JD Vance Snubs Trump and Brands Marco Rubio His ‘Best Friend’… as Veep Admits ‘There’s a Crazy Person Inside Of Me’ During Bizarre Interview
**JD Vance Names Marco Rubio His ‘Best Friend in the Administration’ — Not Trump**
*Oct. 29, 2025, Published 2:05 p.m. ET*
JD Vance doesn’t see President Trump as his bestie — that title is now reserved for Marco Rubio, RadarOnline.com can reveal. In a rare moment, the Vice President didn’t shower Trump with praise but instead lauded the Secretary of State during an interview with Miranda Devine on the New York Post’s *Pod Force One* podcast.
### What Did Vance Say About Rubio?
When asked if there is any tension between him and Rubio due to MAGA factions pitting them against each other to become the right-wing group’s next leader after Trump departs, Vance made it clear all is well.
“First of all, no. There’s not going to be any tension. Marco is my best friend in the administration, and he and I work a lot together,” Vance said. He also revealed that he never “wakes up” thinking about becoming president.
Instead, Vance is focused on another unusual passion: extraterrestrials. The 41-year-old, who labeled himself a “mad UFO lunatic,” revealed that he and Rubio share a keen interest in the subject.
“I really want to sort of dig into it. You know, Marco’s actually very interested in this, too. We talked about this a little. We talked about this back in our Senate days,” Vance explained.
### Vance and Rubio Team Up to Find Aliens
Vance admitted he hasn’t yet had the time to fully explore the alien phenomenon. “Things have been so busy. But this is like the crazy person inside of me. And there’s, you know, all of us put the tinfoil hat on from time to time,” he said.
“I wonder, like, I can’t allow myself to become so busy that I spend the next three years and I don’t get to the bottom of this. So, I will get to the bottom of this, but it’s going to take me a little time.”
Indeed, Rubio, 54, has publicly expressed interest in UFOs and aliens. He is set to appear in the highly anticipated documentary *The Age of Disclosure*, which claims to unravel “an 80-year global cover-up of non-human intelligent life.”
“We’ve had repeated instances of something operating in the airspace over restricted nuclear facilities… and it’s not ours,” Rubio says in the documentary’s trailer.
### Does Trump Want Vance to Take Over?
As for Vance’s political future, he may have to put aliens on the back burner. Reports suggest he is preparing to take over for his boss amid growing concerns surrounding Trump’s health, including dementia.
“Slow or fast, [Trump is] headed down,” conservative political consultant Rick Wilson claimed on his Substack. “The circle who knows what’s up is very, very small and very, very paranoid. JD Vance knows, and he’s moving fast.”
Vance has previously said he had “gotten a lot of good on-the-job training over the last 200 days.”
However, Trump doesn’t seem fully committed to Vance just yet. “I think most likely, in all fairness, he’s the vice president… I think Marco [Rubio] is also somebody that maybe would get together with J.D. in some form,” Trump said in August.
He added, “So it’s too early, obviously, to talk about it, but certainly he’s doing a great job, and he would be probably favored at this point.”
Don’t tell that to conservative mouthpiece Steve Bannon, who, according to sources, told his inner circle, “Love him… but Vance is not tough enough to run in 2028.”
