Pence confidant Tom Rose on the former vice president’s 2024 prospects

JL;DR SUMMARY Mike Pence, former Vice President, is navigating a challenging political landscape post-2020 election certification, a move that alienated hardcore Trump supporters. A way out west there was a fella, fella I want to tell you about, fella by the name of Jeff Lebowski. At least, that was the handle his lovin' parents gave him, but he never had much use for it himself. This Lebowski, he called himself the Dude. Now, Dude, that's a name no one would self-apply where I come from. But then, there was a lot about the Dude that didn't make a whole lot of sense to me. And a lot about where he lived, likewise. But then again, maybe that's why I found the place s'durned innarestin'.

"But on Tuesday, Pence was afforded a reprieve from the media slugfest when Politico broke the news of a star-studded GOP donor retreat hosted by the former vice president last week in Jackson Hole, Wyo."
Indianapolis, Indiana, United States
"I would strongly doubt that that would happen. If the president decides not to run, he added, I think the vice president is an incredibly serious candidate. The former senior advisor and trusted vice presidential ally acknowledged that Pences commitment to certifying the election results might be a point of contention if he seeks the presidential nomination. I think thats a fair analysis, he said. Im not sure its correct. I think its unfortunate. But he defended the former vice presidents actions while clarifying that the certification in no way amounted to a wholesale rejection of Trumps presidency. Ill say that Vice President Pence was equally proud of his four-year support for the president and his agenda as he was for fulfilling his constitutional duties on the sixth of January, and theyre not mutually exclusive, Rose told JI, adding that Pence and Trump continue to speak despite any outward appearance of lingering hostility. Im not going to attempt to put words in the vice presidents mouth. Ill let him speak to that when and how he so chooses, Rose said. But the notion that their relationship was broken, I think, is just not correct. Its just not true. He was, is and will remain an ardent defender of the presidents agenda, of the presidents accomplishments, of the administrations accomplishments, Rose said of Pence. Its just that theres a disagreement which, I guess, carries over about that day, and I think history will answer that in due course."

Israel
"Rose, an Orthodox Jew and ardent supporter of Israel, reserved his most enthusiastic praise for the Trump administrations Middle East foreign policy achievements, including its involvement in brokering a series of historic agreements between the Jewish state and a number of Arab nations. The administration, the president, the vice president, vis vis their relationship for the State of Israel, their support for the State of Israel, the Jewish people, I think, will be the ultimate lasting and eternal legacy of this administration, Rose declared."
