“At the end of the day, I’ll always believe that, by God’s grace, we did our duty [on January 6] to support and defend the Constitution of the United States of America. I don’t think the president should pardon anyone who assaulted a police officer at the United States Capitol on January 6.
“Karen and I are literally praying that President-elect Trump and Vice President-elect Vance will stand on the commitments that they will make when they raise their right hands on that day. And with God’s grace and the support of the American people, I believe they will.
“I am very encouraged by the early appointments by the president-elect. The nature of leadership that he practices is one of getting inputs from all sorts of different sources. I think they’re off to a good start.” – Mike Pence, speaking today at the Dispatch Summit.
