Vance Reveals Who Will Decide 2028 GOP Presidential Nominee
Vice President JD Vance says the 2028 Republican presidential contest will effectively be settled once President Trump picks a favorite. In an interview with Sean Spicer, Vance said the president's endorsee will win the primary, though he noted that 330 million Americans will pick the actual president in the general election, according to Daily Wire.
Vance has not ruled out running himself. He called himself a procrastinator and said he intends to wait on the decision until the midterms are behind him. He said his wife would have been weighing it for two years, but he will not decide before he must. Because the couple has four young children, he said, any run would need to be good for them, and he would have to believe he was the right person to serve the country at that moment.
Spicer also pressed Vance on his friendship with Tucker Carlson, the former Fox News host who has urged Trump's impeachment and floated a new party. Vance said he calls out disagreements, citing the Iran war, and faulted Carlson for defending Michigan Democratic Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed. Even so, Vance said he would never disavow a friend over politics.
