RuPaul has declared her candidacy for the 2028 U.S. presidential election, expressing her desire to replace Donald Trump. Speaking from the set of Drag Race, she emphasizes the need for a leader with charisma, uniqueness, nerve, and talent, specifically criticizing Trump's record on LGBTQ+ issues. RuPaul's announcement comes at a time when queer and trans rights are increasingly under threat. Informed by her conversations while filming a show, she is committed to advocating for healthcare, climate change, and equality throughout her campaign.
I stand before you in these sickening six-inch heels, not as just the queen of drag, not just as your favourite reality TV star, but as a candidate for President of the United States in 2028.
That orange Cheeto has got to sashay away, henny. America has got a lot to work on—healthcare, climate change, equality.
