Former Trump national security advisor John Bolton says he is considering 2024 presidential bid

Former National Security Adviser John Bolton speaks to reporters after speaking in a panel hosted by the National Council of Resistance of Iran – U.S. Representative Office (NCRI-US) at the Willard InterContinental Hotel on August 17, 2022 in Washington, DC.

The man who was Donald Trump's national security advisor for more than a year said Monday that he is considering running for president in 2024.

The one thing that would spur him to run would be to make it clear to the people of this country that Donald Trump is not the republican nominee.

When he suggested over the weekend that the nation's supreme law could be terminated in order to put him back in the White House, he called it "un-American" for Trump to challenge the constitution.

The former US ambassador to the UN called the former president's declaration an "immense threat to the republic itself"

In a social media post Saturday, Trump claimed that a massive fraud of this type and magnitude would allow for the end of all rules, regulations, and articles in the constitution.

Trump said it was fake news to say he wanted to destroy the Constitution. If an election is fraudulent, it should go to the winner or to the minimum, according to Trump.

Trump's sentiment is "not merely wrong and outrageous, it is disqualifying," said the US ambassador.

If Donald Trump were to take the oath of office again, he would either be lying about protecting and defending the Constitution, or he wouldn't say it at all, according to JohnBolton. You can't have that approach. One can agree with it. This is important to the country.

Trump is the only Republican who has said he will run for president in the next election. Several other Republicans are expected to run for the GOP nomination.

Attacks on the Constitution should be condemned, according to the Biden administration. When asked for comment, many top Republicans have kept their mouths shut.

Every prospective candidate for a leadership role in the Republican Party should repudiate Trump's comments, according to the national security adviser.

If they don't, there's one thing that would get me to get into the presidential race, which I looked at in prior elections, it would be to make it clear to the people of this country that Donald Trump is unacceptable as the Republican nominee

When asked if he would enter the race, he said he would. He said that to be a presidential candidate you have to support the Constitution and oppose people who would undermine it.

When you challenge the Constitution the way Trump has done, that is un-American.

He asked other Republicans to do the same. He said that he didn't understand why they weren't saying it right now.

The majority of GOP voters agree that Donald Trump is more important than the constitution. A candidate needs to lose if they appeal to the majority of the Republican Party.

If Trump does not condemn him from other candidates, then I will seriously consider getting into the race.

National security issues will dominate that election cycle, and the isolationist virus that Trump has let loose needs to be addressed, as well, according to the former UN ambassador.

The late GOP President Ronald Reagan had a more positive message. The former national security advisor said his platform could be similar to Reagan's.

He said he was not a social conservative.

He said that he might make a decision on whether to run earlier than he thought.
