FAKE PRESIDENCY NEWS: Spokesperson confirms Mike Pence hasn’t filed to run for president in 2024

Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that Spokesperson confirms Mike Pence hasn’t filed to run for president in 2024. 

Mike Pence has just filed to run for President in 2024. 

This is the guy who said that DOJ charges against Trump for Jan 6th. would be “divisive”.  

This guy, like Trump, doesn’t belong anywhere near the White House again. He’s an enabler. Mike Pence’s spokesperson now says that although someone filed to run in 2024 under Pence’s name, it was not Pence, suggesting that this may be some weird prank. 

The 2024 election cycle is already starting off chaotic.

Mayer’s piece shows that behind the scenes, the vice president has made a huge mark on President Trump’s policy agenda, while putting himself in a good position for his own presidential ambitions. Mayer writes that Pence’s influence has shaped White House policies far more than that of other important members of the administration, including Breitbart executive chair Steve Bannon or Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner. In particular, Pence’s longstanding connection to libertarian megadonors Charles and David Koch — former political enemies of Trump — has helped shape the current White House.

Pence and Trump are two very different men. Pence is a devout evangelical who doesn’t dine alone with other women unless his wife is present. He made his name in conservative politics as a talk radio host and enacted hardline policies during his time as Indiana’s governor, mandating burials for fetuses and essentially allowing businesses to discriminate against gay people. Trump is a bombastic billionaire who famously bragged about groping women and publicly espoused pro-choice and pro-same-sex marriage views. Mayer’s piece includes moments where Trump mocked Pence’s socially conservative views and his tendency to pray in the White House.

Pence’s intense religious views have made him the butt of Trump’s jokes, according to Mayer’s piece. She details a moment when Trump made fun of Pence’s desire to get rid of the abortion protections in the landmark Roe v. Wade decision and said his vice president wanted to “hang” gay people:

During a meeting with a legal scholar, Trump belittled Pence’s determination to overturn Roe v. Wade. The legal scholar had said that, if the Supreme Court did so, many states would likely legalize abortion on their own. “You see?” Trump asked Pence. “You’ve wasted all this time and energy on it, and it’s not going to end abortion anyway.” When the conversation turned to gay rights, Trump motioned toward Pence and joked, “Don’t ask that guy — he wants to hang them all!”

Pence’s religion has also seeped into the White House, Mayer reports. Pence organizes a Bible study in the White House led by evangelical pastor Ralph Drollinger, who has written that women should “submit” to their husbands, described homosexuality as a “sin,” and called Catholicism a “false religion.” Administration members who attend include Education Secretary Betsy DeVos, CIA Director Mike Pompeo, and Attorney General Jeff Sessions, Mayer writes.
