Pence announces he’s reached donor threshold to qualify for first Republican presidential debate
Fox News ^ | August 7, 2023 9:06pm EDT | Paul Steinhauser

Former Vice President Mike Pence has met the requirements to qualify for the first Republican presidential nomination debate, his campaign tells Fox News.

Pence’s 2024 presidential campaign said on Monday that earlier in the day they crossed the 40,000-donor threshold — one of two criteria set by the Republican National Committee for GOP White House hopefuls to reach the debate stage. Pence had already passed the polling threshold mandated by the RNC.

The former vice president’s political team said they reached out to inform the RNC that Pence had qualified and spotlighted that they were the first campaign to submit their numbers for the national party committee’s verification process.

Fox News is hosting the debate, which will be held August 23 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

Pence becomes the eighth Republican presidential candidate to announce they’ve passed the thresholds to qualify for the debate. The other contenders who’ve already reached the criteria are former President Donald Trump, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, Sen. Tim Scott of South Carolina, former ambassador and former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley, former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, South Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum, and entrepreneur and best-selling author Vivek Ramaswamy.

Trump has yet to say if he’ll attend the first debate. …

Burgum is from North Dakota, not South Dakota.

Will anyone have a great performance, which will make one of these challengers serious competition for Trump?

Are some of these people really running for vice president?

Perhaps building name recognition and publicity for future campaigns for elective office?

I do not believe 30 Pence has 40,000 anything.

He still has to reach the voter threshold to have any support worth mentioning. The news has a hard time talking up candidates polling in the gutter.

I’ll be nice and say he might have 40,000 brain cells. (The average human has an estimated 80-120 billion.)

I therefore conclude that the threshold is too low.

I hope all the Pence trolls understand that when Trump uses the term “Liddel” like with Liddel Adam Schiff and others it is not by accident... He is referring to Alice Liddell the inspiration of Alice and Wonderland... and that the author of that book tried to marry her at 11...and then the family kicked him out of the house. You get it now... He is calling out or at least insinuating that Mike Pence is a Pedophile...true or not... I don’t know, but I am inclined to believe it given his cowardice on Jan 6 2021. Trump said, Mike Pence went to the Dark side... Why would Mitt Romney talk about hot dogs (pedo for young boy) the other day???...Makes me think that is because they are in the Pedo Ring running the country... They literally showed their colors to the cabal. They have chosen the side of evil... There is a reason Jeffery Epstein’s client list isn’t public. The elite in DC are not just a little compromised. They are outright satanic. They have done the most despicable things to prove themselves within that system. And... Michelle Obama is a man. (I am now convinced of that more than ever) That is how bad it is. You get it now... we are up against pure evil... the only question is who are you? Good or evil, there used to be a lot of gray but now we are down the rabbit hole. The battle lines are drawn. Think I am off my rocker??? Dennis Hastert the longest serving Speaker of the House died in prison a convicted pedophile. (And everyone knew it in my humble estimation.) Pray and try to be good but whatever you do... speak the truth every day and maybe we can save this country. God is not done with us yet.

That seals it—Trump will not come to be hectored by Pence.

Any Republican donors?

I read yesterday that he was selling tickets for $1.00 to get the donor count up.
