With failed presidential candidate Kamala Harris being floated as the Democrat forerunner in the 2026 California governor race, a prominent Trump ally is addressing the possibility of running against her.

Richard ‘Ric’ Grenell, President Trump’s Envoy for Special Missions, says he may be up for the job.

Speaking to reporters at the Munich Security Conference, he said that he “wouldn’t say no” to a bid for California Governor, if Kamala Harris is his competition.

“If Kamala Harris runs for governor, I believe that she has such baggage and hundreds of millions of dollars in educating the voters of how terrible she is, that it’s a new day in California, and that the Republican actually has a shot,” he added.

From Breitbart:

Richard Grenell, President Donald Trump’s Envoy for Special Missions, said he would consider a run for governor of California if former Vice President Kamala Harris also ran, adding that he “wouldn’t say no.”

Grenell explained to reporters at the Munich Security Conference in Germany that Harris “has such baggage and hundreds of millions of dollars in educating the voters” on how terrible she is, that the Republican candidate for governor in California would have a chance, according to the New York Post.

“If Kamala Harris runs for governor, I believe that she has such baggage and hundreds of millions of dollars in educating the voters of how terrible she is, that it’s a new day in California, and that the Republican actually has a shot,” Grenell explained.

Fox News added:

One of President Donald Trump’s top aides is floating a potential bid for California governor if former Vice President Kamala Harris also runs.

Richard Grenell, a longtime Trump loyalist who is serving as U.S. envoy for special missions in the president’s second administration, ended a gaggle with reporters at the Munich Security Conference in Germany on Friday by teasing, “I’ll make a little news.”

Grenell then pointed to the 2026 race to succeed term-limited Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom of California.

“If Kamala Harris runs for governor, I believe that she has such baggage and hundreds of millions of dollars in educating the voters of how terrible she is, that it’s a new day in California and that the Republican actually has a shot,” Grenell said.

There has been plenty of speculation since Harris’ defeat last November, regarding her next political move, with the two potential options likely being launching a 2026 gubernatorial run in her home state of California or seeking the presidency again in 2028.

What do you think?

Would you back Ric Grenell as California governor?

Some folks seem pretty happy about the prospect:
