Former Vice Pres. Pence says the potential federal indictment of Donald Trump would be 'extremely divisive' for the nation and that he hopes the Justice Department only moves forward with 'unprecedented' charges if they are certain in their case.
, former Vice President Mike Pence on Thursday said the potential federal indictment of Donald Trump would be "extremely divisive" for the nation and that he hopes the Department of Justice only moves forward with "unprecedented" charges if they are certain in their case.
He's repeatedly emphasized this split view of his former boss, both in the months leading up to his 2024 campaign kickoff and as his bid officially got underway in Iowa this week. Such target letters are to warn people they face possible indictment. Trump has repeatedly denied wrongdoing.related to hush money paid to the adult film actress Stormy Daniels and has pleaded not guilty.
One attendee at the Pizza Barn told ABC News that she and her daughter first heard about Pence's visit on the local news on Wednesday night and came out to meet him after realizing it was nearby while out running errands. "Mike Pence has proven he won't back down to Trump. Where is the rest of the field?" Bobby Saparow, executive director of Committed to America, said in an emailed statement. "This ad sets the tone for what you can expect from us. No issue will be off limits for our operation."
As Pence makes a big bet on Iowa Republican caucus-goers by launching his campaign there rather than his home state of Indiana, it's clear from half a dozen interviews with his launch attendees that they are far less locked-in on him.
