This is about what is stated in the title. This is not the place to discuss who won’t and/or can’t be President, nor is it the place to discuss who you want to be President: Who do you think will be President after the 2028 elections, like it or not?
Do you mean after the official inauguration at noon on 1/20/2029, as of the closing time of the last voting location on 11/8/2028, or some other time in between? If it’s after the inauguration at noon on 1/20/2029, I’m going to guess JB Pritzker. If it’s any time before that, I’m going with Donald Trump.
After the November elections are over and done with. Not a trick question.
Between election day and inauguration day, JD Vance. By that time, DJT will have taken an extended downward escalator ride to be with Satan. On 1/20/29, Gavin Newsom will be sworn in.
Trump if he’s still alive, Vance if he isn’t. If not Vance some other far right type, but no guess as to who wins the power struggle.
Probably, a Democrat.
Worryingly possibly, a unelected or questionably elected Republican.
Less probably, a legitimately elected Republican.
Nightmarishly: Donald J. Trump.
My hope, Mark Kelly.
I think the election fears hinted at in previous answers will be playing out this November, not in 2028.
Yeah…let’s have some names, please. I asked for who, not which party.
No hopes, please. Just the person you think will be President.
Mark Kelly
The most likely is JD Vance, but he’s only like 15% likely.
If I had to bet right now the smart money is on Gavin Newsom (current governor of California).
Not my first choice by a long-shot though.
I think Josh Shapiro is a close second (also not my first choice…current governor of Pennsylvania).
Newsom.
It’s too soon to tell.
Whoever is POTUS on November 7, 2028.
I’m having trouble seeing who else it could be.
If I had to bet money, Ocasio-Cortez.
I get it is not a trick question, but I’m uncertain if I understand it. But to try:
In December 2028 – Donald Trump.
In February 2029 – The one individual with the greatest probability of then being president is JD Vance.
Now, I think it is a little more likely that a Democrat will be POTUS in February 2029 than a Republican. But the thread question asks for an individual name.
Moderating:
Our OP has clarified any loose language in the Title/OP:
So, let’s avoid any more “well technically…” one liners about the day after, the OP is clearly looking for who will be elected the next president of the USA as a result of the November 2028 elections. No warnings of course, just guidance.
More likely than not, I concur.
Not an American, so I don’t get a vote, but I would put money on Mark Kelly.
Purple state, former military, astronaut, Senator, a wife nearly killed as a Representative. Hegseth’s attack on him is buying him publicity hand over fist.
