Trump withholds endorsement for Vance's 2028 bid
During an appearance in the Oval Office, US President Donald Trump refrained from endorsing Vice President JD Vance for a potential 2028 presidential bid. Trump praised Vance as a talented and good person but indicated that discussions regarding the 2028 race had not occurred.
When asked about the endorsement, Trump stated, “I don’t think we’ve ever talked about it,” to which Vance agreed. Vance expressed his belief that he would receive Trump’s endorsement if he decided to run, but he acknowledged that they had not discussed a presidential campaign.
He emphasized the importance of allowing the race to unfold naturally without premature judgments. Vance also recognized the intense scrutiny and pressure that come with a presidential campaign.
He reiterated that his immediate focus is on helping Republicans retain their majorities in Congress during the upcoming midterm elections, even as his name is increasingly mentioned as a potential contender for the 2028 presidential nomination.
