Trump reveals he doesn’t view JD Vance as his successor in 2028: ‘No, but he’s very capable’
President Trump has said it’s too early to know if he will anoint Vice President JD Vance as his would-be successor ahead of the 2028 election.
Fox News chief political anchor Bret Baier asked Trump, 78, in an interview taped ahead of Sunday’s Super Bowl: “Do you view Vice President JD Vance as your successor, the Republican nominee in 2028?”
“No, but he’s very capable,” Trump replied.
“I think you have a lot of very capable people,” the president added. “So far I think he’s doing a fantastic job. It’s too early. We’re just starting.”
“By the time we get to get to the midterms,” Baier interjected, “[Vance] is going to be looking for an endorsement.”
“A lot of people have said that this has been the greatest opening — almost three weeks — in the history of the presidency,” Trump deflected.
The clip aired Monday afternoon, hours after Vance, 40, landed in France with his family for the start of his first foreign trip as vice president.
