Former Vice President Mike Pence, a Republican, will announce he is running for president in 2024 at a rally-style event in Des Moines, Iowa, next Wednesday, a source familiar with Pence’s plans told Breitbart News.

Pence, himself, in a recent mid-April interview with Breitbart News in his home state of Indiana at the National Rifle Association’s (NRA) annual gathering in Indianapolis, said that he was “weeks, not months,” away from a 2024 decision. That has proven true, as next Wednesday is less than eight weeks after that interview.

Pence is delusional and looking for a paycheck.

Pence "Be a globalist not a narrow minded White supremacist that's bitter clinging to your Bible."

Thanks Mike, you've just outed yourself.

Populism would involve the great mass of the American population and their wishes for good governance of the republic. The Uniparty is not in favor of such things.

“Our Democracy” involves the Oligarchy and the rule of powerful men and women in the Deep State. The Uniparty likes this very much.

“Populist” is usually a slur of those that think the political elites are better than us.

Uh, Mike. Do you remember being the Vice President in the most populist Republican administration in decades? And I wonder if he remembers that his hero, Ronald Reagan, was considered a populist (aka “movement conservative”) back when he ran in 1976 and 1980.

…the “siren song of populism”…

Sticks and stones will break your bones, but crap will never elect you.

"“I believe we have to resist the politics of personality and the siren song of populism unmoored to timeless conservative principles, and we need to stand firm on the conservative agenda of life and liberty and a commitment to freedom that has always led us to victory,” Pence told the crowd at the Iowa State Fairgrounds."

Meaningless twaddle.

Name those conservative principles, Pence.
I don't think they involve lengthy detention without trial, taxation without representation, or binding us to foreign agreements without acquiesence of the representatives of the people of the US.

And what exactly is the GOP selling otherwise ? Off shoring jobs and white genocide? Endless wars ?

“Mike Pence Reiterates Call for GOP to Resist ‘Siren Song of Populism’”

We did, for 30 YEARS after Reagan. How about YOU, Mr. Pence, tell us what good it did...considering how broke we are and that we’re on the verge of World War 3.

Resist ‘Siren Song of Populism’ by singing from the Globalist hymnal.

Sounds like Mike wasn’t fully on board with the Trump administration. In other words, he was part of the problem.

Pence needs to go back to being a boring radio host. That’s basically all he was most his career. He was a short-term lawyer turned radio host. Then he got into politics and cashed in well off of that. Time to move on Mike.
