VDare's Washington Watcher II on whether Donald Trump regrets taking
Jared Kushner's advice to downplay the National Question on the

center peace of his campaign against Ron DeSantis, Tim Scott, Mike
Pence, Doug Burgum, Chris Christie, Ron DeSantis, Larry Elder, Nikki

| Of the three candidates who declared last week for the 2024 GOP
| presidential nomination, former Vice President Mike Pence might seem
| the best qualified--which isn't saying a whole lot [Pence announces
| 2024 White House run, arguing Trump 'should never' be president
| again, by Veronica Stracqualursi, CNN, June 7, 2023]. Former New
| Jersey Governor Chris Christie's best days lie far in the past,
| while North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum has zero name recognition beyond
| his home state. Pence has high name recognition, and significant
| support among donors, evangelicals, and the party Establishment.
| Despite polling behind Nikki Haley, high unfavorability ratings, and
| Trump's relentless animosity, he might have a shot. Assuming that,
| the important question for immigration patriots is his immigration
| record. Here, despite positive changes recently, the key fact is
| that Pence betrayed immigration patriot Tom Tancredo to support
| Amnesty during the Bush Blight. For that reason alone, he can never
| be trusted.

"America First Policy Institute is a complete joke run by the worst
people from the Trump administration. Naturally, it's one
organization that is rumored to be talking with Mitch McConnell
about the post-midterm GOP agenda." - Pedro Gonzalez <URL:
