Mike Pence says he is open to running against President Trump in 2024.
The NY TImes reported:
After four years of service bordering on subservience, the increasingly emboldened Mr. Pence is seeking to reintroduce himself to Republican voters ahead of a potential presidential bid by setting himself apart from what many in the G.O.P. see as the worst impulses of Mr. Trump. He’s among a small group in his party considering a run in 2024 no matter what Mr. Trump decides.
Mr. Pence first used high-profile speeches to criticize the former president’s push to overturn the 2020 election results, stating flatly that Mr. Trump was “wrong” in his assertion that Mr. Pence could have blocked the Electoral College ratification on Jan. 6, 2021. Mr. Pence then unsubtly visited the Charlottesville, Va., memorial to Heather Heyer, who was killed in the 2017 white supremacist riot there that Mr. Trump sought to rationalize by faulting “both sides.”
Now, on Monday outside Atlanta, Mr. Pence is taking his boldest and most unambiguous step toward confronting his former political patron. On the eve of Georgia’s primary, the former vice president will stump with Gov. Brian Kemp, perhaps the top target of Mr. Trump’s 2022 vengeance campaign against Republicans who didn’t bow to his election lies.

He has nothing to lose, nobody likes him now so it’s not as if he’ll lose any support.
Trump drives them up the wall.
Race Bannon is betraying Professor Quest?
The deep state likes their presidential elections to be heads I win tails you lose.

More and more I am coming to think that Pence was one of the leakers in the adminstration. He was a GOPe plant all along, we knew that all along (he was picked supposedly to “moderate” Trump to the GOP and the public). Basically he was to Trump what George H.W. Bush was to Reagan except Bush waited until after Reagan left office to take a blowtorch to his agenda and accomplishments. I used to think Pence was like that, he wouldn’t act to undermine the President while he was VP. I no longer trust that intuition and would not be surprised to learn he was a big problem the whole time.
Ever smash a spider dead? The legs keep twitching for a while, right? The USA is smashed. Electoral politics, elections, representatives etc are twitching legs.
I don’t have the issues many here have with Pence over January sixth but I’ve got no interest in him in 24
Who’s going to vote for him?
The Democrats in the primaries?
If he gets the nomination Brandon is a shoe-in. Which may be the plan.
Pence is so cute when he thinks he’s relevant.
It also tells us that the Republicans have nobody to offer or they want the Democrats to win in 2024.
Dunno. Ask him.
What a LOSER 🤪
Don’t waste your time or money
Here’s the reality: Trump had a personality which was inevitably going to attract a lot of unneeded opposition. But the anti-Trump folks are all really anti-conservative.
Take Jeb Bush or Mitt Romney. They could’ve supported Cruz. But they hated Cruz just as much. They ended up making Cruz look like the anti-reformer, which was absolutely deadly... and got Limbaugh (et al) to take sides against them, which came across as an endorsement of Trump. So if you’re going to make Cruz look like an insider, why not at least endorse him? Because they hated him EVERY BIT AS MUCH. Sure he was mild-mannered, polite, well-spoken, experienced... eveything they claimed they hated Trump for not being... but that didn’t matter.
Not me.
“ Pence doesn’t realize that even if Trump doesn’t run - he still has no chance.”

BINGO!
Voting is encouraged because it demoralizes the public.
It hurts, they laugh, the right boasts ominously and frivolously about lush lawns.
