Rubio's exit from Trump cabinet expected as Republicans eye 2028 run

U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio is expected to resign from the Trump administration following the Republican loss in congressional elections, according to The Independent. He is reportedly preparing a 2028 presidential bid. Rubio is considered a leading contender for the Republican nomination, ahead of Vice President J.D. Vance. Allies say he cannot campaign while in office and that ties to the administration would damage his chances. He is one of up to five cabinet members expected to leave the administration. British officials who have dealt with Rubio also anticipate his departure and a future presidential run.
