Former Rep. Allen West told WMAL that he wouldn’t rule out a future primary challenge to Sen. Marco Rubio.
“That’s a pretty heavy lift, because you’re talking about running against a sitting senator, and then, of course, that creates that schism that the other side would love to see happen,” said West. “We’ll see what happens down the pike, God will set my feet down the right path.”
West was pressed further by WMAL’s Larry O’Connor, who asked him directly if he would rule out a challenge against Rubio.
“Chirping… chirping… chirping…,” replied West with a chuckle, before elaborating with a more direct response.
“If I see people that are not taking our country down the right path, if I see people that are not standing up for the right type of principles, and putting their own party politics before what is best for the United States of America,” West indicated he might make a run.
