Trump Says He Doesn’t View J.D. Vance As His ‘Successor’

President Donald Trump said it’s too early to decide whether he will anoint Vice President Jd Vance as his “successor” ahead of the 2028 election.
In an interview with Fox News anchor Bret Baier, Trump was asked, “Do you view Vice President Jd Vance as your successor, the Republican nominee 2028?”
“No, but he’s competent,” Trump replied, “I think you have a lot of competent people; so far, I think he’s doing a fantastic job. It’s too early. We’re just starting.”
“By the time we 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 went on without answering the question.
