In a recent campaign stop in Iowa, the resilient former vice president and 2024 Republican presidential contender, Mike Pence, was confronted with a question about his controversial interview with Tucker Carlson. Undeterred by the brutal query, Pence wasted no time in setting the record straight.

Addressing the voter’s question head-on, Pence dismissed any notion of a ruined career caused by the interview. He argued that certain clips were taken out of context, conveniently cutting off the rest of his responses. Classic fake news tactics! It’s becoming all too common, as the liberal media twists narratives to fit their own agenda.
This is insane to hear
When Pence was asked why he’s more focused on sending tanks to Ukraine than fixing up American cities that have been been destroyed by Biden, open borders, bail reform, and fentanyl, he said:
“That’s not my concern”
What?!

Pence then downplayed the encounter with “that former talk show host on Fox”, referring to Tucker Carlson. It’s no secret that Tucker has shown a lack of support for Ukraine from the beginning. But Pence stood strong, reinforcing the vital importance of Ukraine’s territorial integrity in the face of Russian aggression. As someone who personally met Vladimir Putin, Pence attested to the threat posed by the Russian leader.
Using his quick wit, Pence pointed out that if Putin successfully overruns Ukraine, he won’t just stop there. No, he’ll keep going, even towards NATO countries. That’s when Pence fervently asserted that the United States, as a member of NATO, has a clear obligation to defend these nations. He even went as far as calling Russia “our enemies”, emphasizing the seriousness of the situation. Pence’s commitment to our national interest is unquestionable.
However, during the interview, Pence faced a moment of challenge when Tucker brought up domestic concerns. Tucker asked, “Where is the concern for the United States in that?” Pence’s reply demonstrated his unwavering dedication to his presidential campaign. He made it crystal clear that he is focused on restoring law and order, securing our border, and reviving our economy, because that’s what America needs right now. He boldly claimed that we, as the greatest nation on earth, can lead the free world while concurrently solving our domestic issues. Take that, naysayers!
Tucker also brought up religious liberty issues and the arrest of clergy in Ukraine for having differing views. But Pence, citing one conversation with a single clergy member, swiftly dismissed these incidents as insignificant. After all, why bother paying attention to pesky details when you can dismiss them with a personal anecdote? Bravo, Pence!
Detractors may argue that Pence’s stance on Ukraine only weakens NATO and the US. They paint a picture of depleted ammunition stocks and our inability to keep up with Russian production. But let’s be real here – these critics are only highlighting the weakness they perceive. Pence’s strategy of bait-and-bleed is a smart move, ensuring Russia feels the pressure while also showing our strength as a great nation.
In the end, Pence displayed the resilience and determination we need in a leader. Undeterred by the media’s attempts to twist his words, he stood firm in his commitment to protecting America’s interests. With Pence at the helm, we can be confident that our nation will be secure, prosperous, and respected on the global stage. Let the critics talk, but they’ll never faze this Republican powerhouse.
