Donald Trump has had his say on whether Vice President JD Vance could become his successor in the 2028 presidential elections.<\/strong><\/p>\n

When\u00a0President Trump<\/a>\u00a0was first elected in 2016, he had running mate Mike Pence alongside him, with whom he continued with throughout his 2020 presidential bid.<\/p>\n

But after the 47th POTUS lost to\u00a0Joe Biden<\/a>\u00a0and the subsequent\u00a0January 6 Capitol riots<\/a>\u00a0wreaked havoc, Trump and Pence had a falling out, and it was Vance who Trump ultimately decided to have as his running mate for the 2024 elections.<\/p>\n

And after beating\u00a0Kamala Harris\u00a0<\/a>to the White House, Vance, who served as served as Ohio’s senator, was made vice president.<\/p>\n

With Trump unable to run again for president in 2028<\/a>, many have viewed Vance as the favorite to be the Republican candidate.<\/p>\n

However, Trump seemingly does not see it that way.<\/p>\n

The 78-year-old was asked about his vice president in an interview\u00a0with\u00a0<\/a>Fox News filmed ahead of the\u00a0Super Bowl<\/a>\u00a0last Sunday (February 9).<\/p>\n

\u201cDo you view Vice President JD Vance as your successor, the Republican nominee in 2028?\u201d Trump was asked by Bret Baier.<\/p>\n

The president’s response was certainly surprising, as he replied: “No, but he’s very capable.<\/p>\n

“I mean, I don’t think that it, you know, I think you have a lot of very capable people. So far, I think he’s doing a fantastic job. It\u2019s too early, we’re just starting.”<\/p>\n

While Vance and Trump may be in government together, the latter has not always been a fan of his boss.<\/p>\n

Quite the opposite, in fact.<\/p>\n

The VP previously said: “I\u2019m a ‘never Trump’ guy. I never liked him. My god what an idiot. I find him reprehensible.”<\/p>\n

Vance remained skeptical of his now boss until late 2020, according to text messages obtained by the Washington Post.<\/p>\n

Of course, the VP has since done a 180 on his views and is currently on his first foreign trip as Trump’s right-hand man.<\/p>\n

He is speaking to world leaders at an\u00a0AI<\/a>\u00a0summit in Paris and the Munich Security Conference, where he is set to meet French President Emmanuel Macron.<\/p>\n

Speaking of the trip, Vance\u00a0told<\/a>\u00a0Breitbart last week: “At the AI Summit, the main reason I\u2019m going is actually to have some private conversations with the world leaders who are also going to be there.<\/p>\n

“I think there\u2019s a lot that some of the leaders who are present at the AI summit could do to, frankly, bring the Russia-Ukraine conflict to a close, help us diplomatically there.”<\/p>\n
