[US Midterm Elections Concluded, Democratic Party Begins Fierce Battle for 2028 Presidential Election] ⑴ With the US midterm elections officially concluded, the Democratic Party immediately launched its 2028 presidential primaries, with dozens expected to run. Currently, there is no clear frontrunner, and policy differences are expected to intensify further. ⑵ Intense internal competition is underway within the Democratic Party: one faction advocates for a steadfast centrist approach, while the other insists on continuing to push policies to the left. Healthcare, taxes, law enforcement, and foreign policy will be key areas of contention. ⑶ Following the Democratic Party's landslide victory in the midterm elections, many potential Democratic candidates are capitalizing on the momentum. Nearly 30 politicians are assessing their candidacy, and several governors and senators are already positioning themselves in early primary states. ⑷ The Republican candidate camp is smaller, with Vice President Vance and Secretary of State Rubio leading the campaign; however, hampered by the setbacks of Trump's policies, candidates face a dilemma: maintaining their MAGA base while also winning over centrist voters. (5) Vance, constrained by his vice-presidential position, finds it difficult to distance himself from Trump; other leading candidates such as Rubio and DeSantis have also not yet officially announced their candidacy, and Trump still firmly controls the party's discourse.
