WASHINGTON (AP) — When former President Donald Trump was asked to list those he considers the future leaders of the Republican Party, he quickly rattled off names including Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and Sens. Josh Hawley and Ted Cruz. Conspicuously absent from the list: Mike Pence.
The former vice president is steadily reentering public life as he eyes a potential run for the White House in 2024. He’s joining conservative organizations, writing op-eds, delivering speeches and launching an advocacy group that will focus on promoting the Trump administration’s accomplishments.

Pence was picked because: - He would appeal to evangelicals
- He would pull in the never-Trumpers
- His 'nice guy' act would appeal to soccer moms
- Basically he was there to temper Trump for those squeamish about his tweets.
In other words, he'll be a good loser.

If they get Pence the nomination, the media would bury him alive under an anti-Christian broadside.
"He's going to outlaw homosexuality! He's going to build concentration camps for transgenders! He's going to imprison non-Christians!"
Half of liberals will believe the nonsense, the other half will pretend to and repeat it.

Sheeeeyit. About the only person who can draw smaller crowds than Joe Biden is Mike Pence.

Agree...He didn’t fight...he was at his best when things were good. And that notwithstanding, Leo Durocher’s baseball maxim largely applies to politics as well— “Nice guys finish last.”

Trump’s all in that it was a fraudulent election. Anyone that’s not all in isn’t on his a-list.
Anyway, who knows what Trump and Pence have said to each other privately.

Who do you hate worse, Pence or Romney? There is no wrong answer.

Okay, so The Fake News Mediums have chosen the Presidential candidate for The Washington Generals...upp, oop...I mean The Republican Party. The real fight will be for who wants them to pick him or herself to be his running mate.
Should be an interesting battle among Romney, Bush and Cheney.

Even if he becomes the nominee, I WILL NOT VOTE for Judas Pence. Really, any 2024 Republican President nominee is just the “Washington Generals” to Biden’s “Harlem Globetrotters”: the designated LOSER.

Not as long as I have a breath in me would I vote for this turncoat.
