Discussion: Indiana GOP Chairman: Gov. Pence Won't Run For President

Discussion for article #236515

2015 was a bumpy year for Pence. He fell into the national spotlight when he pushed a controversial religious freedom bill into law. That effort sparked a national backlash, including from criticism from top business executives. Pence eventually caved to pressure and moved to clarify the law. He later hired a public relations firm to repair the state’s image

Don’t do stoopid stuff!!

He won’t be a governor next term, either.

This will have no impact on his chances of being elected.

Not what I’m hearing. Mike is toast.

TPM:

Pence had been mentioned as a potential Republican presidential candidate but lately he had not been taking the other steps indicating serious plans to throw his hat into the ring.

Damn.

I don’t know how much money Indiana lost due to Pence’s absurd discriminatory religious freedom law. Nor do I know how many people Pence managed to offend beyond “a lot”.

But the expression of pained cognitive dissonance on the faces of his fellow campaigners at the GOP Presidential Debates as they struggle between totally agreeing with Pence while simultaneously hoping no one asks them about it? That would have been: Priceless.
