Mike Pence / Meet The Press
Former vice-president Mike Pence has ruled out another run for the presidency.
In an interview with NBC’s Kristen Welker, Pence said he wanted to focus on policy and championing “conservative values” rather than embark on another ill-fated campaign.
“I don’t see that in my future,” Pence said.. “I don’t see it, but we’ll keep standing for everything we’ve always stood for, and we’ll let the future take care of itself.”
“I want to be a voice for conservative values. I want to be a voice for the policies and liberties enshrined in the Constitution of the United States,” he continued.
“I want to be a champion of the conservative cause, and that’s where I’ll stay focused, and we’ll let the future take care of itself.”
Having once been a possible successor to Trump, Pence betrayed the conservative movement on January 6th, 2021 when he refused to challenge the results of the 2020 presidential election, despite the widespread evidence of fraud that tilted the race in favor of Joe Biden.
Pence ran for the presidency against President Trump in 2024, although dropped out before the primaries after failing to ever poll in double digits.
He later refused to endorse Trump over Kamala Harris, despite previously pledging to do so.

Nevertheless, he defended his record in the previous Trump administration.
“We were different men, different personalities, but we developed a kind of relationship where President Trump was not just my president — he was my friend,” Pence said.
“I couldn’t be more proud of the record of the Trump-Pence administration.
”I mean, it didn’t end the way I wanted it to, but what we were able to do to rebuild our military, to revive our economy, to appoint conservatives to our courts that gave us a new beginning for the right to life and upheld religious liberty and all are going to be a source of great satisfaction for the rest of my life,” he continued.
Mike Pence just has to weigh in:
Kristen Welker: “Do you think President Trump should accept a military aircraft from Qatar?”
Pence: “The very idea that we would accept an Air Force One from Qatar is inconsistent with our security, with our intelligence needs. My hope is the… pic.twitter.com/SGxOABEjMQ

Despite Pence’s belief in conservative values, the only people who still respect him are part of the Democratic Party machine.
Just last week, he collected a “Profile in Courage” award from the Democratic-aligned John F. Kennedy Library for his January 6th betrayal.
“Our institutions held that day, not because of any one person, but because leaders in both political parties, Republicans and Democrats, did their duties,” Pence declared with his usual pomposity.
