Like, I know it's still 2 years or something before the next U.S. presidential election, but some people are already discussing and debating over who should be the next U.S. President.
This is especially notable as back in 2016, JD Vance was actually one of the MAGA movement's fiercest critics, so his drastic political shift is all the more surprising.

I was watching this recent interview with Usha Vance, and she says that they want to take things "one step at a time" or something. Whom do you guys think should be the next President ideally, and why exactly??

Opioid of the Masses (From 2016)
To many, Donald Trump feels good, but he can’t fix America’s growing social and cultural crisis, and the eventual comedown will be harsh.
The great tragedy is that many of the problems Trump identifies are real, and so many of the hurts he exploits demand serious thought and measured action—from governments, yes, but also from community leaders and individuals. Yet so long as people rely on that quick high, so long as wolves point their fingers at everyone but themselves, the nation delays a necessary reckoning. There is no self-reflection in the midst of a false euphoria. Trump is cultural heroin. He makes some feel better for a bit. But he cannot fix what ails them, and one day they’ll realize it.
I’m not sure when or how that realization arrives: maybe in a few months, when Trump loses the election; maybe in a few years, when his supporters realize that even with a President Trump, their homes and families are still domestic war zones, their newspapers’ obituaries continue to fill with the names of people who died too soon, and their faith in the American Dream continues to falter. But it will come, and when it does, I hope Americans cast their gaze to those with the most power to address so many of these problems: each other. And then, perhaps the nation will trade the quick high of “Make America Great Again” for real medicine.

Vice President JD Vance leads a hypothetical 2028 Republican presidential primary with 32 percent, ahead of Donald Trump Jr. at 19 percent and Secretary of State Marco Rubio at 12 percent.
The McLaughlin & Associates findings offer an early look at the competition to inherit President Donald Trump’s political coalition, even though the next presidential election remains more than two years away.
Republican voters have not settled on a successor, but Vance starts with the widest support across the party’s principal demographic and ideological groups, according to this latest poll.
