Mike Pence's Failed Campaign: A Thread to the Oval Office

Former Vice President Mike Pence has suspended his presidential campaign after months of struggling to gain traction in the GOP primary. Despite his long-held presidential ambitions, Pence faced a Republican electorate that had soured on his Reagan-era brand of politics. With donations sagging, Pence had recently used $150,000 of his own money to support his campaign, but it wasn't enough. Pence's resistance to overturning the 2020 election and his criticism of Trump and other GOP candidates further hindered his campaign. Despite enduring hostility from Trump's supporters, Pence continued his campaign with his wife by his side. While he did not endorse any candidate in his remarks, his presence may be felt in Trump's Jan. 6 trial and he is set to release a second book.
