US EditionTed Cruz Weighs Another Presidential Run: Washington Post
Sen. Ted Cruz considers a 2028 presidential run amid GOP disputes, emphasizing hawkish, pro-Israel stances and clashing with Tucker Carlson and VP JD Vance.
- On Monday, The Washington Post reported Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, is considering a 2028 presidential run and privately signaling growing encouragement from allies.
- Facing intra-party hostility, Ted Cruz lost the 2016 Republican primary to Donald Trump and insiders say he would face a faction of the party that "hate" him and JD Vance as a rival.
- Cruz positions himself as a hawkish GOP voice while confronting Tucker Carlson, accusing him of spreading 'poison,' which Carlson rejects, after a heated June interview.
- A source close to Trump criticized Cruz, saying 'The roadblocks that Ted is putting up in front of the president's nominee for NASA administrator... only serve as a desperate attempt to relaunch a political career as a protest candidate,' while Rubio recently said he would not run in 2028 if Vance enters and pledged early support.
- Many political observers remain skeptical that another Cruz run would gain traction, but Cruz retains strong name recognition, activists and donors, and has expanded through speeches and media platforms last month.
