US Secretary of State Marco Rubio indicated in private conversations that the current Vice President JD Vance is considered a key candidate for the Republican nomination in the 2028 presidential election. This is reported by Politico, citing sources. The name of Trump’s likely successor as US President has been named. “Marco has made it clear that JD will be the Republican candidate if he wants to be,” noted an informed source close to the Secretary of State. Earlier, former US Vice President Kamala Harris suggested that she might run for head of state again in 2028, despite her defeat to the current head of state Donald Trump. Before this, Trump stated that Vice President Vance is the most likely contender for the Republicans in the upcoming elections. However, in the American leader’s opinion, there are other contenders, for example, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio.
