The rumor that former Vice President, Mike Pence, filed to run for President picked up a lot of steam on Twitter on Monday night. According to Fox News, a spokesman for Pence stated it was false and suggested it was just someone trying to ‘prank’ the media. You may read the Fox News piece here.
Twitter did not seem to care if it was true, it seemed most users just wanted to make their opinions regarding Pence known.
They said Mike Pence just registered to run for President.
He said he’d only run if God told him to.
I don’t know why God would want to see Mike humiliate himself like that, but okay Mike!

Ouch. Perhaps a little harsh, but from reading many of the comments we think she is right. Pence does not look popular. It did not seem to matter if a person identified as MAGA or not, the overwhelming sentiment was that nobody cares and nobody wanted to vote for him.
BREAKING: No one actually cares whether or not Mike Pence is running for President in 2024 because he has no chance of winning.

Does Mike Pence know he actually has a 0% chance of becoming President
— Jordan Rachel (@TheJordanRachel) December 26, 2022
Do you agree Mike Pence has less than 0% chance at winning the presidency?

100% AGAINST Mike Pence – for anything,
EVER https://t.co/tkuSBz6Pix— AvaArmstrong, 🇺🇸Author (@MsAvaArmstrong) December 26, 2022
I rather vote for the fly that landed on Mike Pence’s head than vote for him.

When a fly is considered a better option you may need to do some revamping of your image before running for anything.
Mike Pence had someone file for him to gauge the interest.
Let me save you time: It’s zero.
— Michael J. Morrison (@OfficeOfMike) December 26, 2022
We could get on board with that. Gauging interest is an important tool for politicians, but if they read most of the Twitter comments, they should bow out now.
Mike Pence can run to the bathroom, he can run for President, he can run down his street.
I really don’t care.
— Brigitte Gabriel (@ACTBrigitte) December 27, 2022
We think Pence should consider a whole different career outside of politics. He does not have the charisma needed to overcome his current image issues. Even people who are not major MAGA fans are not thrilled about him.
Mike Pence is running for President in 2024…….
He has no shot. Complete and total fundraising game/waste of donor money scheme……The End!

Pence team says it isn't real so I deleted my other tweet.
But it begs the question of who made a Mike Pence for President filing with the FEC today lol https://t.co/yrzRs602Sv
— Greg Price (@greg_price11) December 26, 2022
That’s a good question. Who did file and why? Was it to gauge the interest as the one tweet suggested or maybe it was just playing a prank on the media? Who knows! Either way, it certainly gave Twitter a lot to talk about.
I'm no political strategist.
But I'll say this.
Mike Pence will NEVER win an election again UNLESS he runs as a Democrat— The Win Doctor (@Windoctorx) December 26, 2022
We are not political strategists either, but we have followed politics for a very long time and we agree! Both he and Liz Cheney may have to switch parties to get anywhere near holding a federal or state office again, but that would be an uphill battle for them as well.
Now they're saying Mike Pence did not file to run for President… smart to not waste his money.

Mike Pence is irrelevant
— Anthony Sabatini (@AnthonySabatini) December 26, 2022
Welp, that is a nice summary. Pence is fairly irrelevant. Even as Vice President we can not say he added anything interesting to most conversations. He is about as vanilla as vanilla can be. Most people do not hate him, but nobody necessarily LIKES him.
We understand Former President Trump has already thrown his hat in the ring for 2024, but personally, we hope everyone else just lays low and we do not have to listen to any of the insanity about the primaries until at least the summer of 2023.
