JD Vance Drops 2028 Bombshell In CBS Townhall

Vice President JD Vance has opened the door to skipping the 2028 presidential race, saying he has not decided whether to seek the Republican nomination. He spoke at a Michigan town hall hosted by CBS anchor Tony Dokoupil, according to Daily Wire.

Dokoupil pressed the point after Vance joked earlier in the evening that he could soon be "out of a job." Asked directly whether he might not run, Vance answered right away that there was certainly a chance. He pointed to his family: he and his wife have four young children, and she has never been fond of politics, though she values public service. He added that people tend to assume a politician will automatically pursue the presidency, and that he sees plenty of good that can be done in his current role.

Vance described himself as a procrastinator who dislikes dwelling on big choices and settles them at the last minute. He said that once Michigan voters have elected Mike Rogers to the U.S. Senate, the pressure to decide will arrive. He closed by throwing up his hands and saying anything could happen.
