People are saying Pence's political career is over, since he's both too tainted by associating with Trump for 4 years and didn't follow Trump to the bitter end in the last 4 weeks, but I disagree.
--He's an immensely talented and smooth right-wing BS-selling artist, as proven in both Vice-Presidential debates.
--It appears he managed to serve Trump while insulating himself all his presidency's main scandals. Complicit, sure. But an active conspirator? Doesn't appear so as yet.
--He still has MAGA credibility among Republicans and right-leaning independence who, like him, didn't drink the full kool-aid on the election fraud garbage.
--He's best-positioned to lead the resistance against any future attempt by Trump to reign over the GOP or establish a third-party.
--He's more experienced at this point, and just inherently more likeable than, Hawley, Cruz and the like.
We'll certainly grab the popcorn and see!
