Potential 2028er World Cup attendee leaderboard

Published

on

Here are the likely 2028 presidential hopefuls who have attended a World Cup game so far:

  • Shapiro: 2 matches
  • Newsom: 1 match
  • Harris: 1 match
  • Rubio: 1 match

And… according to at least one Democratic strategist, that approach may not be half bad.

Matt Bennett, of the center-left think tank Third Way, told Blue Light News more prospective 2028 candidates should embrace the World Cup.

“The World Cup is fun and inspiring, with heroics, heartwarming storylines, and gritty underdogs. The US team is kicking ass. And Trump is ignoring it,” Bennett said. “Democrats should own it all – go to games, watch them in bars with fans, brag about our team, hang out with the Scots. Show the country that we’re normal, patriotic, and fun-loving.”

Former Lt. Gov. Mandela Barnes and his team are discussing dropping out of the crowded Democratic primary for Wisconsin governor, according to two people with direct knowledge of the matter.

The conversations come as Democratic officials in the state brace for damaging media reports about Barnes expected to hit in the coming hours. Barnes and his team have been on calls Thursday to discuss how to proceed, according to the people, granted anonymity to share private details.

The primary had become increasingly messy as more moderate leaning Democrats like Barnes have tried to stave off Democratic socialist Francesca Hong’s rise, worried her victory could boost presumed Republican nominee Tom Tiffany. Wisconsin Gov. Tony Evers’ endorsement of David Crowley — who reentered the race in the final stretch — further complicated the moderate coalition.

A spokesperson for Barnes’ campaign did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
