Alyssa Farah says she thinks Pence will run for president in 2024
Former White House director of communications Alyssa Farah said Sunday she believes former Vice President Mike Pence would run against former President Trump should the two run in 2024.
“So I think that Pence is going to do it … based on my knowledge of him, and I think he could put up a formidable fight,” she added.
Farah, a longtime GOP aide, said other Republicans considering a run in 2024 include Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, who served under Trump.
“There’s this belief that people are just going to clear the field for Trump. I actually think some folks are teeing up to run. I think Pence could be one of them. I think DeSantis might be one of them. I think Mike Pompeo is looking at a political team and what that could look like, and it’s a good thing for the party,” Farah said.
When asked if she would vote for Trump if he wins the nomination, Farah said, “Absolutely not.”
“We’re going to need to have out these debates on the stage, by the way, of was the election stolen? And that’s going to be a tough question for some of these folks to answer because some have really toed the line of the big lie. So I’d love to see some folks run who are going to acknowledge the truth and the reality and actually just try to win over more voters,” she said.
