Ex-GOP Lawmaker Gives Voters Sobering Reality Check About Donald Trump 2028

David Jolly addressed the idea that the former president "loses and he goes away."

Donald Trump may have said he wont run for president in 2028 if he loses the 2024 election.

But former Rep. David Jolly  (R-Fla.) isnt buying it.

A lot of people, even Republicans , even MAGA Republicans, might say, Donald Trump loses and he goes away, Jolly told MSNBC s Joy Reid on Monday, the eve of the presidential election.

He doesnt go away. He might go to prison but I promise you, he will consider running in 2028, Jolly predicted.

If Trump is not the King in 28, he will be the kingmaker, the former congressman added. He will have an Apprentice Republican primary down at Mar-a-Lago to control the 28 process. Hes not going anywhere.

Jollys prediction came during a discussion about Trumps possible post-election efforts to overturn the result, should he lose to Democratic rival Kamala Harris .

One of the first ways Donald Trump will try to say the election was stolen is there will very likely be an undervote in most states between the number of people who vote for Donald Trump and the next down-ballot state-wide Republican, Jolly explained.

Republicans will claim votes are stolen from Trump but they just dont realize people dont like Donald Trump, thats why theyre doing it, said Jolly.

The certification of the election in 2025 is ultimately what Trump will be playing to, he added. This is a race all the way to January for Donald Trump, he warned.
