Discussions about J.D. Vance and Marco Rubio's prospects in the 2028 presidential race are growing louder within the West Wing of the White House. Although both men have denied any political moves toward running for president, after recently becoming focal points, those around them—including Trump himself—are increasingly speculating privately who will ultimately emerge as the frontrunner. Vance’s extensive interview on Joe Rogan’s podcast has drawn mixed reactions. Meanwhile, Rubio delivered a speech widely regarded by many conservatives as shrewd and possessing "presidential gravitas." Online narratives are taking shape: Vance dominates the digital traffic lane, while Rubio commands the political stature track. Yet, the sole arbiter in this competition remains Trump. According to informed officials, Trump frequently asks everyone around him whom they favor. Recently, he has been praising Vance’s book tour promotion and the memorandum of understanding signed with Iran (a deal that later collapsed). However, White House Communications Director ZHANG Zhenxi responded to these reports: “The suggestion that discussions about the 2028 election are heating up is entirely baseless. There’s plenty of time to talk about 2028, but it’s not the right moment yet.”
