"We are confident that the fair-minded Supreme Court will unanimously affirm the civil rights of President Trump, and the voting rights of all Americans."

"[T]he legal arguments against disqualification are ultimately unsound, and most are very weak."

"[M]y bet is that... even the liberal justices will lean toward allowing voters to decide whether Trump is fit to be president."

Barring Trump from public office "would be the mildest of punishments."

The Jan. 6 riot "is something that could disqualify him, under our rules, and under the constitution."

"The former president's efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election, and the resulting attack on the US Capitol, place him squarely within the ambit of the disqualification clause."

"[A] plain and fair reading of Section 3... demonstrates that Trump is constitutionally disqualified from holding future public office."

"I think it's really actually very clearcut... [Section 3 is] in general language, and so it applies to anyone who incites an insurrection or rebellion."

"I will do everything in my power to unite the Democratic Party... to defeat Donald Trump... And together, we will win."

"This is a race Democrats can and must win."

"If the Democrats can be unified... then they have a good chance to win in November."

"I’d be very wary and a bit cautious on assuming that Trump is just going to sail to victory."

"Donald Trump’s hopes of claiming the White House just went from near certain to extremely uncertain" now Biden has dropped out.

"This kind of chaos this close to Election Day means Trump is going to win."

"It doesn’t matter whom the Democrats pick... Donald Trump will win in November."

"Donald Trump is now the de facto president."

"If the 2024 presidential election is a race between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris then Trump will win, every time, and most likely win easily."

"Harris will be easier to beat than Joe Biden would have been."

Who Will Win the 2024 US Presidential Election?

Trump's team have confirmed that they have hired Corey Lewandowski, Taylor Budowach, Alex Pfeiffer, Alex Bruesewitz, and Tim Murtaugh to the Republican's candidate's 2024 campaign, stating that their "unmatched experience" will help "prosecute the case against... the most radical ticket in American history."

New York Post

The Daily Beast

Lewandowski initially ran Trump's 2016 presidential campaign, Murtaugh served as the Republican nominee's communications director in 2020, while Pfeiffer, Brusewitz, and Budowich have all worked at pro-Trump Super PAC MAGA Inc.

The Western Journal

Lewandowski also worked at MAGA Inc. until 2021, when he was fired after being accused of sexually harassing a donor. The campaign advisor later agreed a deal with prosecutors to avoid a misdemeanour charge for the incident.

The Washington Examiner

Posting on Truth Social, Trump wrote that Lewandowski would be joining the campaign as a senior adviser, before  stating that "others" would be announced 'soon." The former president also reaffirmed support for the heads of the 2024 campaign management team, Susie Wiles and Chris LaCivita, describing them as "the best."

Truth Social

Lewandowski also has stated following his appointment that he has been with former pres. Trump "since Day 1," and was "excited to be back on the Campaign Team to help deliver victory in 2024."

In response to the news, a statement by the Democrat National Committee (DNC) described Lewandowski as an "disgraced lowlife," and accused Trump of "shar[ing] his values" with "crooks, convicts, and creeps."
