Background

change

After Joe Biden won the 2020 U.S. presidential election, Trump became the first incumbent president since the 1992 U.S. presidential election to lose his reelection bid. Trump also became the first president since George H. W. Bush to serve one four-year term.

After he lost the election, Trump refused to concede to Biden and accept his loss. He later made widespread false claims of election and voter fraud, despite no evidence to support his claims.

Trump later made many attempts to overturn the election results, block the presidential transition, and stop the certification of his election victory. These events later resulted in the attack on the United States Capitol, which left five people dead and later resulted in his second impeachment, becoming the first U.S. president to be impeached twice.

On November 15, 2022, he announced his candidacy for 2024 presidential election.[8][9][10][11]

This also officially makes Trump's fourth presidential campaign, as he ran for president in 2000, 2016, 2020, and is running again in 2024.

This later caused wide speculation that both Trump and Biden may face a potential rematch in the 2024 election. If Trump and Biden are renominated, this would be the first presidential rematch since the 1956 presidential election.

As of 2024, there are multiple factors working against Trump such as his major criminal cases and legal issues.

In July 2024, Trump picked U.S. Senator JD Vance to be his running mate in the 2024 presidential election.[12]

  1. Trump received enough delegates to win the nomination on March 12, 2024.
