UH OH: Trump hangs JD Vance OUT TO DRY
"Shoot, almost last year, he was at 50% in the Republican horse race for 2028. JD Vance, today he's at 36. So he's tumbled like almost 20 points. And then Marco Rubio, you just mentioned, is up at 35."
Puck News chief national correspondent Peter Hamby says an Emerson College national poll of Republicans shows JD Vance’s support for the 2028 nomination falling from 50% in August 2025 to 36% now, putting him effectively level with Marco Rubio at 35%. Hamby argues the shift tracks, in part, with fallout from the administration’s Iran policy and Vance’s decision to act as a high-profile defender of Donald Trump.
