Pence will kick off his campaign with a video and announcement in Iowa, and will make a live televised pitch to the nation at a town hall event.

Pence spent his 2017-21 tenure as Vice President by Trump's side, but became a pariah in Trumpworld after rejecting the President's demands to overturn the 2020 election.

Since then, Pence has called out Trump for endangering his family and others, and has emphasized his differences with Trump on various issues.
