**Mike Pence Sets Sights on Presidency: Pence Enters an Expanding GOP Field, Challenging Trump for the Nomination**
In a major political move, former Vice President Mike Pence has filed to run for president, marking the beginning of what is sure to be a heated race for the GOP nomination. With an announcement event slated for Wednesday in Iowa, Pence emerges as a strong contender joining an expanding landscape of Republican candidates for the White House.
Having served as vice president under Donald Trump, Mike Pence’s decision to run for the presidency signals a significant challenge for the former president. Despite their partnership in the past, especially during the 2020 election, Pence’s record as Indiana governor and member of the U.S. House of Representatives positions him as a credible nominee against his former running mate.
However, Pence is not the only Republican entering the race. Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie and current North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum are also expected to announce their candidacies this week. They will be joining an already packed field featuring notable figures such as Donald Trump, Nikki Haley, Vivek Ramaswamy, Larry Elder, Sen. Tim Scott, former Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson, and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis.
True to form, Trump has not shied away from expressing his thoughts on the growing competition, dubbing Christie as “Sloppy Chris Christie” and DeSantis as “DeSanctimonious” and “DeSanctus.” Regardless of the jabs, all the candidates will face unique challenges and opportunities on the road to winning the Republican primary.
On the other side of the aisle, President Joe Biden will be fighting for re-election, contending with challengers such as Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Marianne Williamson. The possibility of Trump winning the GOP nomination may set the stage for an intense rematch of the 2020 election between him and Biden.
As each candidate begins to make their case to the American people, they will have the opportunity to share their vision and plans during the first Republican primary debate on August 23. The Republican National Committee has set a clear rule for participation in the debate requiring every hopeful to sign a pledge, committing to back the eventful GOP nominee.

what kind of a joke it is? To my knowledge he was shot dead, when being apprehended - besides photo is definitely not him....... But then Biden is also dead and is played by his brother with poorly fitting mask - is not all this BS getting on your nerves a bit? Am getting tired myself.

Getting silly now.
What a waste of time! No one but his imediate family is going to vote for Pence.
Trouble is we don't know who is real any more so many clones in the race.. Biden has three to my knowledge...what a joke American politics has become.
Pence has about the same personal charism as a refrigerator. But he think that he has the intelligence to win an election? well, that's true the Democrat opposition is rather weak in the person of Joe Biden, but what about the steam roller Donald Trump ?
