Republicans' landslide defeat in the midterm elections has cast uncertainty over Vice President JD Vance's potential 2028 presidential campaign, raising concerns among allies about the party's chances of retaining the White House, the WSJ reports.
On election night, a longtime confidant urged Vance to consider dropping out of the race, while some of his supporters now believe no Republican candidate can win the presidency in 2028.
Some longtime Trump donors are also looking at alternatives outside the administration, with Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis emerging as a possible contender.
Vance told insiders he is still undecided about running.
