US President Donald Trump addressed speculation regarding Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth's potential 2028 presidential bid, stating it was premature to discuss successors. Trump acknowledged Hegseth is doing a "fantastic job," but emphasized, "We have to get through the midterms first." Hegseth himself denied the reports, calling them "100% false." Trump, who is term-limited, has not named a successor for his movement, though Vice President JD Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio have also been mentioned as potential candidates. Trump highlighted his significant endorsement power in recent Republican races, calling it "the strongest Endorsement in the History of Politics."
