"I just want the American people to know I did my duty that day, President Trump was WRONG in saying that I had some right to overturn the election. That's completely false. He continues to repeat it. His allies in the media continue to repeat it and I'm not going to stand for it. It's not a belief. It's the law and the history of this country." Pence is finally growing a pair of balls. Better late than never.
upcoming August GOP debate. Let's see how he does. There are two camps represented, those that thing they can win by attacking Trump and those that are not going to directly attack Trump. Pence is going to try to ride the fence, a losing strategy in my opinion. Let's see what Pence's poll numbers are a week after the debate.
http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/mike-pence-announces-challenging-donald-trump-2024-presidential/story?id=99865841 "Mike Pence, kicking off 2024 campaign, suggests Trump can 'never' be president again" (June 7, 2023) . "... "The American people deserve to know that on that day, President Trump also demanded that I choose between him and the Constitution. Now, voters will be faced with the same choice. I chose the Constitution and I always will," Pence said, later noting how his son, a Marine, has sometimes reminded him they both made the same pledge as public servants. . ***** Without naming Trump specifically, Pence said that "anyone that puts themselves over the Constitution should never be president of the United States. And anyone who asked someone else to put them over the Constitution should never be president of the United States again." ***** " . Whatever Pence says during the debate might be interesting but I am more interested in what Pence says on the witness stand in Federal Court.

I highly doubt that the DoJ attorneys will ask Pence for his opinions on the war in Ukraine or on US support for Ukraine but Trump's attorneys might try to ask Pence about that on their cross examination. . Pence might reply that Tucker, despite knowing that it was false, was a major Fox proponent of The Big Lie. That then led to what happened at The Capitol on Jan 6 and also led to a $787 billion settlement with Dominion.

Re: My favorite Pence quote… …came when he was getting interviewed by Tucker. Tucker asked him if we should still be giving so much money to Ukraine when US cities are falling apart. Tucker then went on to give examples of how the cities are falling apart. Pence responded that he didn’t care about all that and that we need to give more money to Ukraine.
Another rhetorical question. He only said Hurd is a valuable truth-teller, like Christy and a few others. If he's on the debate state he's capable of damaging Trump. That's worth funding.
