During an appearance on this week’s broadcast of “CBS Sunday Morning,” Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) put the odds of him running for president at 50% in 2028.
The Kentucky U.S. Senator ran as a candidate for the Republican presidential nomination in 2016.
CBS correspondent Robert Costa said, “There was recently a headline in the Washington Examiner, Rand Paul sounds like he’s running for president.”
Paul said, “Yeah, I don’t know yet. So, maybe they know something I don’t know. We’re thinking about it and I would say 50-50. We’ll make a decision after the election, but I’m not going to do it just to do it. It would be one, because we need to have a free market wing, we need to have a free trade wing in the party who’s not eager for war and tries to, at least, explore diplomacy as an option to war.”
