Pence’s post questioning Trump’s tariff policy
Pence, a traditional establishment Republican, has always emphasized a strong national defense U.S. leadership of the free world limited government fiscal responsibility and other core Republican values. Trump’s policies, on the other hand, are more populist and economically nationalistic, emphasizing America First, even at the expense of creating rifts with traditional allies. This divergence is particularly evident in the issue of the Russia-Ukraine conflict. Pence’s public criticism stands out within the Republican Party, as most Republicans have chosen to remain silent on Trump’s policies. There are certainly some Republicans who have come out in open opposition to Trump, such as former Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell Senator Murkowski of Alaska Former Congressman Liz Cheney, but they appear few and far between in the face of the vocal MAGA faction.

This discordant voice of Pence and others has led them to be caricatured as RINOs by the MAGA faction as betraying the Republican Party, but in Pence’s and their view, it is precisely the MAGA’s who have betrayed the Republican Party.
