Trader consensus on Polymarket positions HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as the frontrunner for the 2028 Republican presidential nomination at 49%, reflecting his high visibility from MAHA health policy initiatives, crossover appeal from his Trump endorsement, and March speculation from cousin Jack Schlossberg about a bid despite RFK's denials—though this diverges from CPAC and New Hampshire straw polls showing him at 0%. Vice President J.D. Vance follows at 37%, bolstered by incumbency and topping recent CPAC (53%) and New Hampshire surveys. Secretary of State Marco Rubio's 21% odds have climbed amid praise for his hawkish stance in the ongoing Iran war tensions, highlighted in recent administration briefings, setting up a contested early primary shaped by 2026 midterms and foreign policy tests.
