Former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo announced Friday he will not seek the Republican nomination for president of the United States in 2024.
Pompeo first told "Special Report" he and his wife Susan considered the prospect for months before ultimately concluding it is will not be the course of action at this time.
"I have made a decision," he said. "We have prayerfully come to the conclusion we are not going to join the race in 2024. While, we care deeply about America and the issues I've been talking about for the past year and half and frankly for decades matter an awful lot – this isn't our moment."
Pompeo was asked if the presence of his former boss, ex-President Donald Trump, in the race added any weight to his decision, he said it will not – later adding he plans to absolutely support the eventual GOP nominee.
