Mike Pence Reveals He's Never Spoken to VP JD Vance!
Former Vice President Mike Pence stated that he has never spoken with JD Vance, the current Vice President under Donald Trump. The revelation came during a recent interview on MS Now.
Lack of Communication
Pence, 66, shared that he and Vance have not communicated since Vance assumed the vice-presidential role. During the interview on Way Too Early With Ali Vitali, Pence mentioned that Vance had been a strong critic of the previous administration.
Ali Vitali, the host, was surprised by the lack of contact between them, highlighting that Pence is uniquely positioned to relate to Vance's situation as Trump's vice president.
Past Criticisms and Changes
Before joining Trump’s team, Vance was sometimes critical of Trump’s leadership. During a past debate, Vance acknowledged his earlier criticisms and admitted he was wrong about Trump.
Pence noted this shift in Vance's political alignment but did not express any resentment towards his changing views. He emphasized the importance of focusing on political goals over individual leaders for future elections.
Vance's Recent Support for Trump
Despite past criticism, Vance has defended Trump amidst recent controversies involving international relations and disputes with religious figures. He suggested that religious leadership should refrain from commenting on public policy issues.
Vance's conversion to Catholicism occurred in 2019 at age 35, marking a significant personal and spiritual transformation for him after an upbringing in an evangelical family.
