Former U.S. President Donald Trump has hinted that he would soon launch another presidential bid, vowing to “take back our magnificent White House.”

He told a campaign rally on Monday that he would make a big announcement on November 15.

Speaking on the eve of midterm elections, Mr Trump said he would announce at his Mar-a-Lago Resort in Palm Beach, Florida.

“We want nothing to detract from the importance of tomorrow. This incredible journey that we are on together has only just begun,” he said.

According to Mr Trump, Republicans would take back the House of Representatives.

“We’re going to take back the Senate, and we’re going to take back America,” he said.

The former president added, “And in 2024, most importantly, we are going to take back our magnificent White House.”

Mr Trump spoke the day before midterm elections, where eligible voters were set to determine the majorities in the U.S. Congress.

They were composed of the House of Representatives and the Senate, as well as deciding on numerous governorships and other important offices.

His comments stoked speculation that he was headed for a rematch against President Joe Biden in 2024.

Mr Biden has not formally announced whether he will seek reelection in 2024.
