Read our privacy policy Donald Trump is vowing to stay in the 2024 presidential race even if he is indicted in any of the multiple criminal investigations bearing down on him. “Absolutely, I wouldn’t even think about leaving,” the former president told reporters ahead of his speech at the annual Conservative Political Action Conference, speculating that being the target of a criminal indictment could even “enhance” his poll numbers. Criminal indictments are expected any moment from a Georgia investigation into the Trump campaign’s efforts to sway election tallies during the 2020 presidential contest, including an infamous phone call between Mr Trump and the Georgia secretary of state which took place in early 2021. On that call, Mr Trump famously asked Republican Brad Raffensperger to “find” nearly 12,000 votes which he would have needed to steal the state from Joe Biden.
