Former Vice President Mike Pence predicts Donald Trump won't be able to claim the Republican nomination for the White House in 2024. In an interview with USA TODAY, Pence also declined to commit to voting for Trump if the GOP does choose him again.

In what was presumably an unintended echo of Jimmy Carter's campaign slogan in 1976, Pence said,"The American people long for leadership, for government as good as our people.
