The autobiography of former Vice President Mike Pence.

Loyalty is a Vice President's first duty; but there is a greater one--to God and the Constitution.

Mike Pence spent more hours in the Oval Office than any of his predecessors. On the surface, the affable evangelical Christian from a gas-station-owning family in Indiana wouldn't seem to have much in common with a brash real estate mogul from New York. But the unlikely duo formed a tight bond. Pence was at Donald Trump's side when he enacted historic tax relief, when he decided to take more assertive stances toward China and North Korea, and when he appointed three Supreme Court justices. But the relationship broke down after the 2020 election. On January 6, 2021, as the president pressured him to overturn the election, a mob erected a gallows on Capitol Hill and its members chanted "Hang Mike Pence!" as they rampaged through the halls of Congress. The vice president refused to leave the Capitol, and once the riot was quelled, he reconvened Congress to complete the work of a peaceful transfer of power.

So Help Me God is the chronicle of the events and people who forged Mike Pence's character and led him to that historic moment. His father, a Korean War combat veteran, was a formidable influence, but so was the Indiana history professor who inspired his devotion to the Constitution. And it was in college and law school that he embraced his Christian faith and met the love of his life, Karen--the two pillars that support him every day. You will read how his early political career was full of missteps that humbled him and how, as a talk radio host, Pence found his voice and the path that led him to Congress, the governor's office in Indiana, and back to Washington as vice president.

This is the inside story of the Trump administration by its second highest official--what he said to the president and how he was tested. The relationship begins in Indiana, when Pence sees how Trump connects with working-class voters. After the election, the vice president comes to appreciate how Trump maintains that connection through unvarnished tweets and how his unorthodox style led to historic breakthroughs, from tax cuts to trade deals, from establishing the United States Space Force to the first new peace agreement in the Middle East in more than twenty-five years. This is the most robust defense of the Trump record of anyone who served in the administration.

But it is also about the private moments when Pence pushed back forcefully, how he navigated through the Mueller investigation, his damage control after Charlottesville, and his work on healing racial rifts after the murder of George Floyd. Pence was at the forefront when "history showed up" in the form of a devastating pandemic, and he provides a detailed account of leading the task force that circumvented bureaucracies to slow the disease in its tracks. Yes, it sometimes involved brokering peace between a president with an itchy Twitter finger and an agitated New York governor, but above all, it meant giving states and America's eager entrepreneurs the power to come up with the solutions we needed. The result was the fastest development of life-saving vaccines in history.

In So Help Me God, Pence shows how the faith that he embraced as a young man guided his every decision. It is a faith that guided him on that historic day and that keeps him happily at peace, ready to accept the next challenge.

A fascinating glimpse into the workings and goings on in the White House, USA, written by a man who was Vice President of the USA during the 'reign' of Donald Trump. He honestly and humbly shares his journey through the political turmoil of the day and deals with everything sincerely and openly, especially how his Christian faith guided and upheld him in every circumstance. I bought it for a gift to my son who thoroughly enjoyed reading it.

Mike Pence is a wolf in sheep clothes, he also has the audacity to call himself a devout Catholic!
Mike Pence is full of himself, a classical lying politician who cares only for himself!
What a pitiful book full of stuff he wants to push to make himself look good but in reality, Mike P. forgets there are video footage of his lies. I recommend spending some time to research all these video footage of him saying one thing but in his book he claims otherwise!

If you've ever seen Mike Pence being interviewed on TV you will have experienced the dullness of his personality. This book is no different. Utter tedium from start to finish.

5.0 out of 5 stars Well written, interesting, relevant, and important.
Reviewed in the United States on 7 June 2023
INTRODUCTION — There's a lot to say about this book, but I've summarized my overall view of it in the headline of this review: well-written, interesting, relevant, and important. I'll list a few comments below, organized alphabetically by topic.

FAITH — The frequent quoting of scriptures and references to Jesus, God, and faith, are woven throughout the book. For anyone who has lived a similar daily life of prayer and Christian mindfulness, this will seem completely normal. It's like a daily devotional. For non-religious readers, this may seem unusual. Even for people who consider themselves Christians, it may seem excessive. It could be interpreted as proselytizing or an attempt to appear to be very pious. It would help some readers to have this explained in the introduction. Some of the reviews on Amazon suggest people are not familiar with this kind of attentiveness to scripture and prayer. Since there are millions of people of Christian faith (and other religions) who live a similar conservative life of daily observance, it's helpful to have this book available as an introduction to what that life is like and understand one's more religious neighbors better.

JOURNALISM — I'm old enough to remember a time when reporters and journalists would provide an objective description of events. There is still some unbiased reporting today, but it's less common. In this book, Pence is like a journalist in that he covers a mix of unflattering life events and weaknesses, as well as some high points. Rather than a retouched Instagram-worthy portrayal of his life, he shares the entire picture. Seemingly mundane events and more exciting ones. When combined, these accounts give us a good context and backdrop to the unfolding story of the book.

POLITICS — The book stands on its own as an interesting life story. Given the remarkable political developments we've witnessed in recent years, it's unavoidable for this book not to be interpreted with a political lens. Pence was quiet for a long time after his life was threatened by an angry mob in January of 2021. When recently interviewed about the incident, he explained that he found the incident "disappointing" or something to that effect. This understated and reserved response seems consistent with his overall personality. Pence clearly doesn't want to say anything disparaging about the party or provide fodder to be used later. A potential Pence presidency would likely be a more polite and civil continuation of the policies and practices he supported during his time as Vice President and the years prior.

CONCLUSION — I'd suggest you download or view the online free sample. It will give you a good sense of what to expect. There are some surprises in the book that are unexpected based on the predominant public representation of Pence and our limited exposure to him in the news. When initially writing this review (on 26 Nov 2022), I was starting on Chapter Seven. I've only slightly modified the review in this reposting on 4 Jun 2023. Upon completing the book, I'll come back and make any needed changes to this review. Like Pence, the Midwest is my home, but I've also lived many years in the Washington, D.C. area. I went to college at about the same time he did. Much of the life experiences he describes are familiar and similar to my own. So, for me, the book is probably more relatable. I'm curious to see how the Republican Party evolves in the next two years and this book seems like an important trailhead landmark. I will probably refer back to it. Thanks for reading this review. Feel free to post any comments or questions and I'll try to reply.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best book I've read in a long time
Reviewed in the United States on 7 December 2022
I was very eager to read this book and I was not disappointed. I will not go into great detail explaining what is written inside because that is why you buy a book in the first place, to read it for yourself. Mike Pence really impressed me with his story. He told it without being mean or petty to anyone. I find it refreshing that he did not run anyone down and still gave his honest opinion about the events of the Trump Pence presidency. I appreciated his references to his faith. We need more public servants who have a respect for God and doing what is right. I have never been a Trump fan, his attitude rubs me the wrong way. But I would be very proud to vote for Mike Pence as president.

Now, as for the condition of the book, I am not happy. My copy had an oily stain on the edge of the dust jacket and the binding is loose on the front page. Amazon did not describe this book as a second so not sure what is going on with that. I will keep the book as my husband can fix it for me. It will be a keeper in my library.
