Trump Announces 2024 Run With a Speech Full of Falsehoods and Conspiracy Theories 269 Donald Trump Mike Pence Tina Daunt Tue, November 15, 2022 at 9:38 PM·4 min read In this article: Donald Trump 45th President of the United States Mike Pence 48th Vice President of the United States Donald Trump launched his 2024 White House bid on Tuesday with a speech filled with the kind of misrepresentations that typify his public statements, this time regarding his own presidency and that of his successor, Joe Biden. The announcement came after his movement suffered embarrassing defeats in the 2022 midterms with nearly all of his endorsed candidates going down in defeat. They also come as he continues to tell blatant lies about the 2020 election. Appearing at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Palm Beach, Fla., the twice-impeached ex-President currently being investigated for his role stoking the Jan. 6 capitol attack pitched the campaign as “America’s comeback.” Ironic words considering how badly the election deniers he endorsed did a week ago. He also said he’ll ‘make America great and glorious again,” while advancing false claims that his presidency produced “the greatest economic growth ever.” He also said the current president, Joe Biden, has ‘failed’ the country and that he’s working with “radical left lunatics” to force “the decline of America.” This is in addition to advocating for cruel and unusual punishment, winking at racism, and outright being transphobic. - ADVERTISEMENT - Trump also said kind words about China’s autocratic leader, Xi, lied, literally, about Democrats, and issued veiled threats of violence using language clearly intended to invoke the QAnon conspiracy theory. And we mean, clearly, stopping just shy of QAnon rhetoric that openly calls for the death of political enemies. In other words, he gave a typical Trump speech. Biden was apparently prepared for it in advance; soon after Trump’s speech ended, his official account tweeted “Donald Trump failed America,” along with a clip detailing just what those failures were. The announcement comes despite efforts by some of his supporters behind the scenes to convince him to put it off for fear he’ll negatively affect Georgia Republican Herschel Walker’s chances against Democrat Raphael Warnock in the upcoming senate runoff.
