Trump: I’m not starting a new party. I’m still running this party
Jazz Shaw Posted at 6:34 pm on February 28, 2021The end of this year’s CPAC was the highlight that most of the attendees were clearly waiting for. The keynote speaker was former President Donald J. Trump, who had been laying low since Joe Biden’s inauguration. If anyone was expecting Trump to be apologetic or talk about “unity†with the Democrats for the next four years, they probably haven’t been paying much attention over the past four years and they are likely very disappointed. Trump was still going full-bore and the crowd was eating it up. There were several highlights from the speech, but one of the earliest came when the Bad Orange Man answered a question that has been widely bandied about in the media. No, he doesn’t plan to start his own third party. He doesn’t need to because he’s still in charge of the GOP. And he might just take back the White House from Joe Biden in four years if only to prove the point. (National Review)
“You know they kept saying, ‘he’s going to start a brand new party.’ We have the Republican Party: it’s going to unite and be stronger than ever before,†Trump said.
“I am not starting a new party. That was fake news,†the former president added. “Wouldn’t that be brilliant? Let’s divide our vote so that we can never win.â€
However, Trump indicated he could run for president in 2024, and again implied that he had not lost the election to Biden.
