Charlamagne Reveals Who He Wants To Run In 2028

Charlamagne Tha God revealed his choice for president in 2028 — and it’s fellow political media personality Jon Stewart.

The Breakfast Club radio host recently shared his political hopes during a sit-down with Fox News host Lara Trump, who is also the daughter-in-law of President Donald Trump. She has been hosting a Fox News show since late February. This interview is set to air this Saturday on Fox News at 9 p.m.

“I would love to see Jon Stewart run in 2028. If we’re talking about like a change agent coming from the outside that’s really going to shake things up and somebody that I feel like can speak to, you know, all people, plus we actually, he’s a celebrity who actually knows what they’re talking about,” he said.

“We’ve seen him get legislation and stuff, you know, passed before, like, we know where his heart is, he’d be somebody I’d like to see really get in the race and disrupt things in 2028. Maybe a Jon Stewart-Colbert ticket, because, you know, Colbert’s not going to have a job. He’s not working because of President Trump, so they say.”

Stewart, who returned to The Daily Show in a part-time capacity a year and a half ago, has long been admired by both fans and lawmakers for his advocacy on veterans’ health care and 9/11 first responder legislation. However, Stewart has consistently expressed zero presidential ambitions.

Earlier this week, former vice president Kamala Harris further fueled 2028 White House rumors when she announced she will not run for governor of California.

“In recent months, I have given serious thought to asking the people of California for the privilege to serve as their Governor. I love this state, its people, and its promise. It is my home. But after deep reflection, I’ve decided that I will not run for Governor in this election,” Harris said in a statement. 

The former vice president said she spent time reflecting over the past six months since losing in November after she took over the Democratic ticket when former President Biden dropped out of the race.

“I have extraordinary admiration and respect for those who dedicate their lives to public service—service to their communities and to our nation. At the same time, we must recognize that our politics, our government, and our institutions have too often failed the American people, culminating in this moment of crisis,” Harris said. “As we look ahead, we must be willing to pursue change through new methods and fresh thinking—committed to our same values and principles, but not bound by the same playbook.”
