Now that it’s 2023, the kickoff to the 2024 presidential will officially begin, likely sometime in the summer. With Trump already running for the 2024 election, Ron DeSantis is also expected to announce a big for president to challenge Trump. But who else is running? A list put forth by The Blaze will make you laugh, as if any of these RINOs have a shot against either Trump or DeSantis.
Mike Pence
Former Vice President Mike Pence, who served alongside Trump, has said that he believes there will be “better choices” than Trump — he has also said that “prayerful consideration” is being given to a 2024 White House bid “in our house.”Mike Pompeo
Former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, who served under Trump and also served as CIA director during a portion of Trump’s tenure, is also considering the possibility of a presidential run.“I haven’t decided whether I’m going to run, and my decision whether to run doesn’t depend on what lane I’m in or who else gets in the race,” he said, according to Semafor. “So I don’t think about, how do you differentiate or how do you go scramble for some thin sliver, how do you get in the lane. I simply think about: What are the things that can deliver good outcomes for the American people, and can I be the person who can actually help go deliver that? That’s how Susan and I are thinking about whether we’re going to do this. If we conclude it should be someone else, we’re going to go work really hard for her or him.”
