Maybe Cheeto should announce his intent to run in 2024...in 2025.

Trump thinks the Mar-a-Lago search will help him in 2024. Some allies aren't so sure.

A wild two weeks for Trump has reoriented his thinking about announcing a presidential campaign before the midterms, people who have spoken with him recently said.

The day after federal agents searched Mar-a-Lago, former President Donald Trump told a group of conservative lawmakers that “being president was hell,” according to three people at the meeting.

But to some he sounded ready to have the job again.

“He was not to be deterred,” said Rep. Randy Weber of Texas, one of a dozen Republican House members who met with Trump on Aug. 9. He described Trump’s state of mind in the immediate aftermath of the search as “pretty miffed, but measured.”

Taken together, it’s reoriented Trump’s thinking about whether he should announce a presidential campaign before or after the midterm elections, according to those who have spoken with him over the past two weeks. They said Trump feels less pressure to announce early because viable challengers who might otherwise force his hand have faded into the background. But there are other reasons to wait. 

When, in 2025, he's told that the election was in 2024, he'll cry three things.

"Fraud!"

"Fake news!"

"Gimme money!" (OK, that one may first out of his mouth :) )
