Glenn Beck Reveals That He Was Planning To Retire From Radio And Run For Office, But Not Anymore

During his appearance(link is external) on Dana Loesch's program last night, Glenn Beck revealed that his experience campaigning for God's chosen candidate(link is external), Ted Cruz, during the Republican primaries and his betrayal(link is external) when Cruz endorsed Trump has dissuaded him from his plans to run for office.

Beck said that he will never again endorse a candidate. He also revealed that he told his wife last year that he was thinking of retiring from radio and television and running for office in a future election.

"I want to pray on it," Beck said(link is external) he told his wife, "because maybe in 2020, 2024, maybe I'll run for something ... Not necessarily for president, I don't know, but I want to prepare myself to be worthy enough to run."

But after what he has seen, Beck said that he wants nothing to do with politics because "it's an absolute cesspool."
