Is Mike Pence on thin ice? Sources tell V.F. that Trump is eager for a 2020 reboot.
from the ticket and replace him with former U.N. ambassador“They threaten Mike every week that they’re going to take him off the ticket,” a Republican in touch with Pence’s camp told me. “They tell him, ‘You have to go here and say this, you have to go there and do that.’”
The possible Pence defenestration is being driven by several factors, sources said. One is that Trump’s upside-down poll numbers with women make it imperative that he do something big to improve his standing with female suburban voters. “The political thinking is that while Pence is popular with evangelicals, they won’t have anywhere to go,” the former West Wing official said. It would also give Trump a card to play during the Democrats’ convention next July.
But another consideration is Trump’s frustration with Pence. Despite Pence’s obsequiousness, the relationship between the two has never cemented. “Trump sees him as a good Christian man, but in Trump’s mind he thinks that means Mike’s weak,” the Republican close to the White House said. Trump has complained to people that Pence isn’t loyal enough. “Trump is annoyed Pence hasn’t been defending him more,” a Republican close to the White House said.
Perhaps the most audacious element of Trump’s strategy reset is his plan to win back black and Hispanic voters. “There’s this myth in Trumpworld that they’ll win 20% of the black vote,” said the Republican close to the White House. “They think with the economy and criminal justice reform, they’ll make it up with black voters in Rust Belt states. Trump tells people, ‘Black people love me.
