Pence says voters want new leadership

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

NEW YORK (AP) — Former Vice President Mike Pence said Wednesday that voters are “looking for new leadership” following the disappointing midterm elections for Republicans, who are now openly debating whether his onetime boss, Donald Trump, should maintain a leading role in the party.

In an interview with The Associated Press just hours after Trump announced another White House run, Pence declined to say whether he thinks the former president is fit to return to his old job. But he implicitly positioned himself as a potential alternative for Republicans seeking conservative leadership without the chaos of the Trump era.

”I think we will have better choices in 2024,” Pence said. “I’m very confident that Republican primary voters will choose wisely.” He said that he and his family will gather over the holidays “and we’ll give prayerful consideration to what our role might be in the days ahead.”

Asked whether he blamed Trump for this week’s Republican losses, he said, “Certainly the president’s continued efforts to relitigate the last election played a role, but ... each individual candidate is responsible for their own campaign.”

You, Ron DeathSentence and Cancun Cruz. Those aren't new faces.

1. Sorry Mikey . . . it won't be you.

The pukes wanted to hang him and Democrats think he's a lying, sanctimonious creep.

[calimary]

2. I watched part of his CNN town hall last night, as much as I could, without gagging.

He's the most simpering, sanctimonious poseur I have EVER seen, and I've been around as an observer of these things for awhile.

Acts like his statements come straight out of Holy Scripture or something. And the "thoughtful" pauses added in, his whole schtick makes me want to heave. Just reeks of phoniness.

3. Mikey better pray that anyone even remembers his name by Christmas.

[Solly Mack]

4. Nothing new about Pence

[BeyondGeography]

5. Pence thinks just because Trump wanted him killed he has that new car smell

Sorry dude.

[W_HAMILTON]

6. He seems to think...

... that he isn't a part of that old leadership that voters are no longer interested in.

Funny how that works!

7. Mike, No one is buying your pious, serious Santa routine

I know you desperately want to be President, but I'm willing to bet next Thursday's leftover turkey has a better shot of winning than you do bud.

8. As much courage as a loogie you avoid on the sidewalk n/t

[Ocelot II]

9. Maybe, but it won't be him.

10. Pence would be a GOP disaster. MAGAs won't vote for him

[Walleye]

11. He is trying to be coy, not a good look for him

[Bettie]

12. Well, that puts him out of the running

he's been around forever, wandering around the edges because he's a weak, pathetic man who uses religion to make up for his lack of anything to recommend him.

[marble falls]

13. Pence IS part of the old order fer pete's sake.

[RKP5637]

14. Maybe the GOP asses should think about what they are saying and their platform rather

than looking for excuses and scapegoats. DUH!!! The people don't want what the GOP is saying. Pretty simple IMO to figure it out. Change your tune!

[onecaliberal]

15. "Hang Mike pence, hang Mike pence"

Those are the leaders your people want.

16. If he had any courage, he'd have testified in front of the J6 Committee.

The fact that he doesn't, shows me that this psuedo Christian thinks he has a shot at the ring in 2024. Poor deluded Mike, you are meaningless to Democrats and hated by Republicans. Hope his book sales tank.
