Pence says Trump ‘endangered me and my family’ with ‘reckless’ Jan. 6 behavior

Published November 13, 2022 12:00am ET



Former Vice President Mike Pence said former President Donald Trump’s rhetoric leading up to and on Jan. 6 was “reckless” and “endangered me and my family and everyone at the Capitol.”

Pence made the comments in an upcoming interview with ABC’s World News Tonight, snippets of which were released on Sunday. Anchor David Muir referenced the former president’s tweet as violent protesters stormed the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, accusing Pence of not having the “courage to do what he should have done” with regard to certifying President Joe Biden’s electoral victory in Congress in his capacity as president of the Senate.
