    Former Vice President Mike Pence tore into Donald Trump
    and pointed to isolationism in the Republican Party as
    complicit in the sweeping Hamas attack on Israel,
    decrying American “retreat on the world stage.”

    In a scathing rebuke, Pence faulted “voices of appeasement
    like Donald Trump, Vivek Ramaswamy and Ron DeSantis that
    I believe have run contrary to the tradition in our party
    that America is the leader of the free world.”

    Pence’s comments in Iowa represented the first ripple in
    the Republican primary from the violence that erupted on
    Saturday — and effectively threw down a challenge to
    Republicans he said have “embraced the language of
    isolationism and appeasement.”
