Once Friends, Howard Stern Now Wants to Face Trump for the Presidency
Considered by many to be the inventor of “shock jock” radio, Howard Stern and Donald Trump were once friends, with the real estate mogul being a frequent guest on Stern’s show in the 1990s and early 2000s.
Radio shock jock host Howard Stern said he is considering a run for president on his SiriusXM show Monday.
The controversial host of “The Howard Stern Show” said that he will have a
narrowly focused agenda, wanting to eliminate the Electoral College and expand the Supreme Court by appointing five new justices.
“The problem with most presidents is they have too big of an agenda,” Stern explained. “The only agenda I would have is to make the country fair again.”
Stern also took aim at the three Supreme Court Justices appointed by former President Trump. “It’s very hard to have a Supreme Court that’s openly lied,” he said. His solution, as many others have proposed, is to expand the court. “I’m not afraid to do it. As soon as I become president, you’re gonna get five new Supreme Court justices that are going to overturn all this bulls***”
Laying out the other major piece of his hyper-focused agenda, Stern said he would fix the voting system.
“I am going to do the very simple thing that’ll set the country straight: one vote, one person. No more Electoral College.” Stern also rhetorically asked, “How long can we keep electing people who lost the election?” referring to Trump’s victory in 2016 in which he lost the popular vote but won the Electoral College.
The radio host, who also starred in the 1997 biographical comedy “Private Parts,” said he was only interested in running against Trump, not other Republican candidates. “I know I’ll beat his ass,” Stern said of Trump.
This is not the first time that Stern has hinted that he may jump into the 2024 Presidential race to face Trump. In November 2021, Stern laid out his plan: “I would just sit there at the debate and play that f****** clip of him trying to fix the election over and over again. There is no way I’d lose,” Stern said, referring to the infamous phone call between Trump and Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger. In that call, Trump pressured Raffensperger to “find” enough votes to overturn the 2020 election.
Stern’s co-host Robin Quivers agreed at the time, saying, “If Trump decides to run again, you have to run against him. That’s my plan, that’s what is going to happen. We can’t leave it to the Democrats.”
It is not clear from the discussion how Stern plans to get on the ballot. He could run for the Democratic nomination if Biden, who has repeatedly said he will run in 2024, decides against running for reelection. Alternatively, he could attempt to primary Biden, though primarying a sitting president is rare and difficult. The last significant attempt was in 1992 when Pat Buchanan tried to primary George H. W. Bush, though he failed to secure even a single state.
Stern could also go the third party or independent route and take on both Biden and Trump at the same time. In 1994, he was nominated by the Libertarian Party in the New York gubernatorial election but dropped out after the state Supreme Court ruled that he would need to reveal his finances.
Stern and Trump were once friendly, with the then-real estate mogul appearing on “The Howard Stern Show” multiple times. That changed after the 2016 election, as their political views grew further apart after Stern said Trump
changed politically. Stern said at the time that he was a big supporter of Hillary Clinton and abortion rights.
There’s no word yet on whether President Stern would host a daily call-in show from the West Wing.
