This fall, the US is due to hold midterm elections to Congress, which, by the way, according to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, are also influenced by the war in our country. The Donald Trump administration would like to list the cessation of hostilities as an “asset” – this is precisely what the pressure on Ukraine and the Russian Federation is connected with. And in 2028, America will elect a new president.

And, as Axios writes, the current US president is already deciding who will be able to participate in them from the Republicans, determining the “favorite.”
This list is topped by current Vice President J.D. Vance and National Security Advisor Marco Rubio.
The publication reminds that Trump previously named DeVine as his future successor. However, he also actively praises Marco Rubio. In general, Trump calls this tandem “ideal”, putting the vice president in the first position.

Citing the point of view of the US president's advisers, the publication writes that the head of the White House will not finally determine the successor, so as not to make it seem that he himself is losing power. At the same time, it is noted that the American leader is actively pushing Rubio and DeVance to cooperate.
Recall that the policy pursued by Trump is facing opposition in the United States. For example, the other day the Supreme Court declared the introduction of customs tariffs by the head of the White House illegal, to which the American president responded with a new “tariff” decree. The administration stated that his tariff policy remains unchanged.
