Is Mike Pence Really Going to Run For President?
Why?
Well, former Vice President Mike Pence appears to genuinely be considering a run for President.
Yeah, that Mike Pence.
The same one who had an entire mob of Trump’s most rabid supporters calling for him to be hanged as they rioted and hunted him down in the Capitol building. The same one who is polling no higher than low single digits in virtually every single poll conducted regarding the 2024 primary.
Johnathan Allen and Ali Vitali with NBC News write:
“Former Vice President Mike Pence said Friday that he will make a decision “by the spring” about whether to seek the presidency and suggested that he would pledge to support the eventual GOP nominee if that’s a condition of participating in primary debates.
“If I’m a candidate, I’m sure I’ll meet whatever the requirement is for debates,” Pence told NBC News in an exclusive interview.
As for his timing, Pence said he has a little while before he has to make a decision. “We’re listening, we’re reflecting, we’re talking to firms,” Pence said, adding that “by the spring, our family expects to have a very clear sense of our calling.”…”
I don’t think any of us should even bother to treat this as though Pence has any chance…
