Donald Trump assured in his grand comeback at CPAC on Sunday that he will not form a new political party because it would further divide the GOP– and the former president previewed another White House run in 2024.
‘Do you miss me yet?’ Trump asked the roaring crowd as he took the stage more than one hour later than scheduled.
The former president repeated his claims of voter fraud at several points during his 90-minute remarks on Sunday, claiming the Supreme Court should be ‘ashamed’ for refusing to overturn the results in his favor.

‘While the GOP casts about for a path forward, President Biden is going to remain laser-focused on crushing the virus, re-opening schools, and getting Americans back to work,’ he continued.
The former president used his stage time – exactly 90 minutes – to push his repeated claims of voter fraud.
‘Actually as you know, they just lost the White House, but it’s one of those things,’ he said of Democrats, continuing on with his claim that Joe Biden did not legitimately win the 2020 presidential election.
‘But who knows, who knows, I may even decide to beat them for a third time,’ he said, previewing a potential 2024 run to take back the…
