Mike Pompeo to Newsmax TV: I’m Focused on Next Few Weeks, Not 2024 – By Theodore Bunker (Newsmax) / Dec 14 2020
Secretary of State Mike Pompeo on Monday dismissed speculation about a potential 2024 presidential run, telling Newsmax TV that he’s “focused on the next handful of weeks” before the inauguration.
Pompeo told “Wake Up America” on Monday when asked about the potentially crowded 2024 Republican presidential field: “I am focused on the next handful of weeks making sure that we get everything up and through Jan. 20, and until the moment that I’m no longer secretary of state, I’ll stay focused on that. I’ll add only this: It has been an enormous privilege to serve in this administration and do my part to deliver on the commitments President [Donald] Trump made to keep Americans safe and improve our national security. I’m very confident that we’ve done that, and I’m proud to have served on this team.”
He also said “it’s hard to nail down” a single accomplishment that he’s most proud of, but said: “President Trump came into office with a fundamentally different view than Washington [D.C.] had done for a long time on foreign policy. We broke a lot of glass and we’ve had a lot of success making the American people safer as a direct result of that.”
