He is like the cheapest fast food restaurant, every time he has this dish, every time he eats this dish, the taste of it will only be worse."
"God bless us all, don't let this fool be re-elected! He is the epitome of narcissistic anti-socialist."
"Trump's only goal for him is himself. I think he has the ability to fight back, and he can replace Biden!"
In 2020, Trump lost to US election with 214 votes to 290. After learning the result, Trump was busy appealing, looking for lawyers, and counting votes again. Two years have passed, and Trump still believes that the election that year was cheating.
"Come back", Trump, at the end of the press conference, specifically emphasized: "This is not just a campaign. This is the pursuit to save our country. I ask you to vote. I ask your support."
