MSNBC guest Donny Deutsch claimed Friday that former President Donald Trump “will not be a candidate” in the 2024 presidential election because he’s “going to go to jail” for fraud.

In an appearance on “Morning Joe,” Deutsch discussed with host Joe Scarborough the investigations and lawsuits surrounding Trump, his popularity within the Republican Party and how the party has become “radical.”

“With everything that’s going on right now in Cyrus Vance’s office, with everything that’s going on in the New York state attorney’s office, with everything that’s going on with prosecutors’ offices all over America, with everything that’s going on with all the civil lawsuits against Donald Trump all across America, with all the business problems that Donald Trump is having,” Scarborough began, “someone saying they are going to vote for Donald Trump in 2024 has about as much impact as me saying I’m going to fly to Mars on a rocket ship that you build in your backyard.”

Scarborough went on to say that “nobody” thinks Trump is going to run for president in 2024 anymore. He added that everyone knows he’s going to “be buried in lawsuits” and “possible criminal charges” and that things will “look radically different” a year from now.

“Yeah. Look, Donald Trump is going to go to jail. I really believe that. If you understand … the things that he has done are absolute tax fraud, absolute bank fraud, absolute insurance fraud. And, Donald Trump will not be a candidate in 2024. Donald Trump will not be a viable alternative,” Deutsch responded. “But you’ve got every one of these Republicans who just somehow believe that this is still the holy grail, and if they move away from him that they won’t get reelected … And they’re not wrong. When you still see that 75% of Republicans think that he should be the man, that 87% think that he had nothing to do with the insurrection.”

Deutsch then said if anyone wanted to know “where the state of the Republican Party is,” they just need to “look at the CPAC speakers this weekend.” He listed some scheduled speakers and compared the list to CPAC speakers from previous years.

“It is the radical Republican Party right now. And it’s the Republican Party of cowards. They are just right now paying homage to this false god, this false idol, Donald Trump, and just protecting their jobs. It’s not more complicated than that,” he added.

Trump is currently under investigation for potential tax fraud by New York County District Attorney Cyrus Vance and has sought to block the release of his financial records from prosecutors. The U.S. Supreme Court denied Trump’s request to keep the records private Monday.

Trump is scheduled to speak at CPAC on Sunday, in his first public speaking appearance since leaving office in January. It is expected that he will speak about the future of the Republican Party. He has yet to announce if he will seek the Republican nomination for president in 2024, but he left the door open to a possible second run for the White House in a Newmax interview Feb. 17.

Readers,

Instead of sucking up to the political and corporate powers that dominate America, The Daily Caller is fighting for you — our readers. We humbly ask you to consider joining us in this fight.

Now that millions of readers are rejecting the increasingly biased and even corrupt corporate media and joining us daily, there are powerful forces lined up to stop us: the old guard of the news media hopes to marginalize us; the big corporate ad agencies want to deprive us of revenue and put us out of business; senators threaten to have our reporters arrested for asking simple questions; the big tech platforms want to limit our ability to communicate with you; and the political party establishments feel threatened by our independence.

We don't complain -- we can't stand complainers -- but we do call it how we see it. We have a fight on our hands, and it's intense. We need your help to smash through the big tech, big media and big government blockade.

We're the insurgent outsiders for a reason: our deep-dive investigations hold the powerful to account. Our original videos undermine their narratives on a daily basis. Even our insistence on having fun infuriates them -- because we won’t bend the knee to political correctness.

One reason we stand apart is because we are not afraid to say we love America. We love her with every fiber of our being, and we think she's worth saving from today’s craziness.

Help us save her.

A second reason we stand out is the sheer number of honest responsible reporters we have helped train. We have trained so many solid reporters that they now hold prominent positions at publications across the political spectrum. Hear a rare reasonable voice at a place like CNN? There’s a good chance they were trained at Daily Caller. Same goes for the numerous Daily Caller alumni dominating the news coverage at outlets such as Fox News, Newsmax, Daily Wire and many others.

Simply put, America needs solid reporters fighting to tell the truth or we will never have honest elections or a fair system. We are working tirelessly to make that happen and we are making a difference.

Since 2010, The Daily Caller has grown immensely. We're in the halls of Congress. We're in the Oval Office. And we're in up to 20 million homes every single month. That's 20 million Americans like you who are impossible to ignore.

We can overcome the forces lined up against all of us. This is an important mission but we can’t do it unless you — the everyday Americans forgotten by the establishment — have our back.

Please consider becoming a Daily Caller Patriot today, and help us keep doing work that holds politicians, corporations and other leaders accountable. Help us thumb our noses at political correctness. Help us train a new generation of news reporters who will actually tell the truth. And help us remind Americans everywhere that there are millions of us who remain clear-eyed about our country's greatness.

In return for membership, Daily Caller Patriots will be able to read The Daily Caller without any of the ads that we have long used to support our mission. We know the ads drive you crazy. They drive us crazy too. But we need revenue to keep the fight going. If you join us, we will cut out the ads for you and put every Lincoln-headed cent we earn into amplifying our voice, training even more solid reporters, and giving you the ad-free experience and lightning fast website you deserve.

Patriots will also be eligible for Patriots Only content, newsletters, chats and live events with our reporters and editors. It's simple: welcome us into your lives, and we'll welcome you into ours.

We can save America together.

Become a Daily Caller Patriot today.
