‘MAKE THE COUNTRY FAIR AGAIN’: Howard Stern considering running for president

Article content

Howard Stern – former America’s Got Talent judge, infamous shock jock – may attempt to add another bulletpoint to his resume: POTUS.

The SiriusXM radio host is thinking about running for president so he can right the wrongs the current and former presidents have done.

“The problem with most presidents is they have too big of an agenda,” he said.

“The only agenda I would have is to make the country fair again,” Stern added, before ranting about the conservative Supreme Court justices.

Stern first blasted Clarence Thomas, describing him as a “dormant Darth Vader,” then moved on to the “horrible” overturning of Roe v. Wade, referencing women who find out their child has birth defects, rape victims, and the questionable quality of some forms of contraception.

“The other thing is, if I do run for president, and I’m not f—— around, I’m really thinking about it — the only other thing I’m going to do is appoint five more Supreme Court justices,” Stern said.

The radio legend also said he wants to “get rid of” the Electoral College, the 538 presidential electors who come together during an election to give their official votes for president and vice president of the United States.

“I am going to do the very simple thing that’ll set the country straight: one vote, one person,” Stern explained, claiming Trump actually lost the 2016 election against Hillary Clinton who won the popular vote – but not the Electoral College.

“A guy who lost the vote won the election,” Stern scoffed. “How long can we keep electing people who lost the election?”

It wouldn’t be the first time Stern thought about a life in politics. He ran for governor of New York in 1994 but bowed out of the race after he was pressed to disclose his personal finances.

Last year, Stern said he would only consider running in 2024 if Trump was the Republican nominee.

“I’ll beat his ass,” he said at the time.

“I would just sit there at debate and play that f—— clip of him trying to fix the election, over and over again. There’s no way I’d lose.”
