In an interview with Fox News' Lara Trump, Charlamagne said he would "love" to see Stewart run, reports the Hill. "If we're talking about like a change agent coming from the outside that's really going to shake things up and somebody that I feel like can speak to, you know, all people," then Stewart is the person, he said. "We've seen him get legislation and stuff passed before—like, we know where his heart is." The suggestion comes on the heels of a new round of speculation about Vice President Kamala Harris's political future. Harris announced she would not run for California governor, fueling talk about a possible presidential bid in 2028. But Charlamagne said on his own show, the Breakfast Club, that he's skeptical of her chances, per USA Today. Stewart hasn't commented on the suggestion.
