BEDMINSTER, New Jersey — Former President Donald Trump, the leading Republican candidate for president in 2024, told Breitbart News exclusively in a long-form video interview of his major policy vision for a return to the White House should voters send him back to the Oval Office next year.

Trump, who is currently leading by far in the GOP primary and in many cases leading or tied with incumbent Democrat President Joe Biden in general election surveys, said he is confident and hopeful he will be able to hang on and win another term in the White House.

"I think so. I hope so," Trump said when asked if he believes he will win next year. "I hope so for the country or we're going to have a country that's finished. I have people coming up to me all the time crying — men, women, strong people, smart people — and they're crying say 'if you don't win, sir, our country is finished. Our country is finished.' I believe it."
