Donald Trump says he doesn't see himself running in 2028 if he loses in November
9/22/2024
Why it matters: Trump has been a central figure in the Republican Party for the last three election cycles.
The news: When asked on Full Measure with Sharyl Attkisson whether he would consider another run in four years if unsuccessful in 2024, Trump responded, "No, I don't. I think … that will be it. I don't see that at all." He added, "Hopefully, we're gonna be successful."
What he said: Reflecting on his 2024 campaign, Trump remarked, "It would have been easier if I did it ... contiguous," referring to launching his bid after losing the 2020 election to President Biden.
Big picture: When asked about potential roles for Elon Musk, Tulsi Gabbard, and Robert F. Kennedy Jr. in a second Trump administration, he said RFK Jr. "would do great on health and the environment." He described Gabbard as a "common sense person."
Regarding Musk, Trump commented, "Elon is Elon," noting the tech mogul "probably has a couple of other things to do," while praising him as a "big cost cutter." Trump acknowledged that they "disagree a little bit" on electric vehicles but added, "He agrees with me that not every car should be electric."
While Trump didn’t commit to appointing any of them to his administration, he mentioned that the time to consider appointments is approaching.
Elon Musk has said: In November next year, we fire all politicians who betrayed the American people
