Pence Tries to Distance Himself From Fauci ‐ But Is It Too Late?

[Amer. Spectator] Former Vice President Mike Pence has been on a whirlwind media tour over the past week. He has hit CBS News, ABC News, NBC News, Fox News, CNN, and more since the release of his new book, So Help Me God, on Nov. 15.

The tour is either a test run to determine his chances of success in 2024 — or the unofficial beginning of his presidential campaign.

Pence has said that a 2024 bid is a possibility and that he will prayerfully make the decision with his family over the holidays. He has declined to support former President Donald Trump’s run for office, saying in an interview with ABC News, "I think we’ll have better choices."....

Pence, though he has endeared himself to the Left through his decision to refuse Trump’s demands that he overturn the 2020 election during Congress’ counting of the electoral votes, has encountered pushback from the Right over his record on COVID as the leader of the White House Coronavirus Task Force. His critics argue that Pence ceded too much power to Dr. Anthony Fauci and other members of the task force, such as Deborah Birx, to call for business, school, and workplace closures that gravely damaged America.

This week, Pence took the first steps toward distancing himself from the vilified Fauci and defending his record on COVID in an interview on NBC News’ Meet the Press.

Pence drew a distinction between Fauci under the Trump administration and Fauci under the Biden administration. Under his leadership, Pence argued, Fauci was given a limited role, but, under Biden, Fauci was allowed to exercise total power on COVID-related matters....

Pence screwed the political career pooch, when he turned on Trump. He hosed 70+ Million votes.

Sure, they will use him to deliver a few talking points here and there. But he is no longer politically trusted by either side.

#2 He appears to be an establishment Politician who can’t make a good decision. He and Liz Cheney can start their own ‘principled political party’ with Larry Hogan.

#3 Another FAILURE by Trump (via his Deep State capo). Trump was elected (like Zelenskyy, lol) because he was not an establishment politician, so he went ahead and asked an establishment politician to be his VP. Trump's decision to bring on John Bolton still mystifies me.

#4 Trump put Pence in charge of the Covid response.
Pence did nothing. There is no way to distance from that.

If he'd handled it properly here is a chance Trump would have stayed away from those Covid briefings and avoided a lot of trouble.

#5 As effective as the present VP on the border crisis.

#6 Pence is as relevant as a smushed skunk on a rural state road. Media keeps showing Pence to us in hopes that they are damaging Trump. Essentially, they are attempting to rob us at plastic spork point.

#7 He appears to be an establishment Politician who can’t make a good decision. He and Liz Cheney can start their own ‘principled political party’ with Larry Hogan.

Don't forget Pierre Delecto and Lisa Murkowski.

#8 Success has 1,000 fathers while failure is an orphan. Pence is not the only person trying to distance himself from the train wreck that was the COVID response.

All of a sudden NO ONE is responsible for any of the disastrous decisions that ruined the economy and enabled the most comprehensive voter fraud effort in history.
