Former Vice President Mike Pence officially announced his run for the presidency on Wednesday. Speaking at a rally near Des Moines, Iowa, Pence portrayed his former boss as being unfit to serve, as he recounted Trump’s actions on January 6, 2021.

Mike Pence: “President Trump’s words were reckless. They endangered my family and everyone at the Capitol. But the American people deserve to know that on that day President Trump also demanded that I choose between him and the Constitution. Now voters will be faced with the same choice. I chose the Constitution. And I always will.”

Mike Pence also called for abortion to be banned nationwide. North Dakota Governor Doug Burgum also announced Wednesday he is running to be the Republican presidential nominee. Former New Jersey Governor Chris Christie announced his candidacy on Tuesday.
