Embattled former U.S. President Donald Trump threw his hat into the ring for the 2024 White House race Tuesday — an announcement that will reverberate across Japan, where fears of American isolationism surged under his presidency.
“America's comeback starts right now," Trump, 76, told a throng of supporters gathered at his Mar-a-Lago residence in Florida in a widely anticipated move.
"In order to make America great and glorious again, I am tonight announcing my candidacy for president of the United States," Trump said, minutes after filing the official paperwork for a fourth presidential run.
