Trump’s former vice president also called the administration’s “anti-weaponization” fund “deeply offensive.”
Former Vice President Mike Pence said Sunday that President Donald Trump’s second administration has “departed” from traditional conservative principles.
Pence, who served as Trump’s vice president from 2017 to 2021, told NBC News’ “Meet the Press” that the administration is no longer committed to “the conservative agenda that has defined the Republican Party since the days of Ronald Reagan, and before that an agenda of American leadership, limited government, free market economics, the right to life.”
He’s wrong, of course. Trump is the purest expression of conservative principles we’ve ever seen.
Took “I got mine” to the next level.
He’s unpopular, which Republicans will insist means he’s not conservative enough
It’s weird that it took you so long to speak out. They tried to hang you Mike. You’re a spineless soulless amoral fuck regardless, but dude, come the fuck on
wow, took this long AFTER HIS GOONS RIOTED TO HANG YOU to make that connection mike?
goddamn I do believe pence may be dumber than trump.
He was riding the clown train hoping it would put him front and center when it failed. Not a horrible plan. But it didn’t go that way and now he will go down in history as one who assisted in bringing it to fruition.
he let jesus take the wheel and stopped even thinking
They have departed from any kind of principles. The administration is focused on corruption and grifting.
I dunno. They still seem pretty racist to me.
How brilliant. 10 years after the rest of us called it the alt-right. Ever heard of Liz Cheney?
Got something on your nose there, Mike.
Oh. It doesn’t come off. I see.
Republicans are so dumb
I wish this concept would die. The republicans who are in power, are doing exactly what they planned (project2025) by destroying the idea and function of a democratic working government for the people, grifting without consequences all along the way. Since that was the goal and its being achieved, they are HIGHLY SKILLFUL opponents who are currently winning. This makes everyone else spectating, wondering when things are going to be made right, the dumb ones. And its the second term. He is not in prison. HES THE PRESIDENT, again. As it is now, they outsmarted everyone, no matter how much that hurts the feelings of the spectators.
They aren’t smart, not even a little bit, they’re just playing on easy mode. There is nothing clever about what they’re doing, and in fact it’s pretty easy to grasp and is often incredibly public. The reason they keep winning anyway is because the citizens are lazy and ignorant, and most of the US are dumb as rocks even if they’re “educated”. Most people in general aren’t even that bright, it’s insane what they will fall for.
Not so much about being smarter/more skilled as it is about being shameless vermin willing to exploit, cheat, lie…their way through any barrier imaginable. It’s just a massive handicap fighting these demons “the right way”.
i don’t disagree, yet their goals are being met. They are normalizing this behavior globally. Surveillance state is set with full government support. Americans are no longer in Kansas.
cleans out ear with finger
Did you just hear about the surveillance state? It started back in the 1900’s and it wasn’t until 1978 that is was determined to even need a warrant to do it. This quickly became secret warrants that the public never gets to see.
Even when I was a kid back in the 1980’s project Echelon and Magic Lantern were considered conspiracy theories until decades later Snowden proved it was all true.
Have they? They have started doing it with no deception. They are just doing the bad stuff and not trying to hide it. Regressives have always said one thing and done another. Now they are just doing the hateful stuff without any speed bumps.
Fuck you. Trump is a SYMPTOM of all that went wrong during and after Reagan.
Lol, these clowns. They pushed for this. This monster was inevitable in their quest for populist control. The problem was it got away from them, so they all ran away and then acted like they had nothing to do with summoning it.
They embraced them whole hog. Ignorant turd.
the leaning tower of shit has never had any ‘principles’, conservative or otherwise—except those that fill his bank accounts with other peoples’ money.
Imagine if someone tried to have you murdered by a mob and this was the harshest criticism you could come up with.
IKR?
That guy is No True
Scotsman, oops, I mean, Conservative!– guy who barely escaped the noose.
I mean, it’s fucking wild how they treat this absolute fraud of a “businessman” with kid gloves.

Not like the first administration was any better Mike. But nice job trying to give yourself political cover for your blame in what has happened to this country over the last ~10 years. You might have done the right thing in the end, but you had a good 3.5 years before that to stiffen that back bone up and you didn’t until you saw the literal gallows sitting outside the senate offices.
