A campaign-style video released in May articulating a hopeful vision of America, rising prediction-market odds, a growing “Draft Rubio” effort among GOP donors, and Donald Trump’s own public comments placing Rubio alongside JD Vance as a potential successor all point in the same direction. The only real uncertainty is not whether he runs but whether he can hold together the coalition he needs to win.
