Vance’s position
The day before, Vance said in an interview with 2Way that he believes he would receive Trump’s support if he decides to run in 2028. At the same time, he noted that candidates must run their own campaigns, while the president may refrain from intervening prematurely and allow the race to develop without determining the outcome in advance.
The vice president also confirmed that he had not discussed his own possible participation in the presidential race with Trump. Vance has repeatedly said that he is currently focused on helping Republicans retain their majority in Congress ahead of the midterm elections. According to the outlet, he is viewed as one of the leading potential Republican contenders in the 2028 election.
