Pence is far from the only prospective candidate signaling interest in a potential White House campaign. Haley is slated to return to Iowa this summer to attend the Dubuque Regional Reception hosted by the state GOP, putting her back in the crucial first-in-the-nation caucus state.
Pompeo, meanwhile, is set to release a new book this fall detailing his tenure in the Trump administration. He also recently suggested in an interview with Fox News that his future political ambitions — including a possible presidential run — aren’t contingent on what Trump ultimately decides to do in 2024.
“The Pompeos have always used the simple fact of, do you believe this is the moment where you think you can best serve America — this is the place you can have the most impact,” he said. “That’s going to be how we make our decision in the end. It’s the right way to think about someone who puts themselves forward to the people of the United States to run for office, whether it’s president or back in home-state Kansas.”
For would-be candidates like Pence, Haley and Pompeo — all three of whom are former Trump administration officials — the apparent early moves may be born at least somewhat out of necessity, one Republican strategist and presidential campaign veteran said. None of the three are currently serving in public office, making it more difficult to stay in the spotlight as they plot their political futures.
“There are the former Trump officials who are working very hard to stay relevant without office, so you see them writing books, traveling, going on Fox News as much as they can, because they have to work harder to position themselves for a potential run,” the strategist said.

Bunch of traitors, more like.
“GOP shadow primary gains steam ahead of 2024”
Yes, that ole steam locomotive is heating up and the wood smoke is billowing from it’s stack. Watch out all you diesel engines, the old guard is coming back.
If Trump picks the ineligible Nimrata Randhawa, he will forfeit the votes of people who know what natural born citizen means.
This is hilarious. Yahoo is gonna strain a muscle hoping one of these losers can cause some kind of division in Republican ranks. Nope. Not a chance. They have practically zero support. If the Donald wants to run the race is over. If he doesn’t then his heir apparent Ron DeSantis steps in and the race is over. Its that simple.
Nimrata Nikki Randhawa Haley is NOT a NATURAL BORN CITIZEN.
She is NOT eligible.
Haven’t you noticed, that hasn’t mattered since Obama.
I wish it was that simple.
You think DeSantis won’t run if Trump runs?
Yes. DeSantis has openly said he won’t run if Trump runs.
Damn. I didn’t know that. That’s too bad.
I think I might prefer him although I would hate to see those two battle it out.
