Trump will not commit to supporting the 2024 GOP nominee. Trump told Nikki Haley she should run for president if she wanted to, but called her "overly ambitious." Trump is the only 2024 candidate to have declared that he's running for president, though former UN Ambassador Nikki Haley is expected to be next. "I don't want to say," Trump said. Hewitt on Thursday pressed Trump repeatedly about what his nicknames would be for potential 2024 challengers, but the former president wouldn't share them.
A "small number" of classified documents were discovered last week at former Vice President Mike Pence’s Indiana home, according to two letters Pence’s counsel sent to the National Archives obtained by NBC News on Tuesday. Pence's team “immediately” secured the classified documents in a locked safe, Jacob said. The transfer was facilitated by Pence’s personal attorney, who has experience in handling classified documents and was involved with the Jan. 16 discovery. Pence spokesman Devin O’Malley later told NBC News that “no potential classified documents” were found at the offices of Pence’s organization Advancing American Freedom after Pence’s team searched the offices and the former vice president’s home in Indiana. In a statement Tuesday, Comer said Pence reached out to the panel about classified documents found at his Indiana residence.
Former Vice President Mike Pence said voters will "have better choices" for a presidential candidate than Donald Trump, who announced his third bid for the office on Tuesday night from his Mar-a-Lago resort. "I think we’ll have better choices in the future," Pence told ABC's David Muir. Pence's latest comments come after months of distancing himself from Trump over his actions on Jan. 6. Asked at a Georgetown University event in October if he would support Trump if he becomes the GOP nominee for president, Pence said, “Well, there might be somebody else I’d prefer more." He appeared to edge closer to confirming plans for a 2024 run during a New Hampshire Institute of Politics “Politics & Eggs” event in August.

Trump proclaimed himself to be a "victim" during his 2024 campaign announcement Tuesday night. "We need more seriousness, less noise, and leaders who are looking forward, not staring in the rearview mirror claiming victimhood," Pompeo wrote on Twitter on Wednesday morning. Pompeo, who served as both CIA Director and secretary of state under Trump, is said to be mulling his own presidential campaign.

Today it’s Herschel Walker, but tomorrow it’s the American people.”“I’m on Herschel’s team — they picked the wrong Georgian to mess with," Scott said. National Republicans, including Scott, had rushed to defend Walker after the Daily Beast's reporting of the abortion allegations. The woman who alleged Walker paid for her abortion more than a decade ago also claimed she is the mother of one of his four children, The Daily Beast reported.
