The Washington Post reported that he filed paperwork with the Federal Election Commission Monday.

Pence stated in a series tweets that were posted on Saturday that he believes that “Conservatives are given a rare opportunity to renew America’s promise.”

“We do not have to accept an economic future in decline and moral degradation. We don’t need to trade the American dream for an socialist nightmare. Pence tweeted: “We don’t need to condemn our children to an existence of bitterness, cynicism and division.”

We can become a nation where everyone benefits and wins. We can have a good government as good as the people. We can have a government that is as good as our people.

Joe Biden, the Democrat president, announced in April that he would run for reelection despite many concerns, including those within his own party about his age and health.

“Four years ago, when I ran for President, I said that we were in a fight for the souls of America. We still are. We must decide whether we want more or less freedom in the future. Biden said, “More rights or fewer?”

“I already know the answer I’m looking for, and I believe you also do.” It is not the time to be complacent. “That’s why I am running for re-election.”

Robert F. Kennedy Jr., an anti-vaccine lawyer and activist who is also a best-selling author, and Marianne Williamson (a former 2020 candidate) are other Democrat presidential candidates.

A poll conducted by NBC News in April revealed that 70% of respondents did not wish for Biden to be re-elected, and 60% did not desire Trump to become president.
