- Former President Trump said Saturday, before going on stage at the 2023 CPAC event that he would remain in the 2024 presidential race even if he is indicted in a state or federal investigations he faces.
- “Oh, absolutely, I won’t even think about leaving,” Trump told reporters who asked the question about the possible roadblock of being indicted.
- He also said an indictment: “Probably, it’ll enhance my numbers, but it’s a very bad thing for America. It’s very bad for the country.”
- To be sure, Trump since shortly after entering the 2016 presidential race has campaigned on the idea that Democrats, liberal, the so-called “deep state,” the mainstream media and others out to get him only strengths his support among voters.
