Several Republican presidential candidates are coming out and assuring voters that their goal is to become president of the United States in 2024, despite former President Donald Trump holding a 50-point lead over most of them.
Trump himself said on Sunday that he sees some rival GOP candidates as"good potential Cabinet members" and a possible running mate, as well. However, GOP candidates have been quick to shoot down speculation that they entered the 2024 election to become vice president under Trump or anyone.A RealClearPolitics analysis of recent polls shows Trump leading in all of them, with an RCP average of 53%. He holds a 32.4% lead against Gov. Ron DeSantis , who polls at 20.6%.
GOP presidential candidate Larry Elder, who has an RCP average of 0.3%, told the Washington Examiner"I'm running for president" when asked if his goal was to sit in the White House or in the Cabinet. "Vivek is running to lead a national revival and unite the country," Ramaswamy's spokesperson said."He expects to be our next president and isn't interested in a VP slot."
Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, who is polling at an RCP average of 2.5%, quickly shut down speculation that he was in the race for anything other than the GOP nomination on Sunday.
