PALM BEACH, Fla. – Former President Donald Trump announced that he is running for the 2024 Republican nomination for president, seeking to stage a dramatic return to the White House after having lost his bid for re-election to Joe Biden in 2020.
Trump, a Republican and the leader of the "Make America Great Again" movement, announced his third presidential bid on Tuesday during a speech at his Mar-a-Lago, Florida, home after having teased a bid since leaving office in 2021.
"In order to make America great and glorious again. I am tonight announcing my candidacy for president of the United States," Trump said Tuesday evening to a crowd of supporters.
"But just as I promised in 2016, I am your voice. I am your voice. The Washington establishment wants to silence us, but we will not let them do that. What we have built together over the past six years is the greatest movement in history because it is not about politics. It's about our love for this great country, America, and we're not going to let it fail," said Trump.
"I am running because I believe the world has not yet seen the true glory of what this nation can be. We have not reached that pinnacle, believe it or not," he continued, blaming President Biden for the current state of the nation. "In fact, we can go very far. We're going to have to go far first. We have to get out of this ditch. And once we're out, you'll see things that nobody imagined for any country. It's called the United States of America. And it's an incredible place."

Later that night, on the phone with JOE BIDEN: “I’m all in, put me in coach,” the governor said. “We have your back.”
ANOTHER MESS AT MAR-A-LAGO — The quickest way to DONALD TRUMP’s heart is flattery: Say nice things about him, and you’re in.
Which is perhaps why he was reportedly so smitten with NICK FUENTES — a young white nationalist leader and whose antisemitic and racist views are well-documented and well-known — after dining with him and YE, the performer formerly known as Kanye West, at Mar-a-Lago this week. (Fuentes’ presence was first reported by POLITICO.)
NYT’s Maggie Haberman and Alan Feuer: “During the dinner, according to a person briefed on what took place, Mr. Fuentes described himself as part of Mr. Trump’s base of supporters. Mr. Trump remarked that his advisers urge him to read speeches using a teleprompter and don’t like when he ad-libs remarks.
“Mr. Fuentes said Mr. Trump’s supporters preferred the ad-libs, at which Mr. Trump turned to the others, the person said, and declared that he liked Mr. Fuentes, adding: ‘He gets me.’”
Axios’ Jonathan Swan and Zachary Beau: “A source familiar with the dinner conversation told Axios that Trump ‘seemed very taken’ with Fuentes, impressed that the 24-year-old was able to rattle off statistics and recall speeches dating back to his 2016 campaign. …
“Fuentes told Trump that he represented a side of Trump’s base that was disappointed with his newly cautious approach, especially with what some far-right activists view as a lack of support for those charged in the Jan. 6 Capitol attack.
“Trump didn’t disagree with Fuentes, but said he has advisers who want him to read off teleprompters and be more ‘presidential.’ …
“‘To be honest, I don’t believe the president knew who the hell [Fuentes] was,’ the source added.”
