Thomas Massie Files FEC Paperwork for 2028 House Run or Something Else Days After Crushing Primary Defeat

Fresh off last week’s humiliating double-digit primary drubbing at the hands of President Trump’s handpicked Navy SEAL warrior Ed Gallrein, disgraced Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) announced Monday that he had filed paperwork with the FEC for a 2028 run for the House — or something else entirely.
Massie previously made a very clear declaration about his political future. Thomas Massie said: “If I lose on May 19th, I am not doing any more government ever.”
So naturally, conservatives are asking the obvious question: If that was true, why is Massie now filing paperwork to run for federal office in 2028?

If that is the case, why is he filing to run for Federal Office in 2028?

Massie says the filing simply keeps his political operation alive while he decides what comes next, and has not committed to a specific office yet, only that the FEC filing allows continued fundraising and political activity
“I filed with FEC for the 2028 House race. This allows me to raise funds to continue my political operations supporting my position as a current office holder and as a potential candidate for federal office. I haven’t made a final decision about which office to seek, if I run,” Massie wrote.

Trump-backed Ed Gallrein, a fifth-generation farmer and former Navy SEAL, demolished the longtime incumbent by more than 10 points in Tuesday’s primary. President Trump himself torched Massie as a “Third Rate Congressman,” a “Weak and Pathetic RINO,” and the “Worst Congressman in the History of our Country” before endorsing Gallrein to finish the job.
