The Biden administration isn’t ruffled by a Trump presidential run for 2024, according to US Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg.

“He can do whatever he likes,” Buttigieg told Yahoo Finance Live on Tuesday morning, declining to say Trump’s name. Buttigieg added the Biden administration is “working on getting results for people” by getting inflation under control and jumping starting investment in the country.

On Tuesday night, at his Mar-a-Lago resort, Trump announced another run for president in 2024 despite the surging popularity of Florida Governor Ron DeSantis among Republicans.

“Former President Donald Trump announced Tuesday that he would again seek the Republican nomination for president in 2024,” Yahoo Newsreported“despite multiple ongoing investigations into his conduct, stinging midterm election losses for the candidates he endorsed, and mounting criticism from members of his own party.”
