Sen. Chris Van Hollen Says He Is ‘Kicking the Tires’ on a Potential 2028 Presidential Bid
Van Hollen says Democrats need a clear alternative to the status quo and says he is weighing a campaign as several other Democrats consider 2028 runs.
- On Sunday, Sen. Chris Van Hollen confirmed he is "kicking the tires" on a potential 2028 presidential bid, citing recent visits to early-voting states including New Hampshire and Iowa.
- Van Hollen argued the Democratic Party must move beyond the pre-Trump status quo, stating "Democrats need to be very clear, not just what we're against, but what we're for."
- Pressed on whether he would seek the Senate Majority Leader position, the longtime member of Congress dismissed the prospect, saying "my focus is not on Majority Leader. It's on what Democrats stand for going into 2028."
- Regarding the role of Democratic Socialists, Van Hollen said they have a place in debate but rejected platform points like abolishing the Senate or subordinating the Supreme Court to Congress.
- A wide field of potential 2028 candidates is emerging, with Former Vice President Kamala Harris, Gov. Andy Beshear, and Sen. Cory Booker also signaling interest in a presidential run.
