Trump promotes Marco Rubio and JD Vance as potential successors in 2028

President Donald Trump’s idea of ​​the week’s tip-foot idea that he might try to win a third term has opened the door to a new conspiracy: Who does he think is his successor?

Trump breathed almost the same breath in an interview with NBC News' "with the press".

"Look at Marco, look at JD Vance, who's great." Trump replied when Kristen Welker asked him what convinced him that his Maga movement would move on after he left the office. "Look-I can list 10, 15, 20 people, and now sit here."

Given that Trump is the first time he has publicly identified him as a favorable prospect, he fully mentions Rubio's attack on a senior White House aide. And, while not surprising to anyone who realizes Rubio’s long-standing White House ambitions, this development is quickly infused with elements of competition and competition that Trump has long raised among those who work for him.

Both Rubio and Vance told NBC News people that expectations of such conflict were too early. They are ideology allies and have become good friends.

“They have a very good personal and professional relationship, so if they’re both running, I’ll undoubtedly have (the conversation) in advance.” One person familiar with their relationship said that, like the others interviewed in this article, he was anonymously provided candid insights on politically sensitive topics.

Rubio talked to NBC News on the track, who realized Vance's higher rank in succession line and polls, thus strengthening his higher status among Republican voters, believes Vance's first rejection of the Republican nomination in 2028.

There was no disease among Vance's allies. One close to Vance stressed that the two remained very close and did not see Vance and Rubio fighting against each other in 2028 in 2028.

But there is no doubt that Rubio is rising in the Trump world. His rise was interrupted last week when Trump appointed him as interim national security adviser. Rubio is the first person to have both roles since Henry Kissinger in the mid-1970s.

Despite a long-standing overwhelming sentiment within that Vance will be the first to continue Trump’s political legacy, in Trump’s estimates, even some White House advisers are starting to see him and Rubio in an equal playing field.

"President Trump thinks they are both loyal and very talented, and I think that's fair," said a senior Trump adviser.

The expanded portfolio shows that Rubio has long suggested that four of his sources are building a big foothold that can position him as the obvious heir to Trump – if Vance stumbles over the next three years.

"You still have to give Vance an edge because he is the current vice president," Rubio Ally said of the hypothetical 2028 showdown. "But everyone on Rubio track is doing very well with things.

"He's a guy who can say magazines but can also collect the confidence of your traditional Republicans," the man added.

Another long-time Rubio ally allowed “Vance is this guy now, but as we can see, it’s not forever.”

"There's a lot of time," the man added. "It's important to remember that it's too early, but Rubio is wearing many hats right now. It's not wrong."

Meanwhile, the magazine cape shows subtle signs of friendly competition. Just days before "Meet the Press" yelled, Rubio sat next to Trump at an hour's cabinet meeting, wearing a matching blue suit and red tie. Rubio said he had discovered that a State Department office had established a file on others sitting on the table and identified people "as a supplier of false information," which he said would be handed over soon.

"Is it me or Elon?" Vance interrupted Trump adviser Elon Musk and smiled with his "deep" hateful flexibility.

Trump’s indulgence in his only 100-day continuous conversation in the second administration was his indulgence in the scene, in which case he would bypass the third term of the constitutional term. The latter had a frozen impact on the Republican 2028 stadium, and no potential candidate dared to lead him.

But Trump withdrew from the third session in a "Meet the Media" interview, which shows that he is happy to enter the history book "eight years of president."

"So many people want me to do this. I have never asked so strongly," Trump said. "But as far as I know, this is something you don't allow it."

Assuming Trump hasn't tried to run again, Rubio is a number, early polls account for stocks in the 2028 Republican junior field suggest Vance has a wide majority. A recent survey by economist/YouGov found that 43% of Republican and Republican-leaning independents responded to Vance as their "ideal" Republican nominee, followed by Donald Trump Jr., Donald Trump Jr.

Critics have been trying for years to balance Rubio of the 2016 campaign with Rubio of the Ables campaign because he is known for his openness to immigration reform - they now believe Rubio now believes accepting the Maga doctrine. But those closest people say that any so-called transformation is not overnight and he was elected Secretary of State.

A long-time Republican agent who previously supported Rubio said: “One thing he had to Trump outweighed any other qualities.

In the years leading up to Trump's second presidential bid, Rubio favored a party-prone right-wing academy, attending the National Conservative Conference at the time Vance and Senator Josh Hawley (R-Mo).

"I think my intuition has always been where they are now," Rubio told NBC News in an interview in 2021. "Your public policy will respond to it as you face new facts, new reality, and changes in the world."

Vance and Rubio became friends while serving in the Senate. They see each other as converting the Trump movement, and ideological peers on the issue that Trump has redirected Republicans (such as trade). A person close to Rubio said he and Vance were close and “swimming very much in the same policy circle.”

The key to Rubio’s uplift in Trump’s inner circle is how much face-to-face time he spent at the White House and around his Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida. Four senior administration officials told NBC News that Rubio spent as much time as possible to approach Trump at the White House, and those close to him said he had become a regular at Mar-a-Lago, where Trump spent most weekends.

Last year, Vance and Rubio were rivals in Trump’s campaign partner search, with the snatch and mutual understanding between their teams, i.e., both of which were more in line with Trumpism than Trumpism, then North Dakota Governor Doug Burgum, a finalist for another job.

Their friendship has intensified in the Trump administration. Everyone strives to develop and maintain a relationship with the taster on the far right. For example, Vance and Rubio are both guests of the first dance party held by Turning Point, a group led by influential extreme activist Charlie Kirk.

The vice president may provide Vance with more built-in pedal stones to the Oval Office. Like Rubio, he has been able to travel the world and get a type of experience that can enhance the White House bid.

Vance faces the same Rubio when she is involved in the moonlight in politics and campaigns as the restrictions faced by diplomats. His hand has been seen in Ohio's governor's race, a major mid-term game next year that could boost Trump Allied Vivek Ramaswamy. With Trump’s blessing, Vance serves as finance chair of the Republican National Committee, a position that will connect him to some of the party’s top donors from now until 2028.

Although Trump appears to have Vance and Rubio take the same 2028 plane in an interview with the "Media Conference" and stop Vance as the most popular Vance, he said the nomination could be Vance's loss.

"Marco is great. A lot of people are great," Trump said. "I saw a huge solidarity, too. But of course, you would say that someone is the vice president and if that person is outstanding, I think that person will have an advantage."
