7 most likely successors to Trump in 2028

7 most likely successors to Trump in 2028

While President Trump says it's too soon to back a successor for his party's 2028 presidential nod, the jockeying and tea-leaf reading has begun in the search for the next GOP leader. The president himself suggested Vice President Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio are possible contenders. Trump's eldest son, Donald Trump Jr.,suggested this past weekthat he was keeping the door open to a possible run after his father leaves the White House, acknowledging "that calling is there." Some swing state governors have also made moves that stoked speculation of presidential ambitions this cycle. Here are the seven most likely successors to Trump in 2028: Talk of Vance as Trump's heir apparent began as soon as the president named him his running mate last year. The former Trump critic-turned-acolyte was already a leading messenger of Trump's economic populism and international isolationism, and he has used the vice presidential bully pulpit as a megaphone for his spin on Trump's "America First" agenda. Trump has hinted that Vance could be his successor in 2028, but he has avoided an explicit endorsement. "I think [Vance is] a fantastic, brilliant guy," Trumpsaid in an interviewon NBC's "Meet the Press" released earlier this month. "Marco is great. There's a lot of them that are great," he continued. "I also see tremendous unity. But certainly you would say that somebody's the VP, if that person is outstanding, I guess that person would have an advantage." Vance has said he's not taking anything for granted,telling NBC News in an interviewthis past week, "My attitude is, if I do end up running in 2028, I'm not entitled to it." Trump has loaded up Rubio's portfolio in his new administration, most recently making him the only person other than Henry Kissinger to serve as secretary of State and national security adviser at the same time. The expanding influence in the White House has increased speculation about what comes next for the previous presidential candidate, who was reportedly on Trump's shortlist for potential running mates in 2024. But MAGA World sees Rubio as insufficiently committed to the cause, and his past rivalry with Trump still looms. Trump and Rubio ran against each other in the 2016 GOP primary, with thepresident calling Rubioa "perfect little puppet," "kid" and "Little Marco," while Rubio described the businessman as "touchy and insecure." Their relationship has evolved much since then.Rubio endorsed Trumpover fellow Floridian Gov. Ron DeSantis right before the Iowa caucuses, a key move in his path to the Cabinet. Trump's eldest son stoked speculation this past week that he might have presidential ambitions while speaking at the Qatar Economic Forum. "I don't know. Maybe one day. You know, that calling is there," Trump Jr. said at one point after the moderator asked if he would be interested in picking up the reins and running after his father steps down. "Maybe. You never know," Trump Jr. said later, when pressed again if his answer was "maybe." Trump Jr., like his father, would enter the Republican race with no experience in elected office, though he has years of experience as a prominent figure in Trump's political movement. Things could get awkward between Trump Jr. and Vance, who have been close political allies, if they end up competing for the crown. The GOP primary between Trump and DeSantis got nasty and personal, but the president was quick to forgive his one-time rival after Florida's governor dropped out and endorsed Trump. While some Republicans see the Florida governor as a potential president, the 2024 primary still presents a significant hurdle if he wants Trump's backing. Both men havetaken steps to shore uptheir relationship, with DeSantis taking proactive steps to align the state with Trump's immigration priorities. DeSantis was even at one point reportedly being considered for Defense secretary when Pete Hegseth's path through the Senate was looking unlikely. Other potential hurdles to a 2028 comeback for DeSantis: feuding with the Florida state Legislature and growing scrutiny over the Hope Florida Foundation, the charity arm of a welfare program tied to Florida first lady Casey DeSantis. Glenn Youngkin, who is term-limited as Virginia's governor, was seen as offering a playbook for Republicans to win in blue-leaning states after his 2021 election, delicately keeping Trump at arm's length during his campaign. Youngkin opted against seeking the presidency in 2024 after flirting with the idea, avoiding getting in the crosshairs of Trump. But he could run in 2028. The Virginia governorin an interview with The New York Timeslast month stirred speculation by keeping the door open. "I have said many times that I do believe that folks that worry about their next job before they've finished their current one have their priorities misplaced," he told the Times. "My job is to continue to serve Virginians the best I can all the way up and through the last day I'm in office, and I'm committed to do that." Youngkin has butted heads with Democrats who wield power in Virginia's Legislature, and he failed to win a trifecta that would have allowed him to advance more of his conservative agenda. During the 2023 election, Youngkin and Virginia's GOP tried to go on offense on abortion by suggesting a statewide 15-week limit. Democrats won full control of the state Legislature. Kristi Noem, the former governor of South Dakota, has been one of Trump's most ardent defenders and was also floated as a potential running mate for him last cycle. An anecdote included in a then-forthcoming book —about shooting her wirehaired pointerCricket for behaving badly during a pheasant hunt — largely extinguished those prospects. Trump still tapped her as a key Cabinet official, making her a face of his immigration policy as the head of the Department of Homeland Security. She's defended the administration's handling of the case of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, who was mistakenly deported to El Salvador, and she has sought to bar Harvard University from being able to have international students enroll in the university. Brian Kemp stoked speculation earlier this month that he might have his eyes on the White House in 2028 after he declined to run against Sen. Jon Ossoff (D-Ga.) for Senate next year, despite intense recruitment efforts from the party. Kemp notably didn't vote for Trump in the GOP primary,telling CNN last year that"the race was already over when the primary got here." Trumpreportedly badmouthedKemp, a very popular figure in a key swing state, following a fundraiser. The two managed to patch things up before the November election,offering supportive remarksto one another on Fox News and Truth Social, and Kempparticipated in a fundraiserfor Trump. Like Youngkin, Kemp's business bona fides and success in a swing state would also make him attractive to members of the party. But his cool relationship with Trump makes him an unlikely favorite for the MAGA wing. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

Trump says Harvard's foreign students are from countries paying 'nothing' for their education

Trump says Harvard's foreign students are from countries paying 'nothing' for their education

PresidentDonald Trumpon Sunday criticized foreign countries for paying "nothing" toward the education of their citizens who are attending college at Harvard and other U.S. institutions. This comes amid the fight between the Trump administration and Harvard for its plans to revoke the university's ability to enroll foreign students. "Why isn't Harvard saying that almost 31% of their students are from FOREIGN LANDS, and yet those countries, some not at all friendly to the United States, pay NOTHING toward their student's education, nor do they ever intend to," Trump wrote early Sunday morning on Truth Social. "Nobody told us that!" Judge Temporarily Pauses Trump Move To Cancel Harvard Student Visa Policy After Lawsuit "We want to know who those foreign students are, a reasonable request since we give Harvard BILLIONS OF DOLLARS, but Harvard isn't exactly forthcoming," he continued. "We want those names and countries. Harvard has $52,000,000, use it, and stop asking for the Federal Government to continue GRANTING money to you!" On Friday, a judge temporarily blocked the administration from canceling Harvard's student visa program after the university filed a lawsuit against the federal government. Read On The Fox News App Harvard argued that the policy would affect more than 7,000 visa holders — nearly a quarter of thestudent body— and that the administration's effort is a "blatant violation of the First Amendment, the Due Process Clause, and the Administrative Procedure Act," according to its court filing. "It is the latest act by the government in clear retaliation for Harvard exercising its First Amendment rights to reject the government's demands to control Harvard's governance, curriculum, and the 'ideology' of its faculty and students," Harvard wrote in its complaint. Federal Judge Blocks Trump Administration From Terminating International Students' Legal Status The Department of Homeland Security moved to terminate Harvard's visa program after the university allegedly failed to provide extensive behavioral records of student visa holders the agency had requested. The records sought include any footage of protest activity involving student visa holders, even if it's not criminal, and the disciplinary records of all student visa holders in the past five years. Requested records also include footage or documentation of illegal, dangerous or violent activity by student visa holders, any records of threats or the deprivation of rights of other students or university personnel. Harvard called the new policy "pernicious" and accused the administration of departing from "decades of settled practice" and coming "without rational explanation." The university also said the policy was "carried out abruptly without any of the robust procedures the government has established to prevent just this type of upheaval to thousands of students' lives." At least a dozen Harvard students have had their student visas revoked over campus protest activity. Secretary of StateMarco Rubiosaid before Congress on Tuesday that the administration has probably revoked thousands already and would "proudly" revoke more. The administration has already frozen close to $3 billion in federal funding to the university, largely dedicated to research, over claims that Harvard has not adequately responded to alleged campus antisemitism in protests and has not moved to eliminate diversity, equity and inclusion practices. Fox News' Morgan Phillips contributed to this report. Original article source:Trump says Harvard's foreign students are from countries paying 'nothing' for their education

In an uneasy climate, diverse pride groups converge on DC with differing interests but common goals

In an uneasy climate, diverse pride groups converge on DC with differing interests but common goals

WASHINGTON (AP) — You've heard of twofers. Kenya Hutton is a "threefer." His parents areimmigrants, he's a Black man and he's gay — at a moment in history when anti-immigrant fervor, racism and anti-LGBTQ feelings are rampant and amplified by Trump administration policies. Hutton is hardly alone. As members of the Black and Latino LGBTQ and transgender and other communities come to the nation's capital forWorld Pridein the coming days, many are under siege from multiple directions thanks to their multiple identities. They will hold individualized programs and celebrations that blend intoWorld Pride. Theirmutual jeopardywill be a unifying theme. The celebrations, music, food, parades, plays and parties will unfold against a backdrop of human rights and political strategizing and, in some cases, discussions about how to survive in a climate that contains many people who do not want them around. "I always tell folks that DC was the perfect place to have World Pride," Hutton said. "We have so many different identity prides here in D.C., from Black Pride to Trans Pride toAPI Pride,Latinx Pride, Military Pride, Women's Pride, Silver Pride, we have so many different groups of people that have their own pride celebration." Looking for solutions to an 'intersectional' problem Frankie Miranda, the first openly gay president and CEO of the Hispanic Federation, says immigrants and the LGBTQ+ community have been "in triage mode for months" as they defend "a multiapproach attack on many members of our community from different sides." Miranda, who is Puerto Rican, said immigrant families are being separated and the LGBTQ community targeted. After years of progress, those efforts are being eroded and "fundamental rights challenged and taken away," he said. "It's a reminder of how much work we still have ahead and of how we must work in an intersectional way." Miranda urged Pride events to have direct calls to action and take a more political approach this year, including by looking to the 2026 elections. Susan Appleton, professor of women, gender. and sexuality studies at the Washington University School of Law in St. Louis, said the nation's culture and society, "including law,"have always regulated gender, race and other identities. But, she said, "I think we're in a very unusual time when the targets have become very explicit and when for many years we haven't seen the lack of empathy that we see now." "But I do think it's encouraging to me to see that there is a vigorous resistance," she said. "I don't know whether it will accomplish anything, but I think it is important to make sure that all voices are heard." That people are facing multiple grievances, she said, now shows "it's not sufficient to look at race alone or gender alone or sexuality alone but all those factors." They intersect and "create unique vectors of oppression." People at the intersections between the Latino community and immigrant communities "face attacks from all sides," said Dee Tum-Monge, a board member for the Latinx History Project, the steering organization for Latinx Pride. World Pride is aiming "to create spaces focused around community care and political organizing while still celebrating our joy," they say. The focus, Tum-Monge said, is shifting away from just voting and federal action to work that attendees can do at local levels. Amid mounting threats to immigrants and the LGBTQ+ community, Tum-Monge said organizers are particularly concerned about security and will be watching for international participants who may face obstacles traveling. Statements as diverse as those making them Although official events are kicking off now, programs that have begun suggest how diverse activities will be. The scene last week was almost solemn as people walked along the National Mall in sight of the Capitol, reading messages on some of the hundreds of quilts made by transgender people from around the country. The "Freedom to Be" quilt project was there to raise awareness of the transgender community, which has been under fire fromPresident Donald Trump.The messages ranged from defiance to hopes for acceptance. "I hope there are days when you fall in love with being alive," said one. And on another: "THERE'S A LAND THAT I SEE WHERE THE CHILDREN SHOULD BE FREE." Abdool Corlette, head of brand for the American Civil Liberties Union and a co-creator of the project, said a message needed to be sent. "We are seeing across the board an attempt to erase trans folks from all public life," Corlette said. "And we knew that we need to take up space. We needed to memorialize people's stories and do it in the literal backyard of the Capitol." Gillian Branstetter, his co-creator and communications strategist at the ACLU's Women's Project, said actions like the Republican president's executive order thataffects military personnelare abstract to some but have real impacts in the transgender community where health care is threatened, along withthe loss of jobsand threats of violence. The scene was anything but solemn 3 miles north of the Mall, inside the student center at Howard University, one of the nation's renowned historically Black universities. It was festive and bright, filled with joy and shouts of encouragement and music as members of various groups — called houses — competed in events that included fashion modeling and dance at the Cirque du Slay Ball. One attendee, John Smith III (stage name IconFatty Prodigy), said the balls are modeled on Cirque du Soleil and are about community and safe spaces. Iran Paylor (stage name Bang Garcon) said the houses are places set up by LGBTQ communities to give safe spaces to others estranged from their families and ostracized within the Black community when they came out. Black Pride is a key center of gravity D.C. Black Pride began in 1975 at the ClubHouse, founded by members of the city's LGBTQ community. Over the years, an event around Memorial Day became a tradition. The ClubHouse closed in 1990, but three members of the community kept the tradition going. The first Black Gay and Lesbian Pride event was held on May 25, 1991. Hutton is the president and CEO of the Center for Black Equity, founded in 1999 as a way to bring together all of the Black pride movements that were being created around the country following the model in Washington. There are 54 in the United States and 12 internationally, he said. As a Black gay man, Hutton already had battles on multiple fronts. Now there is an additional category to worry about. "I'm also a child of immigrants, just to add that on top of my intersections," he said. "I'm always paying attention to immigration conversations. It's very hard navigating the world right now." But, he said, his responsibility is to use the access he has developed over the years to create safe spaces. "So even though it is difficult to navigate and listen to the news every day, I also understand that I've been given this task." The job has been hard this year. Sponsors have pulled out of the celebrations and he knows some international travelers are not coming due to fear they will have difficulties with law enforcement. Hutton understands why various groups want individual activities; one version will not accommodate all audiences. But the cornerstone of Black pride is community. "We have the opportunity to really showcase all of these communities to the world," he said. In the end, he said, he wants one message to resound after the gathering of communities: "We're not going anywhere." "We'll continue pushing our rights forward, not just for us in America," Hutton said. "As someone told me, when America sneezes, the world catches a cold. So we have to make sure that America doesn't catch a cold."

North Korea arrests engineer, other officials over major accident during new warship launch

North Korea arrests engineer, other officials over major accident during new warship launch

North Korea has detained shipyard officials responsible for a recent majoraccidentduring thelaunch of a new warship, state media said on Sunday. The failed launch that crippled the 5,000-tonne warship was witnessed byleader Kim Jong Unwho said the accident damaged the country's dignity and vowed to punish those found responsible. The mishap likely occurred in front of a large crowd at the northeastern port of Chongjin, increasing the publichumiliation for Kimwho tried to show off military might, experts say. As theinvestigationinto the case intensified, law enforcement authorities arrested the chief engineer of the Chongjin Shipyard among others, state KCNA news agency reported on Sunday. Satellite imagery shows the warship, covered in blue tarps, lying on its side, with the stern swung out into the harbor, but the bow remaining on the side slipway, according to the U.S.-based Center for Strategic and International Studies. Kim has ordered the ship restored before a ruling party meeting in June. KCNA said the rehabilitation plan was pushing ahead. Against U.S. military buildup in the region, North Korea's armed forces "will thoroughly contain and control all sorts of military threats from the enemy countries," KCNA said in a separate dispatch citing the policy chief at the defense ministry.

Jonah Goldberg Distinguishes Conservatism From the Trump Right

Jonah Goldberg Distinguishes Conservatism From the Trump Right

In 2016, prominent conservatives warned fellow Republicans against backing Donald Trump in the GOP presidential primary. The billionaire real-estate mogul and reality TV star, Trumps conservative critics argued, was vain, vulgar, and mercurial; ignorant of public policy; and lacked commitment to conservative or any other principles. After Trump won his partys nomination, conservative Never Trumpers exhorted Republicans to vote in the general election for Democrat Hillary Clinton or a third-party candidate. To elect Trump, the Never Trumpers contended, would inflict long-term harm by legitimizing a rogue element within the conservative movement. Better to lance the boil early and suffer less pain later. During his first term, President Trump did much to please the conservatives who voted for him. Notwithstanding the drumbeat of accusations that he would destroy freedom and democracy in America and an onrush of his own over-the-top pronouncements on social media, Trump cut taxes and reduced regulations. He appointed conservative judges. He cracked down on illegal immigration. Until COVID-19 struck the world in the final year of his term, he presided over a growing, low-unemployment economy. His administration reoriented U.S. foreign policy around the overarching challenge to American freedom, playing out on every continent, presented by the Chinese Communist Party. And Trump accomplished all this despite a two-year special-counsel investigation that did not find evidence to vindicate the charge that he colluded with Russia to steal the 2016 presidential election, and an impeachment and Senate trial for improperly withholding aid from Ukraine that ended in acquittal. Trump then executed an astonishing political comeback - overcoming the Jan. 6 riots, a second impeachment, two civil lawsuits, four criminal indictments, and two assassination attempts - to win back the White House in 2024. The frenetic and tumultuous first four months of the second Trump administration have put the president and his teams still more at odds with traditional American conservatism. Whereas in 2017 he arrived in Washington accompanied by a small, largely inexperienced retinue, this time, no longer a political neophyte, he surrounded himself with an extensive network of officials, advisers, and assistants who share an overriding loyalty to the man and his agenda. Already, he has signed more than 150 executive orders that disrupt, scale back, or terminate long-established government programs. He has taken on the federal bureaucracy, illegal immigration, and elite universities. He has imposed, and then suspended or reduced, massive tariffs on Americas trading partners - friends and allies as well as China. He has scoffed at Americas promotion of freedom and democracy abroad while emphasizing the pursuit of peace and stability through commerce. And he has exploited social media not only to circumvent the press and communicate with the people directly but also to troll adversaries,includingworld-famous musicians. The second Trump administration seems to have thrown caution to the wind. Does it still make sense to characterize as conservative the president, his administrations shock-and-awe tactics, and the "New Right" for whom the president can seemingly do little wrong? In "Dont Call This Conservatism," a lengthy essay appearing mid-May in The Dispatch, Jonah Goldberg puts the matter starkly. "If being a principled defender of the constitutional order, limited government, free markets, traditional values, and an America-led world still makes you a conservative, are you still on 'the right when the loudest voices on the right reject most or all of those positions?" A prominent conservative voice for more than 20 years, the former National Review senior editor is editor-in-chief and co-founder of The Dispatch as well as the bestselling author of "Liberal Fascism" among other books, an AEI senior fellow, a Los Angeles Times columnist, and host of "The Remnant" podcast. Always entertaining and illuminating and as home in popular culture as in the classics of conservatism and the particulars of public policy, he insists that "[l]abels matter, because we use labels - terms, constructs, categories, words - to understand reality and chart our course through it, both individually and collectively." Goldberg credits the Catholic man of letters G.K. Chesterton (1874-1936) with providing, in describing two reformers competing attitudes toward a fence or gate, a good first approximation of conservatism. "The more modern type of reformer goes gaily up to it and says, 'I dont see the use of this; let us clear it away," writes Chesterton. "To which the more intelligent type of reformer will do well to answer: 'If you dont see the use of it, I certainly wont let you clear it away. Go away and think. Then, when you can come back and tell me that you do see the use of it, I may allow you to destroy it." Whereas progressives are disposed to tear down to make way for the new, conservatives inclination is to preserve and improve what exists. Conservatism so understood designates both a temperament and an intellectual orientation. The 20th-century British thinker Michael Oakeshott, according to Goldberg, captures the conservative temperament: "To be conservative, then, is to prefer the familiar to the unknown, to prefer the tried to the untried, fact to mystery, the actual to the possible, the limited to the unbounded, the near to the distant, the sufficient to the superabundant, the convenient to the perfect, present laughter to utopian bliss," Oakeshott observes. The conservative temperament cherishes the inherited, admires the beauty in the passing moment, and aims high while taking in stride the worlds rampant folly, perfidy, and ill fortune. A conservative in the intellectual sense brings such a temperament to life in the preservation and improvement of a particular tradition. An American conservative, for example, cultivates and transmits the nations fundamental beliefs, practices, and institutions. That starts with Americas founding principles and constitutional practices: individual rights, limited government grounded in the consent of the governed, equality under law, free markets, and robust civil society composed of families, faiths, and a multitude of civic associations. It includes the convictions and virtues that enable a free people to govern itself and pursue happiness. In the 1960s, National Review senior editor Frank Meyer gave the name "fusionism" to the blend of freedom and traditional morality that undergirds Americas constitutional inheritance, and which reflects the logic of free and democratic self-government. Trump and the New Right that has consolidated around him, Goldberg contends, pose a fatal threat to traditional conservatism in America - temperamental and intellectual. Under the guise of rethinking or reinventing conservatism, the Trump right panders to the people by repackaging as conservative policies that fit popular grievances, Goldberg maintains. The Trump right endorses an "apocalyptic politics," insisting that American institutions - including the conservative establishment as well as the progressive establishment - are crumbling and that the right ought to hasten their collapse. It regards the rule of law as an instrument to be used and not used as pursuit of the common good dictates. It embraces the statism of tariffs and industrial policy. It downplays the power of American principles in diplomacy and disparages long-standing American allies. It celebrates manliness, which it equates with bravado, brute strength, and conquest, and which it severs from honor, virtue, and justice. Much of the Trump right would agree with Goldberg that it and traditional American conservatism represent divergent and increasingly clashing political outlooks. Yet that leaves open the prudential question whether given the circumstances, a traditional American conservative might reasonably have preferred Trump in 2024, as in 2016 and 2020. Oddly, given the importance that traditional conservatism attaches to prudence, Goldberg overlooks the question. But a traditional conservative is obliged to take stock of the world as it is. By 2016 it had become incumbent on traditional American conservatives to recognize that American conservatism had lost its way. Traditional American conservatives stress realistic assessment of the nations capabilities, fiscally responsible governance, and the dependence of politics on culture and education. Yet during George W. Bushs two terms, conservatives conducted wars in Afghanistan and Iraq that fell far short of their objectives. In addition, they oversaw reckless increases in government spending. And they offered little opposition to the progressive culture war, not least on campuses, against traditional morality. Traditional American conservatives emphasize the importance of character to statesmanship and citizenship. Such a conservative might have sensibly viewed as the worse option the corrupt and cynical Hillary Clinton in 2016, the obviously declining Joe Biden in 2020, and the often unintelligible and progressive-left-backed Kamala Harris in 2024. And while traditional American conservatives can never regard the peoples passing predilections as the supreme guide to politics, in the 2010s popular discontent with self-regarding and incompetent elites surged throughout the rights-protecting democracies of the West. Far from lancing a boil by keeping Trump out of the White House, a vote for Clinton or Harris - as a vote for Biden demonstrated - would have paved the way for more hard-left policies that would have further alienated red-state America and intensified the grievances that Trump rode to victory in 2016 and 2024. In these situations, traditional American conservatives might reasonably have chosen to moderate the Trump right rather than join the resistance against it.
