Interestingly, after visiting Washington State, Arizona and Nevada to campaign in support of 2022 republican senate candidates, Senator Tom Cotton – a previous Sea Island conference attendee – has announced a decision not to run for higher office in 2024.
Is it possible Senator Cotton’s visits gave him more exposure him to the MAGA base and provided additional insight into what & who voters support?
Arkansas – U.S. Sen. Tom Cotton, who has been considering a run for president in 2024, will not seek higher office in the next election cycle, according to reports on Sunday.
A source close to the senator confirmed to the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette on Sunday that the Dardanelle Republican will not run for president in 2024. Politico first broke the story.
A leading factor behind Cotton’s decision was his two sons, who are 5 and 7. Both were born after Cotton joined the Senate in January 2015. Cotton served in the House of Representatives for one term before defeating U.S. Sen. Mark Pryor, D-Ark., in the 2014 election.
Cotton will not be up for reelection to the Senate until November 2026. (read more)
Cotton has the personality of over-cooked broccoli.
My disapproval of cotton is based on his apparent acceptance of vote fraud in milwaukee, detroit, philly, atlanta, st. Louis, phoenix, new york, chicago, and other dem cities. He “trusts” the states…cotton refused to vote to check into 2020 vote fraud as part of the Electoral count, and sees no congressional Constitutional responsibility in robotically “counting” fraudulent votes without any investigation.
Thank you, nice to know
Cotton is as all rinos, a demonicrat in repubican robes. I can call myself the Pope, that doesn’t make me the Pope. Same thing here.
He’s getting a lot of issues – I have to see his full reaction to that. But voter integrity in the stone 2020 election is a top-five issue for me as well
It took me some time to realize that he is not MAGA and does not support Trump. By now I think Trump and we know every RINO, who they are. ✅
Personality is not important; character IS.
Not sure if Cotton has either.
You need both and then some if you want to win. (Character is most important)
And a longer pence neck than Adam shifty Schiff.
Ooohhh! Lol. Pence reminds me of Howdy Doody. Very wooden. This guy had all the charm of a pet rock.
Aka cardboard.😉
LOL! 😉
that’s unfair. To broccoli.
I remember when Cotton was pushing CCP Covid fear porn
“5 million mobile phones went offline around Wuhan”
complete propaganda
the Congress man from Walmart and the CCP
I can see him in the Trump Cabinet… Sec Fed. Clean up the military. Get them back to the business of war determent through overwhelming capability.
Hell no to Cotton in the cabinet. He would be yet another saboteur.
He’s a good senator. He should stay there.
IMO, he has done nothing but talk, talk, talk, period.
Truth is that’s all THEY can do. Said if we vote Republicans in they’ll end Obamacare. We did…they didn’t.
Who?
I am announcing that I too will not be seeking the presidency in 2024. … these people and their inflated egos.
I disagree. I have no doubt he was being prodded to run. By publically announcing he has no plans to run he ends the prodding.
Many will continue to be called upon to accept or deny.
But you can bet the true secret plan like Pence/Ryan 2016 which most of us had no clue of until after is happening now
Pence Ryan? A wooden dummy and a lyin Ratyn. Perfect demonicrat ticket.
Witch McTurtle. Throwing out everything including the kitchen sink, aka Tom Cotton.
Trump is their nightmare on Elm Street.
Chicago, I would totally vote for you. I’m kinda your neighbor…born and raised in Wheaton.
Thank God. Bill Kristol’ son is his Chief of Staff. He’s a typical Neo-con with dodgy views on Illegal immigration and globalism. He wanted to write Op-eds for the NYT’s and was upset when they wouldn’t run one. Not MAGA. Just a less hispanic Ted Cruz.
Their answer to illegal invaders is to provide the chamber of commerce members more visas.
Just like Mike H-1B Lee.
That is telling that Kristol’s son is his chief of staff. I knew he was a war monger but didn’t know the extent.
As I say the incest runs deep w/the Swamp. There is ALWAYS a connection and tie.
Twitter Censorship: EU Warns Elon Musk Not to Restore Free Speech Protections After Calls from Clinton and Other Democratic Leaders

So is this showing us who is yanking the EU’s strings?
It’s really sad.
The Internet was designed to be the Wild West. To see the totalitarianism rise so blatantly in the West is incredible.
Now, I have no desire to use Twitter, but I may just have to start sending Musk eight bucks a month to support him.

What a coincidence! I’ve decided not to run in 2024 too!
Just look at that neck. Is this Pencil Neck #2? He was really afraid that Trump would have ridiculed him with a nickname he would never get rid of.
It would be merciless. Giraffe, Eiffel, Stretch…. It would turn Cotton into a stealth senate enemy.
Forgotten Cotton…
Cotton is one of the least institutionally captured members of the Senate. But he is still captured by it.
2015 Graduate of Klaauus School 🤡 Y G L 🤡 Picture and short bio removed from site.
Perhaps he was, ahem, discouraged from running.
“Mr. Smith” he ain’t!
Gee. Uh. I guess you’re soooo important in our nation, you uh, just announced this?
Hey Treepers: I won’t seek the presidency in 2024.
If you think my announcement is irrelevant, you would be coooorrrect!
Jeesh
I’d vote for any Treeper, instead of any congresscritter who is not appalled by, and accepts vote fraud (almost ll of them).
Vote fraud at any level is dangerous and corrupt. Heinous vote fraud for federal office, and especially vote fraud which puts the fraudsters in charge of who is “elected” President, is the most dangerous threat to the United States.
So, I’m sorry you are not running (unlike Cotton), so I could vote for you as a Treeper
Bakatchuh Treeper! ✝️
Here, here! 😉 Treepers, one–Treepers, ALL!!!
Cotton appears to have had his “come-to-Jesus” moment.
Cotton was on Larry Kudlow’s show last Fri, 2 Nov 2022. Cotton said most loud and clear at the end of the spot with Mr Kudlow that he was indeed “America First.”
Listen from 6:30 to 7:00 of this clip. My jaw hit the floor when i heard it. https://www.cotton.senate.gov/news/videos/watch/november-2-2022-cotton-joins-larry-kudlow
Do i think Cotton means it? Nope
But it was nice to hear nevertheless.
Would wager Cotton was just answering a question on whether he would run in 2024. After all, McConnell will be done in another 6? or less years (McConnell is looking to set the record on longest GOP-Senate leader), then McConnell is out, Cotton is in, and Cotton’s power will be immeasurable.
He probably knows he can’t beat Trump.
Let some other fool be the base splitter.
I hope DeSantis can see through em and stay put.
I’m pretty sure that Tom Cotton was on the list of WEF Young Leaders graduates that Dr. Robert Malone published.
He is a conservative of the Ron DeSantis, Kevin McCarthy variety and business-as-usual filling their Uniparty pockets is their only allegiance.
The Picture above of his collegiality with Rinos and Dimms is bad enough.
But just two words from his resume are enough for me to question every good point in his record.
“Harvard Law.”
Just knowing he has been fully indoctrinated by that institution is enough for me to have no trust in him going forward.
Only Yale is worse.
He said he wasn’t going to run for president in 2024. Did he say anything about refusing to be on the ticket in 2024 as the candidate for vice president? All he’s doing is publicly saying he won’t step on DeSantis’ toes. What’s said in private will remain private, for now.
…as if…
Tom Cotton is planning his get away once the hammer falls. He will be come Tom in high…. cotton.
Sorry Tom but ever since following the 2020 steal when you announced it was time to move on, you’ve been on my personal shite list. Not really interested in someone that can so cavalierly want to distance themselves from the greatest crime in American history.
IOW GFY.
Well at least he is politically astute or at least not totally deaf. DeSantis, on the other hand, is going to end his promising potential run for President against Trump and MAGA. Say what you will but Megan Kelly is 100% correct. DeSantis is finished if he primaries Trump.
How funny, I also decided today that I would not seek the 2024 Presidential nomination.
No offense, but who is Tom Cotton? Is he like Jeb Bush or Ted Cruz?
Yes.
LOL! 😉
Did McCarthy’s landlord/roommate, Frank Putz, do a “focus group’ and Tom Cotton didn’t make the top splitter cut? 🤣
He has the dead pan eyes. He has had his moments, but I don’t like him, don’t trust him, and he needs to get the boot. He has “served” as a Veteran and a Senator, that is enough.
Never was a big fan of damp Cotton. He showed his true colors in 2020 and early 2021. He is a phony and loves Neverending wars.
I am an Arkansan who really looked forward to having Cotton as one of our senators. To say he, and our other Senator Boozman are disappointments, is putting it mildly. Definitely examples of going to DC and falling under the influence of the GOPe, DS, maybe all. IMO, BOTH are no better than empty suits, and I did NOT early vote for Boozman, but for the independent. He will win, no doubt, but fired a shot across his bow anyway. I will not vote for Cotton again, and he is heeding good advice to NOT run again.
From Arkansas as well. Could Not hold my nose and vote for Boozeman🤮
Left it blank. DH voted for libertarian. Will Not vote for Cotton. They both kept my President Trump from recess appointments. Snakes in the grass. And we hosted Cotton in our home when he ran first time 🤮
Poll smoking RINO.
I like Tom Cotton & Ron DeSantis…. Both are sharp solid conservatives …..BUT I will vote for Trump in the primary 100%!!
If DeSantis runs against Trump for the nomination in 2024 – I think it will damage DeSantis substantially….. Trump helped get him elected in Florida , did a great job as President, and Trump and is ready to roll for 2024
tom cotton’s single largest campaign donor?
club for growth.
other facts: 3/4 or all money raised to launch tom cotton’s political career were from OUT OF STATE.
I don’t necessarily have a axe to grind with Tom Cotton. For those reading this, understand the point being made here:
the people of the state of arkansas ARE NOT FUNDING their representative. OTHERS ARE!
this has becomes such a huge problem for such a very long time, “we” have just accepted this is the way that politics works.
that is definitely open for debate!
God Bless America
I’m still sad that Nunes is not in the powerful position he was in, and don’t quite see that his current Truth Social position is better for the country. But I trust PDJT
Translation: Senator Cotton wants to continue getting elected as a Senator……
Cotton was in the 2015 class of WEF Young Global Leaders. Same class as Ivanka. Damaged goods.
He found out he was a Rino
Sounded good but his actions were speaking so loudly you couldn’t hear his words.
A run for the Presidency?????? Really?????
