Former Vice President Mike Pence said that the American people are “looking for new leadership” when asked about Donald Trump’s 2024 presidential campaign.

Vice President Mike Pence thought his boss seemed discouraged. President Donald Trump had been impeached the previous day for inciting the Jan. 6 rioters who’d stormed the U.S. Capitol.
Finding the president in the back room of the Oval Office, Pence congratulated him for a video he’d tweeted out after the House voted, belatedly condemning the violence. The devoutly Christian vice president also reminded Trump that he was praying for him. “Don’t bother,” Trump said, according to Pence’s new memoir.
Thanking Trump for the privilege of serving with him, Pence said they would “just have to disagree on two things” – Jan. 6 and that Pence will never stop praying for Trump. “That’s right,” Trump responded with a smile. “Don’t ever change.”
