Trump: ‘I can’t imagine’ any Republican would beat me in 2024 primary if I run

preview

by - 03/01/21 4:12 PM ET✕Former President Trump said in an interview released Monday that he believes it is unlikely&nbsp;any Republican would be able to beat him if he ran for president again in 2024.&nbsp;“I can’t imagine it if I decide to do that — I haven’t decided to do that,”&nbsp;Trump on Sunday.“I’ve done a good job for this party,” he said. “We had the greatest economy in history and then we rebuilt it a second time and the foundations were so strong that no other country can even compete with us.”&nbsp;“I think based on the job performance, I’m not sure that anybody should be able to win other than us,” the former president added.&nbsp;Trump on Sunday delivered his first speech since leaving office at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), taking the opportunity to criticize President Biden and critics within the GOP.&nbsp;His remarks come as the Republican Party finds itself divided with many wanting to continue in a pro-Trump direction and others wanting to break away from the grip of the former president.&nbsp;Prior to his speech, Trump won the CPAC straw poll, with&nbsp;55 percent of respondents saying they would vote for him in a hypothetical 2024 GOP primary. Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) trailed at 21 percent support, followed by South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem (R) at 4 percent.&nbsp;In a poll that excluded Trump, DeSantis led, carrying a wide lead of 43 percent support, followed by Noem at 11 percent. Donald Trump Jr.&nbsp;had 8 percent support,&nbsp;while former Secretary of State&nbsp;&nbsp;and Sen.&nbsp;&nbsp;(R-Texas) both came in at 7 percent.&nbsp;✕✕× Close Ad
