Sen. Chris Van Hollen, a sharp critic of President Trump, is mulling over running for his job in 2028.
The Maryland Democrat told the “On NOTUS” podcast this week that he’s “kicking the tires” on a presidential campaign.

“If you’re asking me whether I think Democrats need to shake things up, you bet I do. I visited New Hampshire, kind of kicking the tires a little bit,” he said Wednesday. “It’s pretty clear that operating from within the confines of the halls of Congress is not a successful recipe for actually getting change. Too often, we are in a bubble.”

Mr. Van Hollen was a keynote speaker at the Cheshire County Democrats’ annual fundraiser. New Hampshire is the traditional first-in-the-nation primary state, serving as a critical testing ground.

The two-term senator said he’s pushing for “dramatic change” in Washington.

He gained national attention for trying to engineer the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a Salvadoran whose deportation to a prison in El Salvador sparked a major legal battle.

Mr. Van Hollen then ripped the Trump administration’s “stupid” decision to go to war with Iran and spoke out against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
