Mike Pence: “I won't be endorsing Donald Trump this year.”

It smacks of the kind of appeasement the president rightly rejected during our first term.

Maximum pressure worked. America’s military strength worked. The blockade worked. Iran came to the table because the regime’s existence teetered on a knife’s edge.

Drive a hard bargain, but let’s pursue free trade with free nations, most especially our trading partners to the north.

The president deserves tremendous credit for taking the fight directly to Tehran, and every American should welcome the prospect of peace.
