US Vice President JD Vance is considering dropping out of the 2028 presidential race amid declining political prospects and broader geopolitical tensions.
Reports suggest that supporters of the 41-year-old have advised him to drop out of the race to avoid backlash from Americans amid rising disapproval ratings for President Trump.
Insiders reveal that the leader of the Republican Party would be better off if he did not “own everything that has happened in recent years.”
Allies reportedly believe that he is still young and has a viable career ahead of him and that it would be better for him to sit out the 2028 presidential race and try another time when political conditions become more feasible.
However, a source close to the US vice president said the window to becoming US commander-in-chief is very small for every politician, adding: “If you don’t go when that window is open, chances are it will never open again.”
They added that maintaining political relevance until 2032 or 2036 will be an arduous task.
Talking to him daily mail Under conditions of anonymity, the source said: “Age-wise, he would be young enough. But drive-wise, there would be a brighter penny on the street.”
Vance has not publicly confirmed whether he intends to run for president in 2028.
