45th President Donald Trump has officially declared his candidacy for the White House in 2024 in a rousing speech before supporters on the night of November 15.
Trump opened his speech, “My fellow citizens, America’s comeback starts right now” in a clip that’s already going viral across social media.

Trump and his staff live streamed the event via his official channel on Rumble, the free speech alternative to YouTube.
The 45th President, who aims to also become the 47th President, has released several clips via his new MAGA War Room Twitter account.

Immediately after his speech, Trump’s social media accounts posted a new advertisement promoting his vision to “Make America Glorious Again” and inviting supporters to become involved.
The former president, twice impeached by the House when it was held by the Democratic Party then acquitted by the Senate, previously announced he would make a “special announcement” on November 15, one week after the midterm elections.
Trump’s official announcement follows almost two years of repeated hints and promises that his final decision regarding 2024 would make his supporters “very happy.”
Now, as Trump remains dogged by accusations that he somehow inspired or led an “insurrection” in January of 2021, and as he faces a potential Republican challenger in Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, the 76-year-old is poised to begin a lengthy battle in the Republican primaries next year.
Following his departure from office in 2021, the Republican Party clarified that it would welcome Trump to make another run for office, but would not cancel its primaries and caucuses to instead name Trump as the nominee.
This is a breaking news story and may be updated with additional information as it becomes available.

It was an excellent speech. If he can remain on track, hopefully he can win back the people he lost as a result of his earlier narcistic, childish remarks.

Agreeโฆ.. I hope he has the fortitude to restrain from the junior high name calling. It may have worked for him during the primaries leading up to 2016, but he needs the votes outside the party to win the presidency.
People will respond positively if he keeps it respectable and can sail to election.

GIVE ME A F’ING BREAK! I’m so SICK & TIRE of reading & listening to those whining about Trump’s name calling! You all need to go back to burying your A$$ in the sand or should I say, up your A$$! What would you rather our country totally collapsing because you don’t want to vote for an individual who pushes back when slandered & called a name!? I suppose those of you who want to call him a child for pushing back, is in favor of those who CONSTANTLY, 24/7 CALL US NAMES! Have fun being STUPID!
PS: It’s not to say that I support him doing this, but I will be damn if I will support those who do a lot worse than just “name calling”! That’s my honest to GOD 2 cents!

I , if I may , suggest that the death penalty start with Ma’am Pelosi , Lori Lightfoot [sorry , but she should be hung for being so ugly] , Gretchen Whitmyre and her draconian mandates , COUMO for locking down NYC , Mayors of Seattle , San Francisco , Chicago , NYC , why every democrat mayor and judges. Get rid of EVERY SINGLE Obama/Biden/Clinton appointees . “blm/antifa” should be listed as criminals and terrorists and shot on sight . Then the prisons. ALL Lifers/serial killers/gang members/traitors/terrorists etc. Overturn EVERY LAW which grants special privileges to homosexuals/lesbians/cis/trans what ever. BUILD THE SOUTHERN WALL.

TDS ALERT!
Trump Derangement Syndrome is well and alive on both sides of the imaginary aisle, otherwise known as dialectics. One side provides the thesis, the other antithesis, resulting in a controlled synthesis. Those who ultimately control such a paradigm are thus able to, without detection, accomplish their wicked designs.
Case in point: TDS on both sides of the aisle, which only accomplishes to keep both sides focused on themselves and their opponents, which, in turn keeps both sides from ever focusing on the real solution for America’s woes – that is, a return to Yahweh, God of the Bible, as America’s Sovereign and thus His triune and integral moral law as supreme.
Trump will never make America great again. Only God is able to do that and He will only do so for the same reason He did so previously. America was once great but not for the reason most people believe it was. In fact, quite the opposite – a classic case of Isaiah 5:20, calling evil good and good evil.
Yahweh blesses nations (makes them great and prosperous) when they look to Him as their sovereign and thus His moral law as the standard for government and society, per Deuteronomy 4:4-8, 28:1-14, Proverbs 14:34, etc.
Consequently, America’s greatness was the result of the 17th-century Christian Colonial governments of, by, and for God established upon His unchanging moral law: Alexis de Tocqueville, Democracy in America, 1835:
“They [the 17th-century Puritans] exercised the rights of sovereignty; they named their magistrates, concluded peace or declared war, made police regulations, and enacted laws as if their allegiance was due only to God. Nothing can be more curious and, at the same time more instructive, than the legislation of that period; it is there that the solution of the great social problem which the United States now presents to the world is to be found [in perfect fulfillment of Deuteronomy 4:5-8, demonstrating the continuing veracity of Yahweh’s law and its accompanying blessings, per Deuteronomy 28:1-14].
“Amongst these documents we shall notice, as especially characteristic, the code of laws promulgated by the little State of Connecticut in 1650. The legislators of Connecticut begin with the penal laws, and โฆ they borrow their provisions from the text of Holy Writ … copied verbatim from the books of Exodus, Leviticus, and Deuteronomy.โฆ” (Alexis de Tocqueville, Democracy in America, 2 vols. (New York: NY: The Colonial Press, 1899) vol. 1, pp. 36-37)
On the other hand, Yahweh curses nations who reject His sovereignty and replace His law with their own man-made surrogates. Thus, America began to be cursed (by God’s long suffering only incrementally at first) when the 18th-century founders replaced the 17th-century Colonial governments with their own humanistic government of, by, and for the people based upon capricious Enlightenment traditions.
Without repentance for these sins of sedition and our complicity therein, it was inevitable that America would find herself teetering on the precipice of moral depravity and destruction.
