Mike Pence: Trump’s words put me and my family at risk
Former US Vice President Mike Pence says Donald Trump’s words on January 6, 2021 endangered him, his family and everyone in the Congress building that day.
– I believe that the president’s words were inexcusable. It was clear that he had chosen to be part of the problem, Pence said in an interview with ABC News Sunday.
The background is the assault on Congress on January 6 of last year. Elected representatives were then endorsing Joe Biden’s election victory. Former President Donald Trump had asked Pence to intervene, which he didn’t have the opportunity to do, even though he had a ceremonial role in the process. (NTB)
