Kim Kardashian may soon trade her designer heels for campaign boots if her powerhouse mom Kris Jenner gets her way. According to insiders who spoke to The National Enquirer, the beauty mogul is now being quietly prepped for a major leap from fashion to federal office — and the ultimate goal may be the White House.
Kardashian, 44, has reportedly grown more vocal in private political circles and recently finished a legal studies program. She has used her celebrity platform to speak out on issues like criminal justice reform and immigration policy. But sources close to her say this may just be the beginning of something far more ambitious.
Kris Jenner wants Kim in the White House
Behind closed doors, sources say Jenner is the one fueling this political push. A well-placed insider said Kris has always thought bigger than anyone and now believes a presidency isn’t out of reach. The source added that Kris is constantly reminding Kim that if Donald Trump could make the jump from reality TV to the Oval Office, then she certainly could too.
Kardashian has already built a bipartisan network of legal advocates, policy insiders and media allies. According to the insider, she is mixing with people doing big things and it’s sparking a serious interest in politics.
She’s intrigued by the idea of running for some sort of office where her name recognition could actually help pass laws, not just sell products, the source revealed.
Kardashian’s political goals already underway
Kardashian has visited the White House multiple times over the past few years to advocate for criminal justice reforms. She famously helped secure the release of non-violent offenders and has used her platform to highlight cases involving unfair sentencing.
Though she has not announced any official plans, insiders say she’s already laying the groundwork. The same source claimed Kardashian has privately discussed running for local or state office before making any national leap. She wants to earn credibility and learn how politics actually work before diving in headfirst.
However, Jenner reportedly wants to fast-track the plan. She’s said to be pushing her daughter to think long-term and see herself as a future president — not just a celebrity advocate.
Kardashian’s recent criticism of U.S. immigration policies also hints at her shifting priorities. In one post to her 356 million followers, she condemned ICE’s treatment of immigrants, saying we have to speak up when hardworking families are torn apart in inhumane ways.
That type of language, according to one Beltway strategist, is exactly how political campaigns begin.
