Donald Trump has once again teased his feelings concerning a 2024 presidential run.
The 75-year-old former president was recently asked about his intentions regarding a potential White House bid in 2024 during his appearance on Fox News Digital.
Trump once again teased the possibility of once again running for the Oval Office, telling Fox that the country is "getting to a point where we really have no choice".
Describing the state of the country's current leadership as "disgraceful", Trump repeated: "I don't think we're going to have a choice."
And in yet another attack on the Biden administration's withdrawal of US forces from Afghanistan, said: "When you look at Afghanistan and what happened, and the death for no reason, just for no reason."
He added that parents of those in the military "want to speak with" him. "They don’t want to speak with Biden," Trump said, "They're just devastated."
The former POTUS then described the withdrawal as the "greatest embarrassment in the history of our country."
Branding President Joe Biden as "an incompetent person as the leader of our country", Trump would go on to describe the Biden administration as "divisive", saying:
"They keep telling everyone how they want to get together, to be inclusive – they're not inclusive. [...]
"They are very, very dividing and divisive."
Of course, this is not the first time that Trump has teases a 2024 presidential run.
Back in March, he sat down for an interview with daughter-in-law Lara Trump, who asked if his supporters would see him running for office again in the future. Trump replied: "You do have hope, that I can tell you, you do have hope. We love our country, this country, we all owe a lot to our country, but now we have to help our country."
Additionally, back in July, Trump was asked by Fox News host Sean Hannity if he had decided whether or not he will be running to reclaim the White House. After refusing to answer, Hannity said: "You're not going to answer, but I have to ask. Where are you in the process or let me ask you this, without giving the answer... Have you made up your mind [about running in 2024]?"
Without giving anything away, the wealthy businessman-turned-world leader simply responded: "Yes".
I guess only time will tell about what that decision is.
Donald Trump has revealed that he has made up his mind about whether or not he will run for president once again in 2024.
Following Trump's tumultuous time in office, which saw a deadly insurrection at the US Capitol and an unprecedented double impeachment, the 75-year-old Republican has dropped a number of hints that he plans to run again once Biden's first term ends.
While nothing is set in stone as of yet, Trump has let it be known that he's made up his mind about running for president again when asked the question during a recent town hall.
During an appearance on Fox News, the former president spoke with Sean Hannity as the host asked about the ex-president's "future plans".
Check out the moment below:Hannity said: "You're not going to answer, but I have to ask. Where are you in the process or let me ask you this, without giving the answer... Have you made up your mind [about running in 2024]?"
And without giving anything away, the wealthy businessman-turned-world leader simply responded: "Yes".
Since leaving the White House at the start of the year, Trump has repeatedly teased a comeback in 2024.
"I may even decide to beat them for a third time," he said in a speech in February at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) as he falsely implied that he was the rightful winner of the 2020 US presidential election.
Trump first teased a re-run for president last December - a month after he lost to Biden - telling guests at a White House Christmas party: "We are trying to do another four years. Otherwise, I'll see you in four years."
Elsewhere in his discussion with Hannity, the controversial ex-president spoke of migrants causing "incalculable" damage to the US, Independent reports.
He said: "You have not hundreds of thousands, but millions of people storming into our country."
Trump went on to say that these migrants include "some of the worst people on Earth."
He also claimed that his border wall played a substantial role in reducing migration, despite the fact that there was actually a surge in border crossings during the last few months of his presidency, according to the paper.

Donald Trump has hinted that he will run for office again in 2024 in his first on-screen interview since leaving the White House.
The former President spoke about his future political ambitions in a recent 18-minute-long interview with his daughter-in-law, Lara Trump.
In it, Trump mocked his successor Joe Biden for falling down a flight of Air Force One steps, and railed against social media and cancel culture in the wake of his being banned from various platforms, including Facebook and Twitter.
Per The Daily Mail, when asked by Lara if his supporters would see him running for office again in the future, Trump replied:
Watch Trump's farewell address in the video below:"You do have hope, that I can tell you, you do have hope. We love our country, this country, we all owe a lot to our country, but now we have to help our country."
Criticizing Biden's health and the state of his administration, Trump then stated: "People saw a lot of things happening long-prior to the press conference - and even the trip up the stairs - up and down, three times.
"There are a lot of things going on, so we'll see what happens. I hope he's in good shape I hope he's OK for the sake of the country."
This interview comes not long after Trump made a speech at the 2021 Conservative Political Action Conference in Florida, where he repeatedly railed against the Democrat Party and continued to insist without evidence that he had lost the 2020 Presidential election due to voter fraud.
Watch Trump's address in the video below:In a 90-minute long address to the applauding crowd of supporters, Trump again hinted that he was not yet done with politics, stating: "With your help we will take back the House, we will win the Senate, and then a Republican president will make a triumphant return to the White House – and I wonder who that will be."
And upon calling for unity in the GOP, Trump once again backed up his hint by saying: "I may even decide to beat [the Democrats] for a third time."

Donald Trump has responded to President Joe Biden's announcement that he will not be running against him in the 2024 Presidential Election.
In a stunning development on Sunday (July 21), 81-year-old Biden announced that he will not seek reelection, formally withdrawing from the 2024 presidential race.
This decision leaves the Democratic Party in a challenging position as they now face the task of selecting a new candidate to contest against former POTUS Trump, 78.
Biden made the announcement via his official X account.
Describing his tenure as president has being the "greatest honor" of his life, Biden said: "And while it has been my intention to seek reelection, I believe it is in the best interest of my party and the country for me to stand down and to focus solely on fulfilling my duties as President for the remainder of my term."

And while the statement has created a huge fallout on social media, perhaps it is Donald Trump's response that the American people are most eager to see.
Less than an hour after Biden posted his announcement, Trump took to his social media platform Truth Social to share his response.
Trump's full statement can be read in full below:
"Crooked Joe Biden was not fit to run for President, and is certainly not fit to serve - And never was! He only attained the position of President by lies, Fake News, and not leaving his Basement.
"All those around him, including his Doctor and the Media, knew that he wasn’t capable of being President, and he wasn’t - And now, look what he’s done to our Country, with millions of people coming across our Border, totally unchecked and unvetted, many from prisons, mental institutions, and record numbers of terrorists.
"We will suffer greatly because of his presidency, but we will remedy the damage he has done very quickly. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!"
Biden was criticized for his performance against Trump in last month's presidential debate.
The POTUS later put his lacklustre performance down to a hectic schedule which had him traveling "around the world a couple of times" in the days before the debate - admitting that he did "almost fell asleep on stage".
And despite growing calls for him to stand down, Biden remained steadfast that he would be running.

Donald Trump Jr. has teased a potential 2024 presidential run.
The son of former POTUS Donald Trump admitted that while he hasn't "personally thought about it" yet, he's not ruling the idea out as a whole.
Speaking to Fox News at a Conservative Political Action Conference gathering in Texas, Don Jr. echoed his dad as he touted unnamed polls "that [have] me pretty high up the list if not at the top of it."
"Who knows," the 43-year-old said.
"The reality with that job is you also have to want to do the day job, right? It's not just about the campaigning," Don Jr. said.
"I love being in that fight. I love fighting for the things that are out there, that I believe in as a conservative. I will do that irrespective. To want to actually get in that mix, is a whole different story."
Last month, President Trump's daughter-in-law, Lara Trump, also ruled out a forthcoming Senate run, although she added that she's not saying "no forever."
As for the former POTUS himself, whose business is currently facing criminal charges, an official 2024 presidential run announcement has yet to take place.
Despite there not being an official announcement, Trump last month told Fox News host Sean Hannity that he has made up his mind about whether or not he will run.
Following Trump's tumultuous time in office, which saw a deadly insurrection at the US Capitol and an unprecedented double impeachment, the Republican has dropped a number of hints that he plans to run again once Biden's first term ends.

Donald Trump has once again appeared to hint at a potential 2024 presidential campaign.
In a sit-down interview with GB News, the former president spoke to British politician and Brexit campaigner Nigel Farage when he teased a White House run.
Trump said his supporters would be "very happy" when he eventually makes an announcement.
Farage, a former member of the European parliament, asked Trump why he would "give up an amazing life" and consider reentering politics, which Farage described as "absolute hell."
Watch Trump tease a potential 2024 run:"If you love the country, you have no choice," Trump said. "It's not a question ... this is a wonderful, beautiful life—but I like that too because I was helping people. That's why I did it."
"And I think you'll be happy in the future, too," the former president added.
In May, the former president said his supporters would be "very, very happy" when he makes "a certain announcement" and he has returned to such language many times, promising his supporters will be pleased by his decision.
Trump has suggested he could make an announcement after the 2022 midterm elections where he has endorsed several Republican candidates, though the first presidential primaries do not take place until early 2024.
"I think if I run, I'll get it," Trump said, citing his approval rating among Republicans. "If I decide to run, I'll get it easily," he said, adding: "Most people said if I run, they won't run against me."
It comes as the ex-POTUS visited Iowa in October, for a campaign-style rally at Iowa State Fairgrounds in the capital Des Moines.
Despite not having officially announced his candidacy yet, Trump teased a future campaign's potential political slogan, per The Times.
"Make America Great Again, Again," he told the crowd. "Because we already did it."
This refers to the former president's 2016 campaign slogan, "Make America Great Again," which is often seen on the iconic red hats of his supporters.
Per The Times, the new slogan, he said, is different from his 2020 slogan, "Keep America Great," because "America's not great now."
Back in March, he sat down for an interview with daughter-in-law Lara Trump, who asked if his supporters would see him running for office again in the future.
Trump replied: "You do have hope, that I can tell you, you do have hope. We love our country, this country, we all owe a lot to our country, but now we have to help our country."
