Failed VP Nom Tim Walz Confirms He Will Not Run In 2028

Democratic Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz confirmed during a podcast interview uploaded Thursday that he is not planning to make a White House bid in 2028.

Walz said during a conversation with former Democratic National Committee (DNC) chair Jaime Harrison on his podcast, “At Our Table with Jaime Harrison,” that he was not thinking about running in the 2028 White House race. Walz also stated that he is “doing all” that he can to “help build” the Democratic Party and “make sure whoever that person is wins” in 2028.

Similarly, Walz said Saturday during an interview with The South Dakota Standard that he would “do whatever it takes” to help get a Democratic presidential candidate elected in 2028, but said that he was uninterested in making his own presidential bid. Walz’s comments come after rumors have swirled that he could be a prospective Democratic candidate in the 2028 presidential race.

“I will do whatever it takes to get someone elected,” Walz told the outlet. “But I’m not interested.”

When asked if there was any way he would change his mind about a prospective White House bid, Walz told the outlet “no.”
