Trump Names His MAGA 'Heir,' Reveals Which Republican Will 'Most Likely' Succeed Him [View all]

President Donald Trump has given his strongest endorsement yet on who in the Republican Party may replace him once his second White House term ends.

Speaking Tuesday with reporters, Trump said Vice President JD Vance will “most likely” succeed him, with some possible teamwork from Secretary of State Marco Rubio.

“I think most likely, in all fairness, he’s the vice president,” Trump said of Vance when asked about him becoming the “heir apparent to MAGA.”

“I think Marco is also somebody that maybe would get together with JD in some form. I also think that we have incredible people, some of the people on the stage right here. So it’s too early, obviously, to talk about it, but certainly he’s doing a great job, and he would be probably favored at this point.”

Trump’s soft endorsement of Vance comes roughly six months after he declined to give Vance his blessings when directly asked by Fox News. Speaking with Bret Baier in February, Trump called Vance “very capable” but said “it’s too early.”
