Listen, I'm going to make some news for you this morning, Jake Tapper. Come 2028, I will be running for high office. High office meeting president? Listen, I am very much focused on the midterms. If we don't get 2026 right, seriously, we're going to be in trouble. 2028 is theoretical. If we don't get 2026 right, we've got to put some guard on this president who is literally looting our country and selling its parts. We've seen that his enablers in Congress, his Republican Congresspeople are not willing to hold him accountable. And so I am sharply focused on that, which is why I'm moving all across this state trying to turn people out.
