The Terminator star Arnold Schwarzenegger, who was born and raised in Austria, believes he “absolutely” would win the 2024 election if he was eligible to run.
The Republican and former California governor appeared on ‘Who’s Talking to Chris Wallace on Max and CNN’, where he confirmed he’d throw his hat in the ring if it was an option.
Wallace said the Constitution says that the President has to be a natural-born U.S. citizen and later went on asking Schwarzenegger, if not for that, would he have run for president.
“Well, yes, of course. I mean, I think the field was wide open in 2016. And I think the field is open right now,” the 75-year-old replied.
“I mean, think about it right now. I mean, who is there that is really a person that can bring everyone together? Who is there today that people say OK, he’s not too old or he’s not too this or too that and all this stuff, because it’s now a question about who do you vote against than who do you vote for.”
“You’re saying you would run for president in 2024?” Wallace followed up.
“Absolutely,” Schwarzenegger confirmed.
“It’s a no-brainer. I see so clearly how I could win that election.”
The Fubar star likened it to when he ran for governor in 2003 and he won a recall election and ultimately served until 2011.
Schwarzenegger went on to say he’s “not worried” that Donald Trump will win next year.
