Mike Pence makes his move

Feel the magic:

Former Vice President Mike Pence is looking at a possible 2024 run at the presidency with the help of the Advancing American Freedom advocacy group, which the Washington Examiner says is “designed to merge traditional conservative thinking with Trumpism.”

The group’s advisory board includes former members of the Trump administration such as Kellyanne Conway and Larry Kudlow.

“Advancing American Freedom plans to build on the success of the last four years by promoting traditional conservative values and promoting the successful policies of the Trump administration,” Pence said in a statement to the Washington Examiner. “Conservatives will not stand idly by as the radical left and the new administration attempt to threaten America’s standing as the greatest nation in the world with their destructive policies.”

Even Trump gave a statement to The Washington Examiner with a good a word for his former VP. “It was the most successful first term in American history,” he said. “Nice to see Mike highlighting some of our many achievements!”

Is that a good word for his former VP or for himself? Lol.

And anyway, their term was a fucking disaster. The president was impeached twice, the US became a rogue state/laughing stock, and more than 500,000 Americans died, most of those deaths avoidable if the federal government had been functional There was also a violent insurrection and half the public has been brainwashed into believing a monumental lie even bigger than the one that says this presidency was successful. Nothing in American history even comes close and in world history, comparisons to nuts like Caligula come to mind.

It doesn’t seem that Trump is very worried about a Pence 2024 run. I’d guess he’s right. I don’t make predictions about politics but my gut instinct tells me that Mike Pence’s chances of becoming president are somewhat less likely than Britney Spears.

As for Kellyanne Conway and Larry Kudlow — please. If they think they are going to rehab their reputations, they have another thing coming. Pence can’t either, of course. But his is somewhat different than theirs. Pence is the guy who spent four years publicly fluffing Trump so blatantly that it even made Trumpers nauseous and then he betrayed their Dear Leader at the end. I don’t think that’s going to be forgivable.

Conway and Kudlow are crude Trump henchmen and nothing more now. If they aren’t on his team they are enemies. Trump will not forgive them if he decides to run. And nobody who isn’t a Trump loyalist will ever trust them.

It will be interesting to see how this shakes out. Watch who gives them money.
