In 2028, this morning, Trump was asked whether he would back his vice president, JD Vance, if he runs. And he dodged that question like it was the war in Vietnam. I have a question. If he runs for president, would he endorse it? Well, he hasn't even talked to me about that. And it's too early to think about it. But I can tell you, I like him a lot. He's a very capable guy. He's doing a good job. He's out there rallying also. And I do like him a lot and I like a lot of people. Many of them much more than I like JD. Let me tell you something, Donald Trump is never gonna give it up. He will endorse no one for president. He's gonna grab a blow torch and a big can of Aquanet from his medicine cabinet. And he's gonna light that whole White House on fire when he goes.
