From the New York Post: Vice President JD Vance gushed that Secretary of State Marco Rubio is “my best friend in the administration” in a “Pod Force One” interview after President Trump teased them as an “unstoppable” 2028 ticket.
Vance, 41, told The Post’s Miranda Devine on the latest edition of the podcast, out Wednesday, that he ribbed Rubio, 54, about the prospect of their potential presidential ticket after discussing the details with Trump over lunch six months ago.
“We try to get lunch every couple of weeks just to catch up on what’s going on and talk about things,” Vance said of his sit-downs with the commander-in-chief.
Vance admitted that the prospect of a 2028 ticket with he and Rubio has come up.
He said the president “mentioned it probably six months or so ago. And I mentioned it to the secretary in jest, but it, it feels so premature because we’re still so early.”
“And what I always say to people is, if we take care of business, the politics will take care of itself,” Vance explained. “And we’re nine months into this administration. We’ve done a lot of good.”
So my attitude is, the American people elected me to be vice president. I’m gonna work as hard as I can to make the president successful over the next three years and three months,” he continued, adding, “And if we get to a point where something else is in the offing, let’s handle it then. But let’s at least get through the next couple of years and do good work for the American people before we talk about politics.”
Calling Rubio his “best friend in the administration,” Vance said, “He and I work a lot together. A lot of the good work that we’ve been able to do as an administration is because we’re all able to work together.”
