Republicans start making moves to challenge JD Vance for 2028 nomination
A Bowling Green State University/YouGov poll gave Vance 44% support, while several GOP senators and Rep. Thomas Massie prepared possible bids.
- Vice President Vance leads 2028 Republican nomination polling with 44 percent, but Sens Ted Cruz , John Kennedy , Rick Scott and Rep Thomas Massie are preparing campaigns, the Washington Post reported.
- Sen Paul and Cruz question whether the party should remain 'small-government' or a 'nanny-state,' while some lawmakers remain skeptical of Vance's ties to former Fox News host Tucker Carlson.
- Data shows Vance's 44 percent lead doubles that of Secretary State Marco Rubio, while the Vice President courts Jewish Republicans through the Republican Jewish Coalition summit and a Naval Observatory Shabbat dinner.
- November's midterm elections will test President Donald Trump's standing and, by extension, Vance's viability as other Republicans weigh 2028 campaigns.
- Massie, who lost his House primary, cautioned that early polling is unreliable, citing how Gov Ron DeSantis of Florida faded before the 2024 race despite post-midterm strength.
