It looks like Mike Pence just can’t help himself. Once again, the former vice president is taking shots at President Donald Trump—this time, for his efforts to negotiate peace between Russia and Ukraine, as reported by The Gateway Pundit.

If there was any doubt about where Pence’s loyalties lie, he’s made it painfully clear: he’d rather throw shade at Trump than support a leader who actually gets things done.

Most recently, Pence was lobbying Republican senators to block Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s Senate confirmation.

Before that, he made it known that he was “literally praying” that Trump wouldn’t pardon the January 6 political prisoners—many of whom have been subjected to egregious legal overreach for simply supporting their president.

Now, Pence is back at it again, attacking Trump for attempting to end the war in Ukraine.

On Wednesday, President Trump took a decisive step toward brokering peace by speaking directly with Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.

Trump is also expected to meet with Putin in Saudi Arabia, and there are even reports that he’s been invited to Russia for further discussions. While any rational leader would applaud efforts to prevent further bloodshed, Pence saw an opportunity to launch yet another public attack.

On Tuesday, Pence took to X to voice his disapproval, making it clear he’s not on board with Trump’s diplomatic strategy. But let’s be real—who’s funding Pence these days?

Mr. President, Ukraine will only “be Russian someday” if the United States abandons them to Putin’s brutal invasion. As you just said,“When America is Strong the World is at Peace.” Stand Firm. If Ukraine falls, it will only be a matter of time until Russia invades a NATO ally… pic.twitter.com/6KbUKGINt2

His constant criticism of Trump has raised questions about whether he’s taking cues from the globalist establishment rather than standing with the America First movement.

Pence’s latest comments highlight his growing irrelevance in conservative circles. While Trump is out there making moves and working to put America back in a leadership position on the world stage, Pence seems content throwing potshots from the sidelines.

Maybe he’s just bitter that his own presidential bid flopped so hard it barely made a ripple.

As Trump continues his push for peace, the contrast between the two men couldn’t be starker. One is a leader with a proven track record of tough negotiations and successful diplomacy.

The other is a career politician who betrayed his base and now spends his time grandstanding for approval from the very establishment that’s been undermining American interests for decades.

Pence may think he’s scoring points with his latest Trump-bashing, but the truth is, grassroots conservatives see right through him.
