Vance Plays It Cool on 2028 Speculation, Joking About an Apprentice-Style Ticket

Vice President JD Vance downplayed Trump’s chatter about a 2028 GOP ticket with him and Rubio, joking that a televised 'apprentice' contest isn’t appropriate. He’s focused on his current duties, while Rubio remains a high-profile ally and has said he wouldn’t run against Vance. Trump has reportedly polled advisers on top contenders and even floated a Vance–Rubio dream ticket, while Vance has been building fundraising support as GOP finance chair.
