The former president is expected to make the comments during his keynote address at the Republican National Committee (RNC) donor summit in Florida, according to a draft copy of his speech obtained from multiple news outlets.
The closed-door event largely took place at the Four Seasons resort in Palm Beach. However, according to a report from CNN, guests were transported to Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort to hear him speak.
“We’re meeting tonight to talk about the future of the Republican Party – and what we need to do to put our candidates on track for victory,” Trump is expected to say, according to comments from The Associated Press
“I stand before you with confidence tonight that in 2022 we will take back the House and reclaim the Senate – and then, in 2024, a Republican candidate will win the White House.”

“With an agenda so unpopular, it’s no wonder Joe Biden is the first new president in the modern era to not address a joint session of Congress in the first few weeks,” Trump said.
Trump is also expected to tell donors that the Republican Party will be able to use immigration and the handling of the issue by the Biden administration to reclaim the House, Senate and White House.
“Illegal border crossings are now higher than at any time since 2006,” Fox News reported, Trump’s prepared remarks read. “At this point alone, we can win the House, the Senate and the White House.”
Trump praised his harsh immigration policies throughout his presidency, including his 2020 campaign.
The Biden administration has been criticized by Democrats and Republicans who disagree with his approach to the issue. The US-Mexico border has seen a surge in the number of unaccompanied minors since Biden took office, causing a backlog in the processing of migrants amid the coronavirus pandemic.
March figures released by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) show that US authorities encountered more than 172,000 migrants at the border last month. The number marks a 71 percent increase from February statistics, the highest increase since 2006.
The event comes as the party grapples with Trump’s role in the GOP after a tumultuous last few months in office.
It is unclear at this point whether Trump will flee to the White House again in 2024.
