Trump says he made up his mind about running in 2024 during 'Hannity' exclusive

[Music] all right as we continue hannity on the ground in texas tonight we continue with the former president donald trump what a great crowd we don't have a lot of time but let's talk about your future plans now i have a fun [Music] let me ask the crowd of everybody here would you like to see the president running in in 2024 you're not going to answer but i have to ask where are you in the process of or have let me ask you this without giving the answer what the answer is have you made up your mind yes yes i think you got it right yeah when you look you know what's funny because i've known you 25 years and i remember when you first talking about running and we actually argued remember we'd argue about certain things in iraq and and certain wars and everything and then you became president and i remember when i supported you i said i i said he will govern as a conservative and people didn't understand you really governed as conservative as any president in the modern day that is your core belief and actually you have known me for a long time and my views have never really changed i mean i've if you look at my views my views haven't changed i felt this way about these crazy endless wars where we're losing so many wonderful young beautiful people and we're not fighting we're just sort of there and we don't do it you know we knocked out isis you saw what i did during a short period of time over a period of a year and a half wiped out the caliphate isis wiped out the caliphate it was uh it was getting worse and worse but we got to bring our people back home it's time 21 years in afghanistan 21 years and so uh we rebuilt our military it was totally depleted it was it was terrible we had jets that were 40 years old jet fighters that were 40 years old that they didn't make parts for anymore you had to go to the desert to get the parts where they have what they call the airplane graveyards and we have now all brand new planes brand new everything all made in the usa now we have to get we have to get ourselves set we have to reorient but uh the middle east has been a disaster for this country we've spent trillions and trillions of dollars we got nothing and the beauty was we didn't need their oil anymore but now we're going to need their oil again because we're not going to be energy independent we're not very long here we're right i don't believe we are now and you're you're when i left it was a dollar eighty seven a gallon for a guess and now it's three and a half it's almost a dollar thirty more just since joe's gotten to be president let me ask you a question because i would argue and i did argue on air often that you treated a whole other standard for you if you had sons that lied on a gun permit through a gun in a dumpster uh smoke crack got money from ukraine with no experience kazakhstan no experience russia with no experience a hundred thousand dollar shopping spree and a 1.5 billion dollar deal with the bank of china with military connections i have a funny feeling that the media would go after you it would be unrelenting why does joe biden get a pass the democrats get a pass hillary clinton got a pass the democrats get a pass you look at a guy like bill barr they said they're going to impeach him and once they said they're going to impeach him he became a whole he became afraid he became afraid i said what's wrong with you he became scared they go after people they go after him so hard and so viciously and all of a sudden that's what happens not in all cases we have some people that are incredible but you have some people they get brought over to the other side for fear and we can't have that we have to we have to fight so strong look at me they go after me with mueller with this one with that one with impeachment one impeachment i call it the impeachment oaks one and two and all of this all nonsense made up stuff in fact they were the ones who were guilty they come after me new york radical left prosecutors come after me you got to always fight you got to keep fighting it's a disgusting thing it's very important i guess they don't call politics a blood sport for for no reason if you move forward you know how difficult it is but you seem ready to re-engage in in that battle and it's not that i want to the country needs it we we have to take care of the structure i don't want to is this fun fighting constantly fighting always i mean the country what we've done is so important when i say the greatest tax cuts now they want to raise your taxes they want to double your taxes and nobody and the republicans in the senate and the house but the republicans in the senate have to fight hard that the taxes don't get up because that'll be terrible for the country i i've known you for years i've watched you for years at trump tower i watched you all the years you were in the white house you sleep maybe four hours a night four and a half five max um you never stop working joe biden averages less than one scheduled event a day gets up at 9 30. he gets his warm milky and sippy cup around 7 p.m if he's good he gets a night night story now in all seriousness we saw what happened at the g7 where he just was paralyzed you see what happens how he struggles to communicate i asked you and you kind of punted the last time you were on do you see a cognitive decline in joe biden and what does that mean to america well let me say it a little bit differently he is surrounded by vicious people that are very smart but they don't stand for the values that the people in this room stand for these are very smart people i mean he didn't campaign against me he didn't debate well he didn't make good speeches he's hid in the basement i watched him on the state of the union get up and speak and it was terrible it was i don't want to go into that but it was terrible it was a terrible and i thought he was going to get killed and i had to watch your competition just to see what they were saying now fdr was a great speaker you remember some of the speeches he made were incredible and the only thing you have to fear is fear itself with that beautiful sure they compared him to fdr okay now the good news is they've lost you should have been watching hannity that was not always happening no i know i watched that well that one i could have predicted yeah but no but look there was nothing good it was embarrassing and they were comparing him to fdr now it was so embarrassing to watch that i couldn't believe it i was surprised i watched specifically because i said he's going to get killed he didn't get killed they said great and nancy was sitting behind him with the single biggest mask i've ever seen that was a that was a large it covered her entire face i've never seen anything like it no i've never seen anything like it i've got to write she didn't rip up his speech either like she did with you rip mr president thank you very much
