JD Vance Will Be the Nominee in 2028-- Mark My Words
Byron York


Indiana Republican Sen. Jim Banks has long been an advocate for Vice President JD Vance. Before the 2024 GOP convention, Banks urged President Donald Trump to pick Vance as his running mate. Now Banks says, "After President Trump, [Vance] is the next best thing" and is a lock to be the next Republican nominee for president.

"JD Vance will be the nominee in 2028 -- mark my words," Banks told a dinner in Washington last week organized by American Spectator Editor-in-Chief R. Emmett Tyrrell Jr. Banks also predicted Vance will win the 2028 general election if Republicans follow the prescription Banks laid out for lasting GOP success: diminishing the influence of China and reorienting global trade, becoming a pro-worker party, pursuing peace through strength, restoring American manufacturing and replacing wokeism with patriotism.

After Trump finishes his presidency, Vance is the candidate to do that, Banks said. "To give JD Vance a lot of credit, he's not running for president yet," Banks explained. "He's focusing on supporting President Trump. He's heavily involved in negotiations over reconciliation. He's been very effective in working with some of the early detractors on Trump nominees and flipping them from 'no' to 'yes' on some of the more challenging nominees, like Hegseth, RFK Jr. and others. ... He's an effective partner of the president and a good communicator." Vance will use all those skills for his own campaign at some point in the future -- but not now.

Whoa!  Whoa!  Whoa!  Let's not get ahead of ourselves.

Congress hasn't passed a FY2025 Budget yet.  FY2026 is fast approaching.  And, then there's the 2026 Congressional midterms.  GOP has too small a majority to be complacent or arrogant.

I suspect that there are many, but Byron is correct IMHO.
"I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.

"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."

By 2028, J.D. may be the favorite, but I'd also like to see DeSantis playing a significant role somehow.

Then the Congressional GOP better get off its ass if it wants the horse in front of the cart.

Write it up, propose it, let the Democrats have to vote it down.

Then when the majority is more solid, all that will have to be done is resubmit the same legislation.

Anything less will be seen as impotent inaction.
Doing nothing is what will lose the midterms.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
