Ossoff insists he won’t run in 2028. The presidential buzz is growing anyway

Sen. Jon Ossoff (D-GA) insists he has “zero interest” in running for president in 2028, but a growing corner of the Democratic internet is acting as though he may not get the final say.

The Georgia Democrat’s national profile has surged in recent weeks as clips of his increasingly combative attacks on President Donald Trump rack up attention online, fueling comparisons to former President Barack Obama and speculation that another relatively young senator could make a rapid leap from Capitol Hill to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.
