Abbott Not Ruling Out 2024 Presidential Bid

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott told a Dallas radio program this week that he is not ruling out a bid for the White House in 2024.

In an interview on KSKY-AM in Dallas on Thursday, host Mark Davis asked Abbott if he is considering a bid for president in 2024. Abbott responded by not ruling out such a bid, saying, “we’ll see what happens.”

"One thing that you know about me, I take one step at a time," Abbott said.

Abbott has confirmed that he intends to seek re-election as governor in 2022, after cruising to re-election in 2018 against Democrat Lupe Valdez and Libertarian Mark Tippetts. Abbott has already drawn two primary challengers in talk show host and comedian Chad Prather and Rusk City Councilman Martin Holsome.
