Trump vs Biden 2024, both running for a second term?

[space-time]

Do you think he Trump lost this fall, that he would come back and run again in 2024, against Biden, for a second term?

I don't think he'll be able to run a successful campaign from the resort in Brazil where he'll be evading extradition in the luxurious Gerhard Bohne wing.

What makes you think Biden would run for re-election at 83 or whatever he will be in 2024?

If Trump loses, I think that'll be the end of his political career (and none too soon).

He loves the campaigning and rallies and TV coverage and spending other people's money too much. I think he'll immediately launch a 2024 campaign and start raising money and holding rallies.

More likely to see another member of the Dumbf family, Junior or Iwankya…

I think Sarcany is correct about his future legal situation. I sure hope so.

Other than that, it's hard to say. If you didn't know, reports from people on the inside say Trump didn't expect to win the last election and in fact, never even wanted to win. He ran simply to increase his fame and use that for profit. Now that he has been president, I don't know if he would rather have more of it or walk away as the most famous person in the world (which was his original intent).

Trump will turn his post-presidency into a media extravaganza. He'll market the office in ways never imagined. From a nighttime talk show that will put anyone current to shame, to merchandise endorsements - it will all go to the highest bidder. The last thing he will want is to go back to the low paid grind of the campaign trail.

Biden will not seek re-election becoming the first person to chose to serve a single term since Rutherford B. Hayes in 1881. His job will be to return dignity and stability to the office. His role is to set up his vice president for 2024. he knows his limitations and knows that there is a good chance that he will not survive the stress of the first term. When he says he wants someone ready to take over from day one, he is acknowledging his age and what that means.

Mark me down as a "no".

Orange jumpsuit for the orange man. That's my prediction.

Some of our past Presidents have been real bastards and committed what are certainly criminal actions - I'm not sure I want to see us go down the road of imprisoning a former political leader.

Throw the book at the lackeys like Barr and let them suffer the consequences of their actions. Barr won't be the first Attorney General to do jail time.
