Trump official considering running for California governor if Kamala Harris enters race [View all]

Richard Grenell, a Trump administration official, said Friday that he would consider entering the 2026 California governor race if former Vice President and Democratic Presidential candidate Kamala Harris joins the growing list of candidates.

“If Kamala Harris runs for governor, I believe that she has such baggage and hundreds of millions of dollars in educating the voters of how terrible she is, that it’s a new day in California, and that the Republican actually has a shot,” Grenell said, according to Politico. “And I wouldn’t say no.”

Grenell, a longtime Trump loyalist who serves as the special presidential envoy for special missions, joined the President in Los Angeles to survey the wildfire damage, traveled to Venezuela for a meeting with President Nicolás Maduro that led to the release of six hostages and was named the Kennedy Center’s interim executive director after Trump was elected to be the center’s new chair, according to the publication.

He previously served as ambassador to Germany and as Acting Director of National Intelligence until stepping down after serving a few months in each position during Trump’s first term.
