Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, tells Newsmax he's "considering" another run for the White House in 2024, but he'd be happy seeking another term representing Texas in the U.S. Senate as well.
Appearing Thursday on "The Chris Salcedo Show," Cruz told guest host Tom Basile he was "just considering it, just thinking about it," when asked about his 2024 plans.
Former President Donald Trump has yet to announce whether he will seek reelection after his 2020 loss to Democrat Joe Biden. A move by Trump to reclaim the Oval Office would certainly make the still popular former commander-in-chief the strong front-runner and force most serious candidates such as Cruz to sit out another four years.
But Cruz said his 2016 bid for the GOP presidential nomination, in which he was the last candidate standing against Trump, was "the most fun I've ever had in my life."
"We came incredibly close," he said. "Had an incredible grassroots army of 326,000 volunteers nationwide. And so whether it is in the Senate, or whether it is in a presidential campaign, I am committed to fighting to defend free enterprise, to defend freedom and defend the Constitution and Bill of Rights."

It’ll be a cold day in Houston before I vote for him.
...and come to think of it, he’ll be in Mexico again, should that be the case.
No...just no.
NO! Do not split the vote.
Illinois primary 2015....Chicago disturbances when ANTIFA types rioted over Trumps win
Ted blamed Trump supporters
He jumped the shark then and lost his substantial support here
And I say that as someone. Who made Ted bumper stickers in 2013 but I moved to Trump early when it became apparent he would fight
Is @tedcruz considering a 2024 presidential run? The Senator tells Newsmax: "I'm certainly looking at it... 2016 was the most fun I've ever had in my life. We came incredibly close." @Tom_Basile pic.twitter.com/pkvMJCOpki— Newsmax (@newsmax) July 1, 2021
Did trump offer him the job?
If he doesn't, he becomes the biggest, most required recommendation to any other candidate, which most probably will be DeSantis.
There is so much time between now and then that it's best to relax and just watch events unfold.
Born in Canada to a foreign Father and American mother?
Hmmmm, I’ll stick with the premise of the communication between George Washington and John Jay.
No thanks.....
Do you think that Trump owns property in any other state?
How tough is it to change residence?
Is this nation going to make to ‘22 let alone ‘24?
Lyin’ Ted is going to try again? No thanks.
Flyin’ Ted
NTSA!
Ted is going to loose his Senate Seat if he doesn’t start concentrating on TX.
However, I wouldn't be surprised to see it work out this way: DeSantis/Trump, Jr., with Trump, Sr. organizing and running the public rallies. He's a master at that.
Then, maybe place Trump, Sr. over the RNC?
TRUST CRUZ /s
HA! You beat me to it. 😆
