President Donald Trump mentioned that Vice President JD Vance is likely to secure the Republican nomination for president in 2028. This statement was made during the signing of an executive order to create a task force for the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics. Trump responded affirmatively to the question posed by senior White House correspondent Peter Doocy regarding Vance becoming the face of the Make America Great Again movement. Trump suggested that Vance could potentially form a strong ticket with Secretary of State Marco Rubio. He acknowledged other potential leaders within his Cabinet who could also lead the MAGA movement. Rubio, who previously ran against Trump in the 2016 primary, has since positioned himself as a Trump ally and expressed support for Vance as a potential nominee in 2028. Rubio made these statements during an interview with Lara Trump on the Fox News Channel.
