Minnesota governor and former vice presidential candidate Tim Waltz, D., said he would consider running for president in 2028.
in Interview When The New Yorker was released on Sunday, Waltz said a friend told him “never turn down a job you're not being offered.”
“But I'm not so rog-harmed to believe there are so many people who can do this,” Waltz said.
Pushing further he said, “I will do whatever it takes. I certainly wouldn't be rog-worried to think it needs to be me.”
Waltz said there is no higher ambition for an elected office, but added, “If you are asked to serve, you should want to do that.”
Waltz also discussed his view that former Vice President Harris lost to President Trump in November. He said he opposed people who said that if Biden had dropped out of the election earlier than he had, the outcome of the election would have been different.
“I don't think it works that way,” he said. “As a party, I think we just need to do a better connection job.”
As Democrats tackled ways to hold Trump down in their first term, Waltz said it was “naive” to look for a compromise with the president.
“He's not interested in finding a common position with us. He sees us as a disability and a disability, so I think he'll continue to move to remove the obstacles as much as he can,” Waltz said of Trump.
He also criticized the Secretary of Defense. Pete HegsesMinnesotan's companions say Hegus is “really worried” about him because of his “rebellious views” towards women.
Hegseth previously said that women should not serve in military combat roles, but returned those comments during a Senate confirmation hearing.
Last week, a Waltz spokesperson said the governor was inevitable that a Senate seat is vacant by Senator Tina Smith (D).
Walz “loves his job as governor and he explores the possibilities of another term of office that will continue his job to make Minnesota the best state for his children,” according to his spokesperson Teddy Tschann.
