Trump’s 2024 Calculus: The More GOP Rivals, The Better For Him | HuffPost Latest News

Former President Donald Trump watches the first round of the LIV Golf Tournament at Trump National Golf Club, Friday, May 26, 2023, in Sterling, Va. When Republican Sen.

There were no accusations of disloyalty or nasty nicknames from the GOP front-runner like the barrage he unleashed when Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, considered his leading rival, joined the race two days later with a bungled Twitter announcement. (AP Photo/Alex Brandon, File)
