A sitting vice president with rock-solid grassroots loyalty, a grieving movement searching for a new standard-bearer, and polls that show him crushing every rival \u2014 and Democrats still think he\u2019s a joke.

Polling already places him far ahead of every other Republican, with early surveys showing him at 40 percent nationally and enjoying a 46 percent favorability rating. Analysts like Chris Cillizza and Harry Enten, hardly MAGA cheerleaders, now openly concede that Democrats ignore his appeal \u201cat their own peril.\u201d Within the conservative base, the story is even starker: at Turning Point USA\u2019s AmericaFest, Vance captured over 84 percent in a 2028 straw poll, outperforming even Donald Trump\u2019s dominance from two years earlier. Erika Kirk\u2019s emotional public endorsement \u2014 vowing to get her late husband\u2019s friend \u201celected for 48 in the most resounding way possible\u201d \u2014 symbolized a movement transferring its loyalty. Vance may insist he\u2019s focused on the present, but the infrastructure, passion, and expectation for a 2028 run are already locked in.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The warning signs are flashing red.
