The consequences of the electoral earthquake in Washington: the possibility of Rubio's separation from the Trump administration The English newspaper "Independent" reported that following the heavy defeat of the Republicans in the mid-term elections for Congress, Marco Rubio, the US Secretary of State, may resign from the Donald Trump administration. Informed sources tell this newspaper that the US Secretary of State, who is also the White House National Security Advisor, is preparing to run for the Republican Party nomination in the November 2028 election. Currently, J.D. Vance, the vice president, is considered his main opponent in this direction. Even before the announcement of the disastrous results of the mid-term elections in which the Republicans lost control of both the House of Representatives and the Senate, senior officials in the Republican Party in the United States and senior officials in the British government told The Independent that Rubio may retire from his important role in the Donald Trump administration.
