Mike Pence is the Republican party’s big hope for 2024

Wednesday night s kickoff episode of the Mike and Mala show wasn t just the soon-to-be-forgotten sole vice presidential debate of 2020. No, it was something far more important: the first exhibition game of Campaign 2024.

Whether Donald Trump wins or loses on Nov. 3, Pence is in a stronger position than anybody to be the GOP s next batter up. He s got name recognition, all the experience you could ask for, and he s battle-tested. He might be the only figure who can unite the Normies and the Trumpies both the boring, staid suburbanites in khakis who vote GOP because they like normal stuff like low taxes, light regulation and cultural conservatism; and the in-your-face guys who ride Harleys with MAGA flags flying and love Trump mainly because he owns the libs and makes fun of Jim Acosta.
