VP JD Vance Discusses Potential 2028 Vance-Rubio GOP Ticket

Vice President JD Vance has addressed speculation about a potential Republican presidential ticket in 2028 alongside Secretary of State Marco Rubio, emphasizing their strong working relationship and friendship. Vance noted that the idea was first mentioned by President Donald Trump during a lunch and that any discussion about a joint run feels premature as the current administration is still early in its term. He stressed his focus remains on addressing key issues such as making life more affordable for Americans, rather than on future political ambitions. Vance dismissed concerns about tension between him and Rubio over leadership roles on a potential ticket, calling Rubio his "best friend in the administration." Both Vance and Rubio are viewed as leading contenders for the 2028 Republican nomination, with President Trump endorsing their potential partnership as "unstoppable." Vance reiterated his commitment to doing a good job as vice president, suggesting that focusing on current responsibilities is paramount before considering future campaigns.
