Polls show JD Vance is far ahead of Marco Rubio in a hypothetical race for the 2028 Republican presidential nomination

Donald Trump is reportedly giving increasingly high marks to Vice President JD Vance, strengthening Vance’s chances of securing the Republican Party’s presidential nomination in 2028.

Vance has been in the spotlight throughout the year, promoting a new memoir about his faith, appearing frequently on TV and negotiating an end to the Iran war — all of which has reportedly caught Trump’s eye.

The president, who is said to have openly quizzed friends and associates about whether Vance or Secretary of State Marco Rubio should succeed him in office, has shifted his tone, insiders told Axios.

    Not sure who is worse. Rubio is in favor of lot of the neo-con craziness.

    But “JD” “Vance” is aligned with freaks like Thiel and Curtis Yarvin and the authors of The Unhumans and the Sovereign Individual.

    No thanks to all of that shit.
