On May 16, 2019 De La Fuente officially declared that he is seeking the Republican nomination for president in the 2020 United States presidential election.[2]

In January 2017, De La Fuente stated in a court filing that he planned to again seek the Democratic Party nomination in the 2020 presidential election.[3] He has filed to run as a Republican instead challenging incumbent President Donald Trump for the nomination.[4]

As of September 30, 2019, he had raised $6,735 from outside sources and had loaned his own campaign $10.18 million.[5][6]

During the run-up to the primaries, Libertarian Party chairman Nicholas Sarwark said that De La Fuente run for his party's nomination,[7][8] an option which De La Fuente is thinking about.[9]
