Former Indiana governor and candidate for Republican nomination tells Fox News decision ‘should come as no surprise’

Mike Pence will not endorse for president Donald Trump, the man he served as vice-president for four years but whose supporters chanted for Pence to be hanged as they attacked Congress on January 6.

“It should come as no surprise that I will not be endorsing Donald Trump this year,” the former Indiana governor and former candidate for the Republican presidential nomination told Fox News on Friday.

Asked why, given that he previously promised to endorse the eventual nominee, Pence mentioned 6 January 2021, the day a mob attacked Congress and Trump was reported to have told aides Pence “deserved” to be hanged for refusing to block certification of Joe Biden’s 2020 election win.

    Just imagine, as we look at all of Trump’s unresolved court cases, that Pence not endorsing him may still end up being the full extent of Trump’s consequences for attempting to overthrow the US government.

      Implying that there’s only one side to fall off of? Nah man this timeline is literally Rainbow Road 250cc mirrored online. There’s no way to win cause the cheaters control the win ratio.
