Trump anticipates “a big announcement” on November 15 at Mar-a-Lago

() –– Former President Donald Trump said Monday that he will make “a big announcement” at Mar-a-Lago on Nov. 15.

“I am going to make a big announcement on Tuesday, November 15 at Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, Florida,” said the former president, before emphasizing the importance of voting in the midterm elections on November 8.

had previously reported that Trump was eyeing the week of Nov. 14 to announce his run for president.

Last week, sources familiar with the matter told that top Trump aides were touting the third week of November as an ideal time to launch his 2024 presidential campaign, provided Republicans do well in the midterms. .

Two sources noted that the Trump team has specifically discussed Nov. 14 as a possible announcement date, which would be in the midst of a long-scheduled overseas trip to Asia by President Joe Biden. Trump was also unlikely to make the announcement before Monday, even if the GOP exceeds expectations on election night, to avoid overshadowing his daughter Tiffany’s Nov. 12 wedding at Mar-a-Lago and because he doesn’t want to share a news cycle with the results of the midterm elections, the sources said.

These sources also warned that no date has been set and that Trump could push it back if control of the Senate remains undecided after Election Day or if Republicans make less-than-overwhelming gains in their House races.
