Donald Trump discusses the possibility of running for the White House if voters find him “good”

The president-elect raised the possibility of a new candidacy for the presidential election in front of his troops.

Donald Trump raised this Wednesday, November 13, the possibility of running for the White House, which is prohibited by the American Constitution, during a speech to Republicans in Washington.

“I think I won't run again, unless you say to yourself 'he's good, we have to consider something else',” the president-elect declared to a laughing crowd.

The Twenty-Second Amendment to the United States Constitution limits the number of terms that the President of the United States may serve to two terms, whether consecutive or not. It was adopted shortly after the end of the last term of Franklin Delano Roosevelt, elected president four times.

Historic handshake with Joe Biden

After this meeting with Republican elected officials, Donald Trump then went to the White House for a historic meeting with Joe Biden, the first since their televised debate last summer.

After shaking hands with the outgoing head of state in the Oval Office, the 45th and soon 47th American president declared that the transition would be “the smoothest ever”.

The two men, seated near a fireplace, made very short statements before beginning their meeting, which was attended by their respective chiefs of staff.

“We will do everything possible to make sure you have everything you need,” said Joe Biden, who in recent years has often called Donald Trump a danger to American democracy. He offered his “congratulations” to the president-elect and wished him a “welcome return” to the most famous office in the world, which Donald Trump occupied from 2017 to 2021.

“Politics is hard, and often it’s not a very pleasant world. But it’s a pleasant world today and I’m grateful,” said the Republican, who had refused to receive Joe Biden in 2020 after his defeat.
