On a recent episode of Crime Stoppers from Houston’s “The Balanced Voice” podcast, McConaughey told host Rania Mankarious that running for governor is “a real consideration”.
“I am now researching again, what is my leadership role?” he said. “Because I think I have some things to learn and share, and what’s my role? What’s my category in my next chapter of life that I’m going to get into?”
Texas Gov. Greg Abbott will run for re-election next year.
In November, McConaughey was asked the same thing on “The Hugh Hewitt Show” and said, “I don’t know. I mean, it wouldn’t be me. It would be more up to the people than it would.
“Look, politics seems like a broken thing to me right now. And if politics redefines its purpose, I could be a lot more interested,” he added.
