Breaking! Mike Pence IS OPEN to Running Against Trump in 2024 – Laying Groundwork for 2024 Run
The Gateway Pundit ^ | May 23, 2022 | Jim Hoft

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.

Don’t panic. Pence MUST run in 2024 or never take the plunge. It is just the way of things. Please note that most politicians who “must run” because of timing and shelf-life and such are never nominated because there is only one slot per party each cycle.

Pence won’t get more than 5 percent of the vote against Trump. He may not even qualify to be in a debate against Trump.

Hey Mike, even under the highly unlikely possibility that you did get the nomination, the Democrats will steal the general election against you.

No freaking chance for Johnny Quest’s dad. If I see him, I would likely throw up on his shoes.

Of course he was a leaker, and his staff members.

> “Which is of course correct.”

Wrong.

Pence was never asked to “block” or overturn anything. That’s his sorry-ass excuse cover story, more accurately his idiot chief Marc Short, who wrote the Pence Jan 6 letter

January 6 is NOT in the Constitution. January 20 is. Pence knew this or should have known. That makes his action and excuse an action of Treason against the United States because objections by Congress to certification are perfectly legal and Pence at the last minute decided to foil congress from exercising its powers.

Pence was asked to delay certification to allow objections to be voted on. He or his moron staff spun it as being asked to “block” certification. Apparently you sucked up his lie.

I don’t fault him for acknowledging the reality of the powers of the office of VP - but he is not an inspiring or appropriate candidate for 2024. And if Trump runs, it is pointless for anyone else to - it would be time to just get about our business and win.

Even if one takes the position that there was nothing in Pence's power that he could have done as VP, there's still the issue of Pence campaigning for Kemp, who did have the power to change the course of the steal, and didn't.

Pence can’t be that delusional. He would have zero chance.

I would like to see a Trump/DeSantis ticket. Four more for Trump and then 8 for DeSantis.

He’s going to do a Fake Run and then pocket the cash.
He knows he has zero chance of even taking his home state.

Pence would not win and his run would be destructive. The anti-Trumpers want to get rid of Trump at any cost.
