ANALYSIS – Is Trump regretting his VP pick? Will Trump tell Vance he is “fired”? When former President Donald Trump selected J.D. Vance as his vice presidential candidate soon after surviving an assassination attempt, some called the choice bold and a doubling down on Trumpism.
I said he could help Trump make his case in 2024 and be the GOP standard bearer in 2028. Still, I also said I would have preferred Trump had picked a woman, and that I had some reservations about Vance as VP, including his youth and inexperience.

Republicans and Democrats rejoice: the group “No Labels” will not be fielding a presidential candidate.
Not that the group's leaders didn't audition any number of has-beens and also-rans for the job. Those are two commodities American politics has in abundance. What the group lacked, the Wall Street Journal notes, is an issue that could both motivate someone to accept a third party bid, and a critical mass of voters to make that candidate a legitimate contender. Think Ross Perot and the populist surge of the 1990s.
While few will notice that No Labels won't be fielding a presidential ticket, none of us will be able to escape the unpalatable choice between the aged, cranky and, in their own ways, profoundly dangerous nominees from Team Red and Team Blue. As the Journal writes:
That should be a very low and easy bar to clear. But I'm less sanguine in the ability, never mind the desire, of party regulars to find those fresh, new faces. Republicans were given that opportunity this year. They refused to take it. Democrats had chances to move in new directions in 2016 and 2020. Both times, they stuck with the golden oldies of campaigns past. There was a slight buzz that Biden would bow out gracefully this year rather than allow ego and vanity to propel him on yet another national campaign.
Fat chance.
This brings us back to wondering what might lie ahead in 2028, when neither Trump nor Biden will be available. Might that be the opportunity for a No Labels type of exercise to make headway? Perhaps, but only if either of the two major parties collapses in the next four years.
And the system is currently built to ensure that both will be around for a very long time. At least as slots on the ballot. Whether either party will be able to nominate a non-zombie candidate four years from now is an open question.
