The Many Faces of Mike Pence: From Presidential Bid to Trump's Defender.
Mike Pence officially announced his candidacy for the Republican nomination in the 2024 presidential election, putting him up against former president Donald Trump. In a CNN town hall, Pence reasserted his conservative credentials on various issues but refused to say he would pardon Trump if he won the White House. Pence faces competition from other GOP candidates such as Ron DeSantis, Chris Christie, Tim Scott, and Nikki Haley. Southern Baptists, a core part of the white evangelical Christian bloc, are weighing their options in the GOP primary field. Pence called on the Department of Justice not to prosecute Trump for his alleged mishandling of classified documents, immediately after saying that everyone should be treated equally under the law.
