Since her husband was elected vice president in 2016, Karen Pence has had to navigate the non-elected but public role of second lady.
Maureen GroppeWASHINGTON –
A watercolor artist, Pence has collaborated with her daughter on a series of children's books about the family rabbit. As Pence steps up her involvement in the 2020 reelection campaign, she talked with USA TODAY about her campaign role and other issues.You’ve increased your social media presence and recently participated in a “Women for Trump” event in Minnesota. Is this an expansion of your campaign role?That’s an interesting question to me because I’ve been campaigning since 1987 so it’s kind of funny for people to think that I’m suddenly campaigning. It may have that appearance, though, to people.
A lot of the things I go to are things that wouldn’t really fit the vice president or the first lady. And they’re things that I’m like, 'I can go. I can go do this. Put me in coach.’It's been reported that you were upset with your husband on election night because of Trump's unexpected victory. Are you trying to show your loyalty to the ticket?Don’t believe everything you read. I’d like to know where that story came from. Because everybody was so exhausted.
