Lil Marco is not going to run for President if JD Vance is in the race.
Marco Rubio announced that he would not be running for President if JD Vance was in the 2028 race.
Hot Air reports:
Secretary of State Marco Rubio is privately telling confidants that JD Vance is the frontrunner for the 2028 Republican nomination and that he’d support the vice president if he chose to run, according to two people close to the administration.
Rubio’s private comments are a vivid example of how some Republicans are already gaming out a post-Trump succession battle, less than one year into the president’s term.
“Marco has been very clear that JD is going to be the Republican nominee if he wants to be,” said a person close to the secretary, noting that Rubio has expressed that sentiment privately and publicly.
“He will do anything he can just to support the vice president in that effort,” said the person close to Rubio, who was granted anonymity to share the secretary of state’s private conversations.
JD Vance will be difficult to beat, that is for sure. This is a good move for Rubio.
Vance is good, but Marco is more qualified, and I think, more importantly, tougher.
Mistake. JD is a weak candidate.
JD Vance for President in 2028!
