"Trump Urges Pence to Endorse Him, Despite Past Controversy"

Former President Donald Trump called on his former vice president, Mike Pence, to endorse his bid for the White House after Pence dropped out of the race for the Republican nomination. Trump, who once appeared to defend the threats against Pence during the January 6 insurrection, criticized his former VP for being disloyal. Trump also spoke at the Republican Jewish Coalition leadership summit, where he accused President Biden of not doing enough to combat antisemitism and reaffirmed his support for Israel. Other 2024 presidential candidates at the summit, including Nikki Haley and Ron DeSantis, positioned themselves as strong allies of Israel and condemned calls for a ceasefire in Gaza.
