Vice President-elect Mike Pence on Wednesday called President Obama’s commutation of Chelsea Manning’s prison sentence “a mistake,” calling the former army intelligence analyst a “traitor.”
“To commute Private Manning’s sentence was a mistake,” Pence told Bret Baier of Fox News for an interview set to air Wednesday night. “Private Manning is a traitor and should not have been turned into a martyr, as Sen. Cotton said.”
