Howard Stern, a popular radio host has pledged to run for President if Donald Trump attempts again in 2024. He insists that he will beat his old friend.
During his radio show Tuesday morning, Stern claimed he has accepted that he may have to serve his ‘civic duty’ and run against Trump saying he knows he’ll ‘beat his a**.’ Stern asserts that he’s as well-known in America as Trump and any presidential campaign will quickly get traction.
The claims came as Stern noted the attention that his statements about Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers vaccine scandal the day before drew in.
Stern called Rodgers a “scumbag” and criticized him for lying about having been vaccinated. Stern suggested that Rodgers be fired from the NFL.
The shock jock on Tuesday suggested that Rodgers’ comments were “big news” and that Rodgers is enough popular to run for president.
