Kellyanne Conway on Trump 2024: ‘I Think You Can Expect Him to Announce Soon’

Reporter Thanks for the ░░░░░░░░ Two things Firstly when ░░░░░░░░ Trump announce his 2024 ░░░░░░░░ bid I ll start ░░░░░░░░ that CONWAY Is there ░░░░░░░░ follow up Laughter Reporter ░░░░░░░░ there will be a ░░░░░░░░ question but I thought ░░░░░░░░ d just start with ░░░░░░░░ CONWAY Well he d ░░░░░░░░ to have done it ░░░░░░░░ And I give him ░░░░░░░░ for many things this ░░░░░░░░ because he s going ░░░░░░░░ end up being a ░░░░░░░░ winner from this election ░░░░░░░░ Try as everybody did ░░░░░░░░ say You nominated the ░░░░░░░░ people you didn t ░░░░░░░░ enough money you re ░░░░░░░░ the way go away ░░░░░░░░ know Donald Trump in ░░░░░░░░ ways never stopped campaigning ░░░░░░░░ early 2015 first for ░░░░░░░░ and in between for ░░░░░░░░ many different candidates I ░░░░░░░░ I m like Joe ░░░░░░░░ Trump was highly in ░░░░░░░░ in 2018 and did ░░░░░░░░ he could to show ░░░░░░░░ for many of these ░░░░░░░░ could only go for ░░░░░░░░ couple of the House ░░░░░░░░ but went around for ░░░░░░░░ lot of the Senate ░░░░░░░░ and we picked up ░░░░░░░░ in the Senate after ░░░░░░░░ Kavanaugh hearings again something ░░░░░░░░ misread respectfully We picked ░░░░░░░░ seats in the United ░░░░░░░░ Senate in 2018 inaudible ░░░░░░░░ I think 40 seats ░░░░░░░░ so in the House ░░░░░░░░ he never stopped campaigning ░░░░░░░░ into his post presidency ░░░░░░░░ And I would say ░░░░░░░░ s hard for me ░░░░░░░░ see that Joe Biden ░░░░░░░░ started really campaigning Did ░░░░░░░░ ever start campaigning for ░░░░░░░░ in 2019 2020 after ░░░░░░░░ And he certainly isn ░░░░░░░░ welcome in most places ░░░░░░░░ spaces now So in ░░░░░░░░ ways don t miss ░░░░░░░░ and how Trump is ░░░░░░░░ for president again if ░░░░░░░░ would like because he ░░░░░░░░ never stopped being part ░░░░░░░░ this So he would ░░░░░░░░ liked I give him ░░░░░░░░ for staying in the ░░░░░░░░ this cycle with very ░░░░░░░░ exceptions and I can ░░░░░░░░ even think of any ░░░░░░░░ this second I could ░░░░░░░░ of the individual candidates ░░░░░░░░ Matt Dolan in Ohio ░░░░░░░░ lost but I can ░░░░░░░░ think of individual Republicans ░░░░░░░░ the ballot who are ░░░░░░░░ running mostly if not ░░░░░░░░ completely on the America ░░░░░░░░ agenda that Trump Pence ░░░░░░░░ So his legacy continued ░░░░░░░░ that s one I ░░░░░░░░ him a ton of ░░░░░░░░ for not announcing this ░░░░░░░░ for not stepping in ░░░░░░░░ way of the midterm ░░░░░░░░ which a lot of ░░░░░░░░ around him who frankly ░░░░░░░░ him for their next ░░░░░░░░ and their next gig ░░░░░░░░ their next center of ░░░░░░░░ were urging him and ░░░░░░░░ him and leaking to ░░░░░░░░ lot of you that ░░░░░░░░ would be he would ░░░░░░░░ announcing any moment I ░░░░░░░░ glad that he didn ░░░░░░░░ do that That was ░░░░░░░░ my advice from the ░░░░░░░░ you know wait until ░░░░░░░░ the midterms if you ░░░░░░░░ at all Secondly I ░░░░░░░░ the fact that he ░░░░░░░░ back to Washington at ░░░░░░░░ end of July full ░░░░░░░░ and a half since ░░░░░░░░ on January 2021 and ░░░░░░░░ a policy speech It ░░░░░░░░ President Trump an hour ░░░░░░░░ a minute roughly to ░░░░░░░░ to the 2020 election ░░░░░░░░ that policy speech at ░░░░░░░░ which you all covered ░░░░░░░░ then he went on ░░░░░░░░ CPAC and gave mostly ░░░░░░░░ policy speech So when ░░░░░░░░ does that when people ░░░░░░░░ the binary choice and ░░░░░░░░ re reminded of why ░░░░░░░░ words You miss me ░░░░░░░░ t you I will ░░░░░░░░ you know what I ░░░░░░░░ going to push aside ░░░░░░░░ I don t like ░░░░░░░░ I m going to ░░░░░░░░ my pocketbook my personal ░░░░░░░░ my fear of crime ░░░░░░░░ frustration with no baby ░░░░░░░░ on the shelves rising ░░░░░░░░ of gas and groceries ░░░░░░░░ is a six month ░░░░░░░░ conversation That conversation now ░░░░░░░░ utilities insurance rent mortgage ░░░░░░░░ student loan payment So ░░░░░░░░ think you can expect ░░░░░░░░ to announce soon Obviously ░░░░░░░░ s a family wedding ░░░░░░░░ up on his property ░░░░░░░░ Election Day is late ░░░░░░░░ year But as he ░░░░░░░░ say wait and see ░░░░░░░░ then he s got ░░░░░░░░ lot to think about ░░░░░░░░ though because the super ░░░░░░░░ obviously can t be ░░░░░░░░ into a presidential source ░░░░░░░░ funding I ask him ░░░░░░░░ the time I asked ░░░░░░░░ this summer What happens ░░░░░░░░ your fund and your ░░░░░░░░ He said What do ░░░░░░░░ mean And the funding ░░░░░░░░ he was very conversant ░░░░░░░░ what he can and ░░░░░░░░ do He d obviously ░░░░░░░░ deeply briefed on that ░░░░░░░░ he knows he knows ░░░░░░░░ already And then I ░░░░░░░░ about his fund because ░░░░░░░░ care about him the ░░░░░░░░ He s got a ░░░░░░░░ life He s got ░░░░░░░░ great post presidency life ░░░░░░░░ re making money again ░░░░░░░░ s involved in the ░░░░░░░░ s somebody unlike President ░░░░░░░░ W Bush or President ░░░░░░░░ Clinton President Barack Obama ░░░░░░░░ left the presidency after ░░░░░░░░ terms as young men ░░░░░░░░ that was it I ░░░░░░░░ one of the worst ░░░░░░░░ could ever happen to ░░░░░░░░ gentlemen is a cabinet ░░░░░░░░ former cabinet secretary former ░░░░░░░░ staff were saying Oh ░░░░░░░░ President hello I m ░░░░░░░░ for office Will you ░░░░░░░░ me They re like ░░░░░░░░ jeez You know I ░░░░░░░░ left all that behind ░░░░░░░░ Trump is just getting ░░░░░░░░ so he loves this ░░░░░░░░ and wants to continue ░░░░░░░░ I think you should ░░░░░░░░ keep your cellphone on ░░░░░░░░ sorry if you made ░░░░░░░░ post election plans as ░░░░░░░░ races are never all ░░░░░░░░ in time there s ░░░░░░░░ a runoff in Louisiana ░░░░░░░░ Georgia it seems these ░░░░░░░░ somehow But he would ░░░░░░░░ to have announced by ░░░░░░░░ And I think the ░░░░░░░░ that he hasn t ░░░░░░░░ really a big credit ░░░░░░░░ him and his restraint ░░░░░░░░ him wanting to help ░░░░░░░░ these midterms and not ░░░░░░░░ on them He s ░░░░░░░░ urged by some people ░░░░░░░░ still have a surprise ░░░░░░░░ November surprise But we ░░░░░░░░ trying to mitigate November ░░░░░░░░ for all the candidates ░░░░░░░░ inaudible Last point If ░░░░░░░░ when Donald Trump announces ░░░░░░░░ presidential run it doesn ░░░░░░░░ scramble the Republican field ░░░░░░░░ scrambles the Democratic field ░░░░░░░░ think that s when ░░░░░░░░ George Wills of the ░░░░░░░░ really kick into high ░░░░░░░░ and say What are ░░░░░░░░ doing here We re ░░░░░░░░ to have a cage ░░░░░░░░ rematch with these two ░░░░░░░░ I know Ron Klain ░░░░░░░░ not a leader and ░░░░░░░░ like to say Well ░░░░░░░░ re ready for Trump ░░░░░░░░ want to run against ░░░░░░░░ again Do they really ░░░░░░░░ you ve seen the ░░░░░░░░ Even if not just ░░░░░░░░ rematch polls the complete ░░░░░░░░ indisputable lack of popularity ░░░░░░░░ lack of approval of ░░░░░░░░ sitting president and frankly ░░░░░░░░ pieces of his agenda ░░░░░░░░ they ve not been ░░░░░░░░ to sell in a ░░░░░░░░ that makes people have ░░░░░░░░ in their competence That ░░░░░░░░ just very clear So ░░░░░░░░ they really want to ░░░░░░░░ that I think the ░░░░░░░░ then have a hard ░░░░░░░░ than they would have ░░░░░░░░ to have I always ░░░░░░░░ advice to Democrats They ░░░░░░░░ have liked to have ░░░░░░░░ able to say Hey ░░░░░░░░ know what Joe Biden ░░░░░░░░ aside You finally got ░░░░░░░░ brass ring You helped ░░░░░░░░ rid of Donald Trump ░░░░░░░░ you very much You ░░░░░░░░ been running for president ░░░░░░░░ decades You did it ░░░░░░░░ go down as history ░░░░░░░░ did it But please ░░░░░░░░ aside and take credit ░░░░░░░░ one more historic thing ░░░░░░░░ could just elevate and ░░░░░░░░ elect your female vice ░░░░░░░░ No one can say ░░░░░░░░ 18 senior staffers have ░░░░░░░░ her If they don ░░░░░░░░ want to work for ░░░░░░░░ if they don t ░░░░░░░░ her to be vice ░░░░░░░░ or president what about ░░░░░░░░ rest of us They ░░░░░░░░ simply cannot say to ░░░░░░░░ Your vice president your ░░░░░░░░ picked vice president is ░░░░░░░░ in the wings and ░░░░░░░░ s ready to do ░░░░░░░░ job She won t ░░░░░░░░ it They don t ░░░░░░░░ her either So I ░░░░░░░░ it scrambles the Democratic ░░░░░░░░ almost immediately.”
