President Donald Trump said on Tuesday he is sure to seek a second term in 2020.
“Yes, 100%,” Trump told Fox Business television in an interview due to air later in the day.
Trump shocked the world in his 2016 victory over Democratic favourite Hillary Clinton in the United States.
Even before upsetting predictions of an easy Clinton win, Trump defeated a string of traditional Republican candidates to secure his party’s nomination. Since then, he has deeply polarized the nation with his combative style.
A long line of Democrats have also begun to explore running against Trump in 2020 and on Tuesday the president said he thought that former New York mayor Michael Bloomberg, a media mogul, would join the list.
But, as with other potential rivals, Trump dismissed a Bloomberg challenge. “I think he’d be easy,” he said.
