Allies of President Donald Trump increasingly view Senator Marco Rubio as a serious contender for the 2028 presidential race, according to a POLITICO report. Once seen as too establishment after his failed 2016 primary run, Rubio has gained traction due to his loyalty to Trump, his prominent role in foreign policy, and closer alignment with MAGA priorities. While Vice President JD Vance is considered the frontrunner, Rubio's rising poll numbers have made him a credible alternative within the administration. A senior White House official described Rubio as 'loyal, wicked smart, articulate, and very seasoned,' calling him 'a winner.'
