While many have speculated about a potential role for U.S. Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-Auburn) in a second Donald Trump administration, a spokeswoman said on Wednesday that the former Auburn football coach is looking forward to remaining in the Senate to champion President-elect Trump’s agenda.
Tuberville had previously been connected in media reports with various cabinet positions in the Trump administration or even a possible gubernatorial bid in 2026.
“Last night was a clear mandate that Americans are 100% behind President Trump. Sen. Tuberville was the first U.S. Senator to endorse President Trump and he looks forward to championing President Trump’s agenda in the Senate. Sen. Tuberville will help President Trump secure the border, strengthen the military, protect our farmers and veterans, and restore Title IX protections for women and girls everywhere. Sen. Tuberville has also spoken with President Trump several times about the importance of moving Space Command back to its rightful home in Huntsville,” Mallory Blount Jaspers, Tuberville’s communications director, told 1819 News on Wednesday.
