Ich erinnere mich an Zeiten, als US-Vizepräsidenten mit solchen Typen keine Interviews geführt hätte. Selbst Mike #Pence hätte sicher davor zurückgeschreckt. Nicht so #JDVance :
"Vance made the comments in an interview with 'manosphere' comedian Theo Von, who last month joked about snorting drugs off a mixed-race baby and the sexuality of men in the US navy when he opened for Trump at a military base in Qatar."

#MikePence also said he sees some of #Trump’s actions as sharp breaks from what he thought were the successes of their admin. That includes “wavering support for #Ukraine” in its war w/ #Russia & “marginalizing the right to life” that #Pence said followed #RFKJr’s selection as #HHS secy.
…watching Trump’s return to #power from the sidelines, Pence said he plans to make a public case on those issues—in part so that Trump might hear arguments those in his WH aren’t making.
#MikePence criticized #Trump’s across-the-board #tariffs on Monday, arguing that a looming “price shock” to the #economy & potential shortages will lead Americans to “demand a different approach.”
In an interview w/ CNN, #Pence rebuffed Trump’s recent comments that #children in the #UnitedStates will have to make do with fewer toys.

Fmr VP #MikePence repeatedly invoked the #Constitution & said it is what “binds us all together”after receiving the #JFK Profile in Courage Award.
#Pence received the award for his refusal to go along w/ #Trump’s efforts to remain in office after losing the #2020election. The award recognizes Pence “for putting his life & career on the line to ensure the constitutional transfer of presidential power on #Jan6, 2021,” the JFK Library Foundation said.

Mike #Pence rebukes Trump over tariffs and ‘wavering’ support for Ukraine - https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/may/05/pence-trump-tariffs-ukraine "Former vice-president says tariffs ‘not a win for the American people’ and predicts public pressure will grow" always was one of the more rational
@KrissyKat @LaNaehForaday @amydiehl Oh yes, I remember that. I remember the gymnastics #Pence went through trying to explain how the #RFRA wasn’t discrimination. That was supposed to be his political death sentence, until it wasn’t.
Bitte unterscheiden zwischen den Evangelisten (den Autoren der Evangelien) und den Evangelikalen (US-Rechtsprotestanten).
Und doch gab es auch hier Widerstand, u.a. der Evangelikale und frühere US-Vizepräsident Mike #Pence stellte sich mutig gegen den Putschversuch von Donald #Trump. Auch in der Beurteilung US-amerikanischer Religionen funktioniert kein einfacher Gut-Böse-#Dualismus...

Ja, an #Trump scheiden sich auch in den Kirchen, Religionen und Weltanschauungen die Geister. Auch & gerade weil es dem beliebten Links-Rechts-Dualismus nicht entspricht: Viele Säkulare schlossen sich Trump an, sein evangelikaler Vize Mike #Pence aber stand zur US-Verfassung und zentralen Werten. Wer nicht Linksaußen isoliert bleiben möchte, der wage Dialog für echte Vielfalt. Empfehle ich.

今天Guardian報道了Pence的臺灣之旅。
提到了Pence給WashingtonPost寫的文章,
這篇文章裡面有些話要留意一下。
Pence作為共和黨人,他應該對自己黨內的情況是瞭解的。
這樣的話是不會隨便說說的。
至於Trump再次上臺後,對臺和對中的政策到底會是怎樣。
還是要一步一步具體再看。
Pence的原文部分如下,全文在下方。
"...a new and troubling strain of isolationism is emerging within the Republican Party that advocates turning our backs on Taiwan and other allies. This new isolationism, masquerading as realism, dismisses the strategic imperatives..."

Let's hope we don't have to break these #Captcha 's out again in 4 years
I remember what I saw on #Jan6th
#January6thInsurrection was on the television, *live*
#Congress went into lockdown & #Pence knew better than to get into the car they sent for him
#MoscowMitch called it disgraceful & many #Corporations suspended #donations to the #GOP
However #CorporateMedia massages this history, I was a witness & I will never forget
Former vice-president #Pence opposes #Kennedy as health secretary, citing #abortion views - https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/live/2024/nov/15/donald-trump-rfk-jr-matt-gaetz-us-politics-live?page=with:block-673765748f087357b482966c#block-673765748f087357b482966c an interesting wrinkle emerges...
#JackSmith filing p.142 (cont.)
“Upon receiving a phone call alerting him that #Pence had been taken to a secure location, P15 [Nicholas Luna, WH aide] rushed to the dining room to inform the defendant in hopes that the defendant would take action to ensure Pence's safety. Instead, after PI5 delivered the news, the defendant looked at him & said only, "#SoWhat?".
Mike Pence took notes about Trump's conspiracy. And Jack Smith has them.

#Trump directly caused #FakeElectors to meet in various states. He publicly berated #MikePence for not going along w/his plot to overturn the results of the #election, & whipped up the #Jan6 crowd against #Pence when they stormed the Capitol on Jan 6, 2021, in an attempt to stop #Congress’ confirmation of #Biden’s Electoral College victory. Over 140 #law enforcement officers were injured in the Trump-inspired melee.
