Donald Trump announces his successor

U.S. President Donald Trump answered questions from members of the press at a signing ceremony held at the White House and pointed to Vice President JD Vance as the future Republican presidential candidate.

When reminded of his statements regarding not considering a third-term candidacy, Trump responded to the question, "Will JD Vance be the Republican candidate after me?" Trump said, "Most likely. To be fair, he is the vice president. I also think Secretary of State Marco Rubio could come together with JD. Of course, it is still early to talk about this subject. However, there were great names among those who stepped onto the stage. Definitely, JD Vance is doing a great job, and in this case, he would probably have an advantage."
