Mike Pence should run as an independent in 2024

To make Trump lose in 2024, pay for what he did to Pence, and save America in the process.
Unless Pence is a masochist like Ted Cruz, who fell in love with Donald Trump after he called his wife ugly.

I know several of them. It would be a good way for them to send a message to the GOP that they are tired of the nut jobs.

They would much rather have more right-wingers on SCOTUS and control of the executive branch then take a principled stand against TFG.

But there are plenty on the right who would be interested in peeling independents away from Democrats to help the Mango Mussolini return to power. But even then, Pence is the wrong guy.

I’ve been wondering — you do know this is Democratic Underground, right?

Whenever he speaks, he speaks of the things he holds dear: His God, His party, and something else but not the Country.

As a man, he lacks Character, integrity, honesty, faithfulness to the Constitution, and most importantly a spine.

If he cannot defend himself, how can he defend the Country?
