“I came here to say it’s become clear to me that it’s not my time. So after much prayer and deliberation, I have decided to suspend my campaign for president effective today,” Pence said, to audible gasps from the audience gathered at the Venetian resort on the Las Vegas strip.
So he eventually realized that he wasn’t winning a popularity contest with the people who were looking to hang him. It really shouldn’t have taken this long.
He overestimated how many old school Republicans there were. Nope, most of the party wanted Trumpism all along.
Additionally he underestimates how much the very few “old school Republicans” that do remain actually pay attention to politics or even current events at all. I’d suspect most of those voters are the type of folks that just show up and pull the R lever without ever thinking about it
Yep. It turns out the True Conservatives ™ and the freewheeling “independents” are things that barely even exist, no matter how much the likes of David Brooks wants to magic them into being a majority in this country by feverish writing another column.
Some people want to hang him, everybody else hates him too.
The prayer took much longer than the deliberation which took about 12 seconds.
it’s past 14 weeks he should be forced to carry it to term
If only I lived in Texas, I could make $10,00 right now.
The only acceptable time to snitch.
It’s a shame. That recent picture of him speaking to half a dozen people in an Iowa drugstore was really inspirational.
Very reminiscent of Jeb.
“Please clap.”
You mean Jeb!
JEB!
You casual.
Either we have 2 Mike Pence fans here, or there were 2 who didn’t get the sarcasm.
That was hilarious.
I thought he was gonna hang in there
I mean, that big crowd did want to see him suspended
Took me a minute, ngl
I see what you did there.
Lol!
Watch him turn around and support the guy who wanted to kill him.
100%
Imagine praying on this
That’s really the weirdest thing about these performative Jesus people. One, Jesus said to shut the fuck up about your supposed faith and not display it in public in an attempt to seem pious. But anyway, he can’t work it out logically? He needs supernatural inspiration to make any decision?
Indeed, if they listened to their OWN religion, they’d literally get back in the closet, but they chose to follow the likes of James Robison:
I am sick and tired of hearing about all of the radicals and the perverts and the liberals and the leftists and the Communists coming out of the closets! It is time for God’s people to come out of the closets, out on the porches, and change America! We must do it!
I’d rather they go back to the closet, if they ever were in the closet at all. As instructed by their OWN holy book they talk about so much. How many of them have read it?
But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.
Modern christians are the hypocrites the New Testament warns us about. Actual Christians who adhered to the principles of Jesus would be wonderful people.

They’re out there. They just aren’t spewing verbal diarrhea all over everything all of the time like these asshats.

Why didn’t he just pray on it sooner if it was the Lords plan?
Jesus was still feeling out the poll numbers, etc…and hadn’t decided until now.
For an omniscient and unchanging god, he sure does seem to not know things and change his mind based on human actions.
Something about Pence’s campaign being half a mill in debt helped God focus.
Can’t tell which is worse. Either:
- God: “bro nobody wants you to be prez just stop”
- Brain thinking to itself: “bro nobody wants you to be prez just stop”

A reference that never gets old
Just like Jeb’s presidential campaign.
Not sure who you’re referring to. Are you thinking of Jeb! perchance?
He understood that MAGA hated him.
I had my suspicions when they called for his murder during the capitol insurrection.
Took Mikey over two years to realize.
I guess we won’t have a First Lady called Mother. Oh well.
I’m annoyed with you mother. Not just annoyed, angry. I’m a grown man now, and I can run my own life!
I just want to know what will happen when Trump is convicted if it happens before the republican convention. Yes, he might be out on appeal, but if itbis a state charge and a handful of states say he cannot be on the general ballot, what is the gop leadership going to do? Go with the runner up?
Probably still support him, and try to win on elections in large states and if that doesn’t work, they’ll try to overthrow the government like last time.

None of these shitbirds stand a chance against daddy trump
Probably just counting on him getting locked up tbh
Shhhh 🤫
He was running?
Yes, away from the guys trying to hang him.
His sister couldn’t win South Carolina, so…
“Mike Pence Hangs It Up” would also have been a good headline for this.
Maybe just “Mike Pence Hangs” and then start with article with “It up.”
Pence was probably the last to figure out that this was inevitable.
One less fascist running for President.
Thankfully we have Biden running so we will always have at least one fascist
They make it so easy to figure out who to block, don’t they?
