A Republican senator who has become a thorn in the side of President Donald Trump and his administration is considering a 2028 presidential bid, which would likely pit him against the presumed heir apparent, Vice President JD Vance.
“We’ll decide after 2026,” Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky said in a weekend interview, adding that “without question” trust in the Trump administration is broken.
In 2016, Paul ran for the Republican presidential nomination but withdrew after finishing a distant fifth in Iowa’s GOP caucuses. Later that year, he was re-elected to the Senate and secured another term in 2022.
