JD Vance reveals whether he will consider 2028 US presidential bid
USA: JD Vance slams democratic opponents for weak political record
JD Vance stated he is not currently considering a 2028 presidential run, preferring to focus on his present role and suggesting future political ambitions depend on his performance in 2025 and 2026.
Vance indicated that if he were to pursue the presidency, he would anticipate needing to work diligently to secure support from both the Republican Party and the American electorate.
He criticised potential Democratic candidates for 2028, such as Gavin Newsom and Pete Buttigieg, suggesting they unsuccessfully attempt to mimic Donald Trump's distinctive style.
Vance encouraged his base to vote in the 2026 midterm elections, emphasising the importance of continued Republican engagement.
Vance recently commented that he would be prepared to become president if a terrible tragedy were to befall President Trump, highlighting his on-the-job training in his current capacity.
