In Chicago, Mike Pence delivers a withering rebuke of Biden’s economic policies, makes no direct references to Donald Trump
Sounding like a potential presidential candidate, former Vice President Mike Pence contended Monday that the nation’s economic woes were almost entirely the result of Democratic President Joe Biden’s policies, and told an audience at the University Club of Chicago that without a turnaround, Americans will “change leadership very soon.”
Pence has become a focal point of a House select committee’s investigation into the insurrection as the panel examines whether Trump knew his push for his vice president to stop the Electoral College vote count of states giving Biden the presidency was not legal. Pence refused to bow to Trump’s demands.in which he said he would not allow Democrats to use Jan. 6 “to distract attention from their failed agenda or to demean the intentions of 74 million Americans who rallied behind our cause.
“The truth is, the majority of Americans know that President Biden’s economic policies have failed utterly and completely and it is time for a change of direction for America,” Pence said. “The Biden administration squandered American prosperity faster than any other administration in the history of our country.”Pence said Biden’s blame of skyrocketing gas prices on Russian President Vladimir Putin’s “unconscionable invasion” of Ukraine was misplaced.
“Strong families make for strong communities and strong communities make for a strong America. We have to have an economy that works for American families,” he said. “I believe the highest priority must be to preserve and strengthen families. It’s foundational for society today. At its very core, it’s family that’s made this country great.”Pence also took a poke at Illinois, saying residents have seen the effects of high taxes and excessive business regulation.
“Truth is, though, the policies of the Biden administration aren’t going to cause jobs to move from your state to another state. They’re going to cause jobs to move from the United States to places like China.”
