Republican presidential candidate Asa Hutchinson is calling fellow GOP presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy's promise to pardon former President Donald Trump as"wrong."
"And so we shouldn’t be promising and holding out the fig leaf of a pardon because that undermines our jury system. It undermines the grand jury that found probable cause to have him say there is going to be a pardon anyway for this. That undermines the rule of law in our country I have served my lifetime supporting, and it is offensive to me that anyone would be holding out a pardon under these circumstances," he added.
Ramaswamy responded to Hutchinson's comments in a tweet by calling it"pathetic to watch establishment GOP candidates celebrate" the indictment.
