Rubio says he has ‘no plans at this time’ to run for president

  • Secretary of State Marco Rubio said he has "no plans" to run for president in 2028, according to NBC, stating he is dedicating himself "100%" to his current work.
  • President Donald Trump has repeatedly identified both Rubio and Vice President Vance as potential successors to his MAGA movement, even suggesting a "dream ticket" pairing the two.
  • A former senator from Florida, Rubio previously ran for the Republican nomination in 2016 and has reportedly delivered his 2028 decision privately as well.
  • Rubio's decision could strengthen the position of Vice President Vance, who is expected to consider a presidential campaign after the 2026 midterm elections.
  • The Republican field for 2028 remains highly unsettled, with Trump constitutionally barred from seeking a third term and the party's direction depending on upcoming midterm results.
