Marco Rubio Would Defer to JD Vance in 2028

Marco Rubio supports Vice President JD Vance as the GOP’s frontrunner for the 2028 nomination, with 35% of Trump 2024 voters backing Vance in a recent poll.

  • On Friday, Secretary of State Marco Rubio privately acknowledged Vice President JD Vance as the leading contender for the GOP’s 2028 nomination and said he would back Vance if he runs.
  • President Donald Trump is constitutionally barred from a third term, prompting GOP focus on the 2028 presidential nomination as Trump has floated Vance and Rubio as potential successors.
  • A Politico poll found 35% of Trump 2024 voters picked Vance, with 65 and 38 percent of Republicans saying they'd consider or vote for him today, respectively.
  • A third source said the expectation inside the White House is JD Vance as the nominee and Marco Rubio as vice president, and Donald Trump has floated a Vance-Rubio ticket.
  • Vance and allies urged focusing on governing for the next couple of years, noting Rubio is his closest ally and no one expects him to resign Cabinet for 2028 contests.
