Vice President JD Vance indicated in recent television interviews that he is considering a potential 2028 presidential campaign, while also opening up about his religious faith and personal journey.

In an appearance on "CBS Sunday Morning," Vance stated that he and his wife Usha will make a decision about entering the 2028 presidential race following the 2026 midterm elections. He described former President Trump as "very supportive" of his potential future political ambitions.

Separately, Vance discussed his Catholic faith during an interview on Fox News' "Jesse Watters Primetime," describing his conversion to Catholicism and his relationship with God. The vice president spoke about what initially drew him to the Catholic Church during his personal journey to rediscover faith, stating that he "felt at home" in the church.

The interviews come as Vance settles into his role as vice president in the Trump administration. His comments about 2028 mark some of the earliest public discussion of the next presidential election cycle from a major political figure.

Vance's mention of waiting until after the 2026 midterm elections to make a final decision follows traditional political timing, as midterm results often influence presidential campaign strategies and candidate viability assessments for the following cycle.
