Nov 4 (Reuters) - Former U.S. President Donald Trump's inner circle is discussing announcing the launch of a 2024 presidential campaign on Nov 14, Axios reported on Friday, citing three sources familiar with the discussions.
Trump teased a strong possibility of a comeback during a rally in Iowa on Thursday.
"And now, in order to make our country successful and safe and glorious, I will very, very, very probably do it again," the former president said during the rally on Thursday night, teasing a 2024 bid.

We are about to find out whether the media in this country is worth a damn. He should be hounded, and those who are pushing for this should be hounded , from now until 2024.
Worst friggin' mistake he could make. We don't need the shyte going on in the U.S. anymore.
He and Biden both need to be locked up in the loony bin.
At least somebody convinced Trump not to make such an announcement before the midterm election.
The media would practically have him on the ballot.
Trump has been "hinting" that he is running for so long now it is hard to imagine how he could back down now.
For years some people , here and elsewhere, having been trying to argue that Trump is washed up, is no factor, is yesterdays news, is meaningless, etc, and now we know the actual fact. He will run and he will get the GOP nomination. Then what are you going to do?
That's how he keeps the money coming in. As long as he keeps "hinting" at it, the sheeple throw him their money.
They will continue to back him with money, lies, and stonewalling. Just like they have been doing since 2016.
"He will run and he will get the GOP nomination. Then what are you going to do?"
He might run, but he won't get the nomination. You're sadly confused about his popularity with most Americans, and his die hard election denier base lacks the numbers.
Expect DeSantis to announce by years end..
Roe v Wade decision was very popular and supported amongst most Americans. That didn't stop the GOP from ignoring their constituents then, why would they listen to them now?
The pendulum was being deliberately held back. It shouldn't be surprising that when that pendulum was released, it swung too far.
Late term abortion is going to be banned. Early term abortion is going to be allowed. Now the political fight is going to be over the cut-off point.
That makes no sense. Are you talking a pendulum as far as human rights? And the GOP will swing the other way taking away even more human rights?
Late term abortions only occur due to medical conditions that adversely effect the health of the mother. So the GOP is going to require both the fetus and the pregnant mother to die, rather than just one of them? Okay.
Early term abortion has already been outlawed in many republican states, and will be outlawed in more before this is over. Your statement is blatantly false.
Not when they are just cutting it off with no exceptions, like they are doing right now.
Then a ban on elective late term abortions would be easy for Democrats to accept. Democrats only need to defend medically necessary late term abortions. But, then, if a woman's life can be saved by delivering the infant then Democrats' argument would be rather weak.
Yes, the political pendulum has swung too far. We haven't gone through any election cycles to bring that political pendulum back. Democrats are using hair-on-fire political rhetoric to bring back their extreme position which isn't going to happen.
How many election cycles have there been? A lot of these stringent prohibitions were the result of political opposition to Democrats' extreme political position. Why is it surprising the political pendulum swung too far when the obstacle of Democrats' extreme position was removed?
We aren't going back to the way it was.
Well, women in some GOP states have lost the rights to their own body, and can be forced to undergo potentially deadly physical actions.
It was when it was used to save the life of the pregnant mother, which is the only time late term abortions were used.
Except the bans being imposed do not include exceptions to save the life of the mother, or for rapes.
Lol.
So given you half assed answer; your answer is None.
Trump will not take no for an answer and the Republicans dont know how to tell him no. He will be the nominee.
MAGA has legs in the Republican Party. Republicans are not going to give up the idea of MAGA. It's an inflection point that indicates a shift in the Republican Party away from establishment Reagan politics.
The 2024 Republican primaries will be about turning the idea of MAGA into a policy agenda. Trump isn't a policy wonk so Trump is at a disadvantage.
The fact that you think right wing policy wonks can manipulate Trumps popularity is hilarious.
All Trump needs is 30% of the GOP primary vote (with multiple candidates). If he can get that in state after state in the early primaries he is the winner.
MAGA devoted to him is at least 30% of GOP primary voters.
"MAGA devoted to him is at least 30% of GOP primary voters"
Got a source for this misinformation?
Republican policy wonks are going to be using Trump's popularity to create a political agenda.
Which may not be that easy in a field of MAGA candidates. Right now it's doubtful Trump could beat someone like Kari Lake or Ron DeSantis. MAGA is going mainstream in the Republican Party. Getting rid of Trump won't get rid of MAGA.
Biden acknowledges that with his mega-MAGA hyperbole. But Biden (and Democrats) don't offer a better alternative.
You actually think he would pull a Sarah Palin?
Trump won't make it this time. But Trump has to run to prevent Republican backsliding. The 2024 Republican primaries will be a passing of the MAGA torch. Whoever wins the 2024 Republican nomination will transform MAGA into a policy agenda.
I have to ask, what is the maga policy agenda?
Trump would be a Bernie Sanders - gets to see his name in lights, keep his issues in the open and his dream alive - but there isn't going to be serious traction. There needs to be some counterweight to the current airhead.
If Trump runs he insures that Biden wins a second term...
Exactly what is Biden's platform? Keeping inflation down? How about low gas prices? What about the Afghanistan retreat? Oh, I know - slowing illegal immigration and securing the borders!
How are republicans going to keep inflation or gas prices down?
That's easy. Look at everything the Democrats are doing - and do the opposite.
So no plan, gotcha.
I swear, just yell and scream about everything while offering no plans.
So again, no plan...
So for a third time, no plan, just deflection.
For a forth time, no plan at al....
Wtf....you show some link that doesn't even say what you did.
So your only answer is they are going to cut spending. Since we know they are going to get the house, I guess we will see.
I don't think anyone has cut the budget since Clinton.
The middle column is spending, ie budget, which year again did Clinton cut the Budget?
Invoke? Hahaha
Omg. So only one administration had really managed to cut the budget, yes with republicans, so I have no idea what you are complaining about now.
If they can manage to do it in a sensible way, more power to them.
You should link to where you got your numbers from.
So according to that, not one single president or congress was able to cut the budget.
You made the claim: "I don't think anyone has cut the budget since Clinton."
Post your proof or accept mine that you are wrong!
So according to that, not one single president or congress was able to cut the budget.
This shows a lack of critical thinking, 8 years of data and you extrapolate it to all presidents?
Here's a drop,
$0.291
And some more,
Do you know who didn't cut the budget? Clinton!
I will accept your proof if you can link to where you got the numbers. I will admit I was wrong about the budget. I am not that petty.
I can write numbers myself...
Imo the only thing that can combat inflation is stability.
I don't think either side has a plan and I think any scheme to say one certain thing would help is disingenuous.
But I admit I am no economist.
Point being, massive spending has not stopped by either side.
I guess you conveniently gloss over where I stated if they could do it, in a sensible way, I would be for it.
Economists say a lot of things. Spending is not the sole reason for inflation.
Past Congressional and Presidential Budget performance is increasingly irrelevant to future budgets.
In 2019, Entitlement spending was 56% and debt interest 8.4%. COVID spending in 2020, 2021 temporarily skewed those numbers but when back on track for higher entitlement and interest spending that neither Congress or the President controls.
