Mike Pence is done running for president — but he’s not done fighting for the soul of the GOP
Former Vice President Mike Pence reaffirmed Monday that his presidential aspirations are behind him, using his book promotion to call on Republicans to recommit to core conservative values. Pence’s new book, What Conservatives Believe: Rediscovering the Conservative Conscience, urges that traditional conservative values are needed to address today’s issues. The former vice president explained that a candidate who campaigns on these issues will “carry the day,” citing Luke Combs’s lyrics to take his name out of the conversation.
