Mike Pence Drops out of 2024 Race at Republican Jewish Coalition

Joel B. Pollak 28 Oct 2023

LAS VEGAS, Nevada — Former Vice President Mike Pence told the annual leadership summit of the Republican Jewish Coalition that he was dropping out of the 2024 race for the Republican nomination for president.

Pence said that after traveling the country, he had realized that his time to lead was not now.

“To the American people, I say: this is not my time, but it is still your time.”

Pence urged voters to choose a candidate who would appeal to the “better angels of our nature, and not only lead us to victory, but lead our nation back to civility.”

He thanked the audience for the “greatest honor” of serving as vice president.

Earlier in his speech, Pence said the U.S. should support Israel throughout its fight against Hamas until the Palestinian terror group is destroyed “once and for all.”

Pence condemned the October 7 terror attack by Hamas, and declared why America stood with Israel:

    We stand with Israel for the same reason the American people have always stood with Israel. We stand with Israel because her cause is our cause. Her values are our values. Her fight is our fight. We stand with Israel because we believe in right over wrong, in good over evil. And as believing Americans have for generations, we stand with Israel because Israel’s very existence is proof that God’s promises are true.

Vivek or Nikki?

     Gee, maybe he'll realize that his political career is over.

[mountaineer]

Oh yeah, I forgot about him. And Christie.

Pence recognized he had no path to victory. And yet @AsaHutchinson (0.6%) pathetically refuses to suspend his campaign, even though he has ~6X LESS support than Pence had.

Maybe he and Lezzo Liz can team up for a losers tour.

I'm tired of looking at those two foreigners.  Hope they both are gone by thanksgiving.

With all the bad press and his poll numbers dropping, I think we'll see DeSantis drop out.

It will be interesting to see if Trump will continue to have states that won't allow him to be on the ballot. There's also the issue of all the felony charges against him.  I still don't think he'll be the nominee.

I think Haley will be the GOP nominee.

Just my opinion.

Christie is strictly in it for the $$ and he won't drop out until the cash flow stops.

I have no doubt that if Trump were to win in 2024, and Kamala Harris did what you demanded Mike Pence  do, you would flood this forum with angry TruthSocial tweets

Pence, like Biden in 2016, did not want to set a very bad precedent. That’s more important than Trump’s ego and soothing your butt hurt.

Somehow, I just do not see Kamala having any problems with the fraud states from last time, unless they failed to go Democrat. Calling into question is done from the Floor, entertaining those concerns is just part of the procedure (which was not observed on 1/6).

Nah. He's paying the price for not being Donald Trump.

I mean, even Ron DeSantis isn't getting any respect right now, and he's as good as we have on the bench. What makes Pence think he's going to be any different? There is literally nothing Mike Pence could have done that would have convinced the Trump base to vote for him.

The people that make up the GOP primary base—whose stellar record includes such conservative luminaries as John McCain, Mitt Romney and Donald Trump (as if they've consistently chosen the worst possible candidate the past 20 years)—are sticking with Trump, and quite frankly, they're not listening to any arguments other than Trump's. Remember, he won the primary last time on low-information voters... the ignorant, the ones who so distrust any form of media that doesn't fit their preconceived opinions that they will flat-out reject anything that doesn't affirm them (a trait that gives them a LOT in common with the left). There are a lot of ignorant people in this country.

Sure it was.   The objections to counting the electoral votes of Pennsylvania and Arizona were debated, voted upon, and rejected by both the House and Senate before the count was finalized, exactly as required by law.

That process was suspended during the riots but followed to the letter and completed that evening.

So you say, but did you witness what actually happened?

[Maj. Bill Martin]

So you say, but did you witness what actually happened?

Yes, I did.  It was broadcast live on C-SPAN the evening of January 6th through the very early morning of January 7th, with Pence himself presiding over the Senate objections/debates.   And I've posted all that evidence before here, multiple times, including the links to the actual C-Span debates and voting that some say never occured.  Also posted the reason why so many people on the right falsely believe it did not happen.

Here is a link to one of the multiple times I've posted all that evidence here.  And every time I post it, the response is just...crickets:

https://www.gopbriefingroom.com/index.php/topic,510796.0.html#msg2895085

For example (if you don't want to read all that), here is a direct link to the Senate debate/vote on Cruz's objection to certification of the Arizona's electors:

It is damn depressing to realize that so many conservatives are as wedded to their version of a reality that did not exist as are many on the left.  As long as it supports the narrative, folks apparently don't care whether it is true or not

I always thought we were the side of facts over emotion.  Demoralizing to realize that we aren't.
