US vice president JD Vance has made a "power move" that marks him out as favourite to be the Republican's next presidential candidate, according to a former party chair.

Ronna McDaniel told the Sky News Trump 100 podcast her "money would be on" Vance becoming the next nominee following his appointment as finance chair of the Republican National Committee (RNC).

McDaniel, who was RNC chair for seven years until 2024, described it as a "power move from a political standpoint and somebody who understands how the rules are made".

It's the first time a sitting vice president has served as finance chair.

His β€œpower move” is having a spine and being the MAGA flag bearer.

RIGHT!?

Yes, good riddance Ronna. What a do-nothing.

The support for grassroots efforts was night and day immediately. No more idiot Republicans running things like it’s an exclusive country club.

This is a win for JD Vance and a win-win-win for Trump.

Vance grabs the purse strings of the party and its lists.

Trump, by pretending to run in 2028, avoids being a lame-duck for as long as possible, he avoids discouraging other contenders besides Vance thus keeping them loyal and keeps press attention on himself by trolling, the patented source of his political power.

A good deal for them and a good deal for us.

Ronna (Romney!) Daniels has just begun her
“Missed Me, Yet?” televised tour.
Expect to see more of her. She’s pretty sure the President has always liked her.

SURE WOULD BE INTERESTING IF J D VANCE WAS THE PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE & TRUMP THE VP CANDIDATE.

IF THEY RAN THE USA AS A TEAM FOR ANOTHER 4 YEARS-—IT CERTAINLY WOULD BE EPIC.
