Mike Pence quietly lays the groundwork for a post-Trump future



Mike Pence stuck his head up this week to take a whack at Trumpism, urging Republicans to reject “protectionist tariffs” and “isolationism” while “unashamedly” recommitting to anti-abortion positions.

It’s a sign of what he’s up to behind the scenes as well.



The former vice president is laying the groundwork for a party that could move on after the election from Donald Trump’s populism and protectionism. Sometimes that means being a rare voice of public dissent, at other times it means quietly trying to recruit allies to his cause who might be more willing to join him on specific policy or political fights.

“We’re trying to plant a flag for conservatism and believe that many of our traditional conservative groups have become far more enamored with populism these days and walked away from those principles,” Marc Short, Pence’s longtime advisor, told Semafor.

I thought this was.the babylon. He was chosen V.P because he was an Establishment politician. Trump won in 2016 so he fullfilled his duty. After that his value decreased significantly.

You know the world has gone crazy when the guy that is more far conservative than Trump is called the RINO.

He knows MAGA's time is at an end. He's trying to salvage what's left of the party he knew.
Unfortunately, that party is gone..for good. There's no coming back from MAGA.

The last real conservative President we had was Eisenhower.
"Conservatives" in the last four decades plus....haven't "conserved" anything.
