Establishment conservatives that critics view as corporate rather than organic appear to be backing former Vice President Mike Pence\u2019s nonprofit even as younger Republicans grow weary of old-school capitalism.<\/p>\n

Advancing American Freedom (AAF), which Pence founded in April 2021, is talking with donors to coordinate an eight-figure campaign launching in the fall and continuing through the 2028 election cycle to \u201csell Republican officials and candidates on the importance of free-market capitalism,\u201d POLITICO\u2019s \u201cPlaybook\u201d reported Saturday. The campaign comes amid Republican infighting over what role capitalism will play in the party\u2019s platform moving forward.

AAF did not immediately respond to the Daily Caller News Foundation\u2019s request for comment.<\/p>\n

Pence founded AAF \u201cto promote the pro-freedom policies of the last four years that created unprecedented prosperity at home and restored respect for America abroad, to defend those policies from liberal attacks and media distortions, and to prevent the radical Left from enacting its policy agenda that would threaten America\u2019s freedoms,\u201d according to an April 7, 2021, press release.<\/p>\n

A member of the Republican Party\u2019s old guard, Pence has repeatedly criticized the Trump administration\u2019s tendency to intervene in the economy, particularly with tariffs.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Because AAF operates as a 501(c)(4) social welfare organization, it is not required to disclose individual donors. As a result, it is not immediately clear who Pence has been talking to concerning AAF\u2019s upcoming campaign.<\/p>\n

The nonprofit, however, projected it will have a $35 million budget by 2023, The Hill reported in 2022. One individual reportedly gave AAF $2 million, and another gave $1 million.<\/p>\n

AAF\u2019s looming launch comes as political arguments over cost of living and affordability issues, such as the \u201cGreat Burrito Debate,\u201d ensue. That debate began after Turning Point USA spokesman Andrew Kolvet shared in an Aug. 4 X post that \u201c[o]ne of our TPUSA college students gave me his take on affordability: \u2018A burrito shouldn\u2019t cost $20.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u201cCry me a river. The burritos in the college cafeteria are included in your meal plan,\u201d conservative Washington Post columnist Marc Thiessen replied in an Aug. 5 X post.<\/p>\n

Trump\u2019s replacement for Pence on the 2024 ticket, Vice President JD Vance, retorted on X that same day, \u201cI\u2019m surprised to hear Mark say this. If you\u2019ve ever met him in person, it\u2019s quite obvious the man has never missed a burrito.\u201d<\/p>\n

Many populists within the Republican Party view alleviating economic challenges through government intervention as necessary to stop socialists from seizing power.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe fact is that young people in America today, the ones that are in college, think about their lives: It\u2019s possible that their family lost their home in the financial crisis, that they missed out on their prom and high school experiences and dorm living during Covid, and that they then had four years of Biden inflation. They\u2019ve gotten dealt some tough cards,\u201d Kolvet told \u201cPlaybook.\u201d \u201cIf we don\u2019t speak to them where they are, that\u2019s political suicide. That is political malfeasance.\u201d<\/p>\n
