The David Rubenstein Show: Former US Vice President Mike Pence

This is my kitchen table and also my filing system. Over much of the past three decades, I've been an investor the highest calling of mankind I've often thought was private equity. And then I started interviewing.

Oh, I watch your interview with coach. I know how to do something. I've learned in doing my interviews how leaders make it to the top.

I asked him how much you want. He said to 50. I said, Fine.

I didn't negotiate with him. I didn't know due diligence. I have something I'd like to sell and how they stay there.

You don't feel inadequate now because being only the second wealthiest man in the world, Is that right? Every American remembers where they were on January six, 2021. But no American probably was more at the center of attention on that day than Mike Pence.

I had a chance to sit down with him to talk about the epic events of January six, 2021. His career as a lifelong political figure and his current activities. You've been a governor of Indiana for ten years, a member of Congress from Indiana and vice President United States for four years.

So are you thinking about possibly running again or you've had enough elective offices? You know, I'm a I like to say I never say never. But I can tell you, David, my focus right now is really on trying to be a voice for the conservative values that have really animated my career over the last 40 years and the foundation I created after we left Washington, D.C., called Advancing American Freedom is really committed to those.

Those are Barry Goldwater, Ronald Reagan, George Bush principles that really also guided the Trump administration of a strong defense. Limited government, fiscal responsibility, traditional values.
