JD Vance weighs skipping 2028

The 2028 picture is getting strange. JD Vance is weighing whether to sit out the presidential race entirely, and the people around him are openly asking if that cycle is even the right moment for him after the Republicans' midterm losses. His explanation for the GOP's defeat lands on the conflict with Iran, and word is that his public criticism of that war rubbed Trump the wrong way. So the man once treated as Trump's presumed successor may not run at all, while Ron DeSantis, Brian Kemp and Ted Cruz are busy lining themselves up for 2028. CNN, writer Samuel.
