For the first time, Pence has put serious distance between himself and DJT. As to Trump’s assertion that a sitting VP has the authority to reverse election results, Pence said ”that this is not true.” No if’s, ands or buts. Trump is not correct in his assertion, says Mike. Indeed, Trump’s belief is unAmerican, says Mike. Wow!
What should we now think of Pence? Has he finally grown a pair and ended his total deference to DJT? Or, is he creating space between Don and himself as part of his run for the GOP nomination in 2024?
I’m going with the latter. I’m guessing that Pence has concluded he can never out Trump Trump. DeSantis is trying to inherit Don‘s mantle and is doing a good job at it. So, Pence needs to be a bit different. He is claiming his stake as a law abiding guy loyal to the constitution, not to one man. He stood up to Don on Jan 6. You can trust him.
Red and Blue teams: how do you read Pence’s new voice?
Thanks.
