Mike Pence did not mince words when reacting to Donald Trump’s latest indictment.
Former Vice President Mike Pence laid into former President Donald Trump Tuesday, accusing him of prioritizing himself over the Constitution — and blasting his latest run for the White House as a “distraction.”
“The former president is entitled to the presumption of innocence but with this indictment, his candidacy means more talk about January 6th and more distractions,” Pence continued. “As Americans, his candidacy means less attention paid to Joe Biden’s disastrous economic policies afflicting millions across the United States and to the pattern of corruption with Hunter [Biden].”
“On January 6th, Former President Trump demanded that I choose between him and the Constitution,” Pence added, referring to Trump’s efforts during the Jan. 6, 2021, riot at the US Capitol to get him to halt the certification of electoral votes. “I chose the Constitution and I always will.” Today's indictment serves as an important reminder: anyone who puts himself over the Constitution should never be President of the United States.During last year’s public hearing by the House select committee investigating the Jan. 6 events, a former aide to Trump’s then-chief of staff Mark Meadows testified under oath that when the president heard his supporters chanting “hang Mike Pence,” he told White House staff that his vice president “deserves” it.
