Mike Pence Attacked Slamming Trump for Destroying “America’s Golden Age” — Wins Liberal Courage Award

. . .Pence is trending again today for his strident criticism of Trump’s second term economic actions, attacking the President’s “liberation day” tariffs as part of an agenda that is “spoiling America’s Golden Age.” Pence is again being praised by Democrats for his courage and iconoclasm amidst the MAGA policy deluge.

Pence derided the tariffs as “the largest peacetime tax hike in U.S. history.” He simultaneously sought to separate them from the smaller tariffs he supported during Trump 1.0, saying: “These Tariffs are nearly 10x the size of those imposed during the Trump-Pence Administration and will cost American families over $3,500 per year.”

Yet in response, Pence is being subjected to evidence of his long history as a Trump partner and enabler. Multiple commenters — from both sides of the aisle — are noting that Pence once supported Trump’s reciprocal tariffs, making his current stance self-serving and hypocritical.

Popular conservative social media account MAZE noted that Pence “literally spent a year going around the country arguing in favor of Trump’s tariff policies” — and shared video below showing Pence in action.
