Spooked by Jan. 6 revelations, the former president is expected to announce this summer.

Trump’s urge to jump in early appears to have been further fueled by his anger toward the January 6 committee hearings. Trump recently used his Truth Social account to share a poll showing him leading in a putative GOP primary, even though other polls have suggested DeSantis might do better with voters.

'I believe in the party, and I believe in what the party can be and what the party can stand for. 'I think we may well as a committee have a view on that and if you just think about it from the perspective of what kind of man knows that a mob is armed and sends the mob to attack the Capitol and further incites that mob when his own vice president is under threat, when the Congress is under threat,' Cheney said.
