Donald Trump reveals plan after claiming he would end Ukraine war ‘in 24 hours’
Donald Trump and his allies are planning to expand presidential powers if he is elected to the White House in 2024, it has been revealed.
Based on the former president’s campaign policy proposals and interviews with people close to him, The New York Times reported that he plans to increase the White House’s authority over every aspect of the federal government should he return to the Oval Office.
This comes after Mr Trump lost a bid to have the Georgia election interference case thrown out after the state’s supreme court ruled against him. The ex-president is accused of trying to bully state officials to change the results in the wake of his 2020 defeat, telling them to “find” him enough votes to win the state.
A decision on charges is expected next month.
A former Trump White House official has written a new book which quotes a senior former intelligence official warning that a second Trump term poses such a danger that it could mean the country barely exists in its current form by the time of America’s tricentennial in 2076.
