Former Vice President Mike Pence declined Wednesday to say whether he would support former President Donald Trump should he be the Republican presidential nominee declaring that the GOP is ripe for new leadership.

Mr. Pence said he hoped voters will have “better choices” in 2024, again fanning speculation that he may face off against his former boss in the primaries.

“The American people are looking for new leadership, leadership that will unite our country around our highest ideals of leadership that will reflect the civility and respect that most Americans have for one another,” Mr. Pence said during a primetime town hall hosted by CNN’s Jake Tapper.
