So Orange Slug plans to make an announcement today, but...

He said this expecting a red wave. So is he going to make an announcement that many expect, which is his run for president in 2024, or is he just going to whine about whatever he feels as a spite towards him?

He apparently wanted to make it after November 8th on what many was saying was going to be a red wave. If he was smart he would climb in him hole and keep quiet.

and be 3rd in line to the presidency. This guy doesn't want to go through the election, he wants to be "reinstated".

my guess is his announcement will be about some new idiot "product" he wants his base to purcahse.

I think he saw what happened when he's in the deep end of the pool and didn't like it at all, and would now prefer to stay in the shallows while yelling madly without merit at the professional divers.

He doesn't really know how to engage, only how to annoy others and get in people's way. Sitting on his gilded toilet in the shallows, shouting at others to correct a benign irrelevancy is his last and only defining characteristic.

He's going to announce he's running then hand the podium over to Garland who will announce that he can't indict a candidate running for president.

11. Yes, he will announce, and no, it doesn't matter that his party just had its ass handed to it

Trump is only about Trump. The Republican Party is the vehicle he uses to drive into a crowded street to take out innocent bystanders.

NO WAY this narcissist will not run. Like Mary Trump says, he’ll burn that party into the ground before he leaves. I believe that. He doesn’t care about the party, his country, his supporters, americans. He doesn’t care about anyone or anything. He just wants his fix.

Just $ 29.00 a month to get his inside information.

With just 3 million subscribers he gets $ 100 million/month

15. Well if the fascists follow history, his next announcement will be the formation of a new party.

That he of course, will control. 9-29-2020 DJT to Proud Boys "stand back and stand by". Oath Keepers mission statement before -1-6 "we are the private army of DJT and are commanded only by him".
His next step will be to unite the smaller factions of his cult under one large tent and centralize command.
