Pence defended his actions, calling the events of that day "misunderstood" in the face of former President Donald Trump's continued false assertion that Pence could have overturned the results of the last election, something he had authority to do. "No vice president in American history ever asserted the authority that you have been convinced that I had. And I will tell you, with all due respect, I said before -- I said when I announced: President Trump was wrong about my authority that day and is still wrong," he said.
"Frankly, I welcomed the opportunity to speak about it today. Because I know that my former running mate continues to hold the view that I had some authority that the Constitution had never given any vice president in history, and did not give me," Pence said.

Pence thinks he can. "Ultimately, I think that the people in our movement, like most Americans, cherish our Constitution," he said. "I have great confidence in Republican voters. I know the people of our movement."
