Did Mike Pence just doom his 2024 chances?
CNN
At a campaign stop in New Hampshire on Thursday night, former Vice President Mike Pence defended his actions on January 6 and, in the process, may well have doomed (or at the very least hamstrung) his chances of emerging as the Republican presidential nominee in 2024.
"January 6 was a dark day in the history of our US Capitol," Pence said. "That same day we reconvened the Congress and did our duty. You know, President Trump and I have spoken several times since we left office and I don't know if we'll ever see eye to eye on that day." Pence is, of course, right. The violent insurrection at the US Capitol, which left more than 100 police officers injured and five people dead, were a cataclysm the likes of which American democracy has rarely seen.More Related News
