Democrat Senator Amy Klobuchar has opened the door to another run for the White House.
The Minnesota Senator made an appearance on Jake Tapper’s ‘State of the Union’ on Sunday morning, where she was asked about her ambitions moving forward as the Democratic Party tries to rebuild itself in the wake of their humiliating 2024 election defeat.
Here is a transcript of the exchange:
TAPPER: You visited New Hampshire last weekend to campaign for Congressman Chris Pappas in his Senate race.
New Hampshire, of course, an early primary state now that Joe Biden is no longer in office, New Hampshire goes back to the front of the line.
Are you considering at all a presidential run in 2028? and what do democrats need to do to get there to get your dismal approval ratings up?
KLOBUCHAR: I think every Democrat, national Democrat, including myself, is focused on this upcoming election, which is the midterms. That’s why I was there to help Chris Pappas, who’s a tremendous candidate.
What you’ve seen is we’ve got now an incredible candidates that are running all over the country.
We are going to be focusing on a forward looking agenda to counteract all the crap that’s been going on with this administration.
TAPPER: So 2028, you’re not ruling it out, fair to say?
KLOBUCHAR: No. I am focused on my job in the Senate, and I’m really focused on our great candidates that are up all across the country.
Anyone else that’s not doing that right now, I think that they better look at what Donald Trump is doing to our economy and doing to our democracy and constitution.
Watch the clip below:
Klobuchar last ran in 2020, although she ended up pulling out before Super Tuesday and endorsing Joe Biden.
Should she move forward with a run, she will join what is likely to be a crowded field of candidates.
Among those expected to run are California Governor Gavin Newsom, Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro, Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer, New Jersey Senator Cory Booker, and former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg.
