Top Democrat Announces 2028 Decision

Although Vance was selected as Trump’s running mate in the 2024 election, Trump has also repeatedly praised Rubio for his work on foreign policy, including diplomatic efforts involving Venezuela, Cuba, and the Middle East.

Rubio has also served in multiple senior national security roles within the administration.

Earlier this year, Trump said Rubio could become “the greatest secretary of state in history.”

For his part, Trump has floated a Vance-Rubio 2028 ticket.

The president has described a potential Republican ticket featuring Vance and Rubio as “unstoppable,” while declining to indicate which of the two should head such a ticket.
