Former Vice President Mike Pence will travel to Iowa later this month, another key indicator he's pursuing a 2024 presidential bid. Historically, the Hawkeye State has held the first-in-the-nation presidential contest, the Iowa caucuses, which have launched and killed many a presidential campaign.
Pence will headline the annual Story County Lincoln Highway Dinner in Ames on April 23 and pay a visit to the state's ultra-conservative 4th Congressional District earlier in the day, according to The Washington Examiner. This week Pence also launched a policy platform - the 'Freedom Agenda' -

The idiot hasn’t got a clue that half the country considers him to be a traitor. Someone should tell him.
Never forget that, when governor of Indiana, he signed a religious freedom bill which would have denied the alphabet crowd the ability to force anyone to provide a service for them based on the provider’s religious beliefs. And would have prevented lawsuits against those providers. Then the LGBTwhatevers went nuts and he unsigned the bill. Once a coward, always a coward.

His first primary will be his last. I predict that he will get less than 1% of the vote and Trump will crush him.

The GOP will throw their weight behind Pence in 2024. It will backfire but they'll do it anyway. They don't want Trump back even though he was a very successful president. So, once again, the GOP will continue to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. Be it Trump or DeSantis in 2024, the GOP leadership will back Pence, until he drops out like Jeb 'low energy' Bush.
Republican stupidity - it's what's for dinner!!

Conservatives will never forgive or forget this Benedict Arnold turncoat for failing to do his Constitutional responsibility of making sure the election was valid before he approved it. Instead, he stabbed Donald Trump (and all of us in the back).
He will be lucky to come in 5th place in the primary in his home state, and won't get more than 1% of the primary vote in any other state. Trump/DeSantis will quickly make everyone forget about this backstabbing loser!!!!!!

Don't. Please, sir, just . . . don't. 90% of the people only know who you are because Donald Trump selected you as his running mate. Being the primary backstabber of President Donald Trump will not win you ANY votes from the true conservatives. Don't EVEN waste your time and other people's money.

#34, I never thought of his resemblance to Race Bannon - but even his speech mannerisms are the same! Separated at birth? I considered Clutch Cargo, since somebody else is obviously animating his mouth, but he ain't got the gonads to be Clutch. Or Race, for that matter. If you are a youngster under 65 . . . google it.

Pence is afraid to appear at any conservative gathering, so I can't see him going anywhere. He thinks he can mold a Democrat and Rino coalition, but the Democrats never embrace a traitor that comes to their side.

So this is the payment for services rendered on January 6th. Pence is not stupid, he knows he won’t win, but hopes to dilute President Trump’s base to weaken him. This old Deep State devotee is doing the bidding of those who bought and paid for him. He will benefit greatly financially from this treachery. He believes he can pull some of the evangelical vote from President Trump which is a joke. Anyone with any discernment can see this guy is a snake in the grass.

Chances are great that Pence’s political career is over as Trump supporters make up the majority of the Republican Party these days, and they will never vote for Pence. If the wimpy Republican Party wants to lose the 2024 election they will nominate Pence.

I am constantly amazed at how many people (including those I know personally) think Trump walks on water and will vote for him no matter what (and Ga. was a tipping point for me----I voted for Trump twice, plus gave $, KNOW the elections was screwed upon to a major degree but that is OVER and Trump should now stress NEW laws so it doesn't happen again) and others who HATE Trump so much that they would never vote for him, even with Biden destroying the country and Trump's actual excellent record. And these same people think Pence is the Devil for certifying an election he had to certify under the circumstances. So Trump will be the reincarnation of the Bullmoose Party and God knows what Democrat will win as a result---all because the Donald can't move on and his ego trumps (pardon) the people.

#1 We remember. At the time it was shocking to see Pence cave to the LGBTQ crowd and betray Christians who work for a living and are attacked if they stand up for their faith values. I think another person did that at a supper.
Out here in the West, a Christian Oregon family bakery lost their business from the LGBTQ crowd's attack and there was no one to defend them for their First Amendment Rights. Very sad.

Pence is probably counting on his Evangelicals to support him. Problem is, his Evangelicals have been suffering under Biden/Obama policies along with the rest of us. I don't think they will treat him with the same kindness for that betrayal as he is hoping for. Judas Pence got a mansion in the wealthiest part of his home state as payment for what he did. He needs to be exposed and shamed nationally for his betrayal.

It will be a very, very "significant passage of time" before many will forget this backstabbing untrustworthy traitor. IMO, he should just forget a 2024 run since I would be extremely surprised if he could make it through the primaries. And if he could, who would believe any campaign promise he would make? If by chance he was elected for whom would he work.....the people who elected him or the Deep State who is either paying or blackmailing him? I vote that it would be the latter.

Do you want to know why Pence is getting so much narrative time? The Plague Upon Our House
"Former Vice President Mike Pence should never, ever, never, ever, never hold public office anywhere free again. A do-gooder spewer of Bible verses as clichés, but with no discernment and even less courage. He hung the country/truth out to dry so he could play Grover Dill to Birx's Scott Farkus."
