Last month, Donald Trump said he was ‘gonna look at’ running for president in 2016. And while Jeb Bush is going to ‘actively explore’ 2016 presidential run, Trump is now saying he’s “very strongly” considering a run for the White House.
His comments came Monday night at the Economic Club in Washington, D.C.
“I am considering it very strongly,” Trump said during a discussion with philanthropist David Rubenstein, according to ABC News.
A lot of people think I’m having fun with it, that I’m playing games, that I enjoy the process. And I do enjoy the process to a certain extent, Trump said. Frankly I just think we need something very good, very fast or we’re going to be in very big trouble as a country.
Trump says if he decides to run, a decision will come in “March, April or May” of 2015.
And if he does shoot for the White House, it’s not really because he wants to.
“I would rather do what I’m doing than run for president,” Trump said. “But I also love the country more, and I just think that unless I see somebody that’s outstanding I would be very much be inclined to do it.”
