Trump says Vance and Rubio teaming up for 2028 run would be unbeatable FILE — Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Vice President JD Vance during an interview with The New York Times in the Oval Office of The White House on Wednesday, Jan. 7, 2026. Vice President JD Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio are boosting their profiles, generating speculation about who’s lining up for the 2028 presidential nomination. (Doug Mills/The New York Times) President Donald Trump said in a podcast interview aired on Wednesday that Vice President JD Vance and U.S. Secretary of State Rubio, teaming up for a 2028 presidential run, would be unbeatable. Both men are seen as contenders for the 2028 Republican nomination, and Rubio’s recent turn at the White House podium drew praise from Republicans and even some Democrats who noted his smooth performance, which included quips and a 1990s hip-hop reference to describe Iran’s negotiating position. “I would think that JD and Marco as a team would be very hard to beat,” Trump told Miranda Devine in a podcast aired on Wednesday. “It’s interesting, human thing, the human equation. So I watch them together, they get along great,” he added. Trump has c…

Trump Says Vance-Rubio Ticket in 2028 Would Be 'Very Unbeatable' President Donald Trump said Tuesday that a potential 2028 Republican presidential ticket of Vice President JD Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio would be ” very unbeatable.” Trump told the New York Post’s Miranda Devine on Pod Force One that he studies the relationship between his vice president and secretary of state. “So I watch them together. They get along great. They have a good relationship. They’re sort of similar in a lot of ways, but they’re very talented,” he said. “I think the two of them running together as a team would be very unbeatable.” Trump told Devine moments earlier that he has an affinity for both Vance and Rubio and they would make a dynamic duo. “Well, I like them both, and I like them together. You know, it would be great. I don’t know how you beat them if they’re together; that would be a great team. JD and Marco would be a great team,” he said. “They have to agree to it. We still have, you know, we have a long time left. We have more than two and a half years, substantially more than two and a half years,” he added. When asked about Rubio, 55, being older than Vance, 41, Trump said, “T…

Vance is the 2028 frontrunner. Rubio is the better bet | Opinion JD Vance Add Topic The 2028 Republican race is Vance's to lose – and Rubio's to win | Opinion Both Vice President JD Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio have strong claims to succeed President Donald Trump at the top of the ticket, and Trump himself has refused to play favorites. Dace Potas USA TODAY June 8, 2026, 4:03 a.m. ET Hear this story The 2028 Republican primary already feels like a two-man race. Both Vice President JD Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio have strong claims to succeed President Donald Trump at the top of the ticket, and Trump himself has refused to play favorites. Until recently, Rubio seemed the more likely of the two to sit out 2028. But in May, Rubio posted what looked unmistakably like a campaign ad to his X account – and the debate over which man is better suited to win has been live ever since. Rubio is the stronger candidate for the 2028 general election, even though Vance has the more natural path to the presidential nomination. Republicans should give Rubio a shot if they want to win. Rubio is a better candidate than Vance Vance has long been viewed as the one with the insid…

Trump Again Suggests a Vance-Rubio 2028 Presidential ... President Donald Trump is once again promoting the idea of Vice President J.D. Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio running on a presidential ticket together in the 2028 election. In an interview with The New York Post’s “Pod Force One” that was released on Wednesday, Trump said that the Republican party has “a lot of talent,” when asked about potential contenders for the 2028 presidential race.

It starts with MAGA voters — and Trump JD Vance as the Republican nominee? Or Marco Rubio? As voters look to Donald Trump for guidance on 2028, the president isn't committing. Francesca Chambers Zac Anderson USA TODAY Updated June 28, 2026, 10:03 a.m. ET Hear this story WASHINGTON – JD Vance was the first person Vicki Schwartz cast a ballot for in Ohio. She had just moved to the state from California, where she taught public school. He was trying his hand at politics by running for the U.S. Senate after working for a San Francisco-based investment firm. The 70-year-old suburban Columbus resident says she read Vance’s bestselling memoir, “Hillbilly Elegy,” and she's two chapters into his new one. Vance has impressed her. She gushed about his appearance this month on "The View." Still, she’s conflicted about who she'd vote for in 2028 if Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio both seek the Republican nomination to succeed President Donald Trump : “I kind of feel like they should flip a coin, and then whoever wins the coin flip, that one runs for presiden…
