President Donald Trump said Tuesday he “wouldn’t be concerned” if Vice President Mike Pence ran against him in the 2024 presidential election.
“That’s ok if he ran. I mean, I wouldn’t be concerned with that,” Trump said in an interview with Fox News. “People are very disappointed in Mike, and if he ran, I don’t think that would be a problem.”
“Well, I think, if you look at the polls, I’m leading by a tremendous amount. I had a 98% approval rating in the Republican Party,” he added.
Pence gave a speech alongside Republican Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp on Monday, the night before the state’s gubernatorial primary. Trump has criticized Kemp for not overturning Georgia’s election results during the 2020 election, and has backed Kemp’s challenger, former Republican Georgia Sen. David Perdue.
“As you know, Brian Kemp did a very poor job on election integrity,” Trump said in the interview.
Trump spokesperson Taylor Budowich said Pence is “desperate to chase his lost relevance” in a Monday statement to the New York Times.
“Now, desperate to chase his lost relevance, Pence is parachuting into races, hoping someone is paying attention. The reality is, President Trump is already 82-3 with his endorsements, and there’s nothing stopping him from saving America in 2022 and beyond,” Budowich said.
Neither Pence nor Trump have publicly announced if they will run in 2024.
Pence ain’t got a chance in H***, Hi Took ZukerMoney, Took a sharp left Turn, but always ware a Rhino. Who in the H*** wants that Piss ant for President.
I doubt Pence would have any chance against Trump! If he really wants to take a chance at it , he better wait until Trump has already run out his time in office !
He still wouldn’t have a chance then.
Pence, 100% nice guy, 500% boring, 1000% too much of a politician, TRUMP the only one that can save us now, then DeSantis for 8 years.We need 12 years of presidency to end this communist takeover by the Liberal Democrats. Many of them dead by then! Some any day.
Even if Trump, DeSantis, Abbott all decided NOT to run in 2024 no one is going to vote for Pence! Not only was the election stolen from us, but Pence didn’t support our President when he needed it most and voters have long memories. We won’t forget or forgive that betrayal!
My husband and I just saw 2000 Mules. Unbelievable. We always knew the election was stolen and now there is 100% proof. Everyone should see this movie, including Democrats
I totally agree with you. Sadly, most Democrats will not see it.
