Here’s What Trump Said When Asked if He’s Running for President; Trump Is Being Sued as a Private Citizen for His Alleged Role in the Capitol Riots

By Townhall. On Wednesday, former President Donald Trump gave his first interviews since leaving the White House. While the former president discussed the remarkable life of radio legend and conservative icon Rush Limbaugh, Trump also fielded other questions, like if he will be running for president in 2024.

Newsmax’s Geg Kelly tried pinning the one-term president down multiple times on the subject of a possible run.

“Again, look, it’s a no-brainer, right?” Kelly asked. “You’re going to run for president in 2024, right?”

“Well, we have tremendous support. I won’t say yet, but we have tremendous support. And I’m looking at poll numbers and they’re through the roof,” said Trump. . .

Trump Is Being Sued as a Private Citizen for His Alleged Role in the Capitol Riots

By Townhall. After the Senate voted to acquit former President Donald Trump on the article of impeachment for “inciting an insurrection,” Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) said he believed a civil lawsuit could be brought against the former president.

“President Trump is still liable for everything he did while he was in office, as an ordinary citizen. Unless the statute of limitations is run, he’s still liable for everything he did while he was in office,” McConnell said on the Senate floor. “He didn’t get away with anything, yet.”

And now House Homeland Security Committee Chairman Bennie Thompson (D-MD) is taking McConnell’s advice. He filed a lawsuit against Trump, Rudy Giuliani, the Proud Boys and the Oath Keepers for their alleged roles in the Capitol riots.

According to the lawsuit, the defendants “conspired to incite an assembled crowd to march upon and enter the Capitol of the United States for the common purpose of disrupting, by the use of force, intimidation and threat, the approval by Congress of the count of votes cast by members of the Electoral College as required by Article II, Section 1 of the United States Constitution.” . . .

“…the Defendants each intended to prevent, and ultimately delayed, members of Congress from discharging their duty commanded by the United States Constitution to approve the results of the Electoral College in order to elect the next President and Vice President of the United States,” the lawsuit states.
