Results: Trump suggests Pence to blame for Jan. 6 violence after former VP's criticism
Published on 03/23/2023
WASHINGTON – Donald Trump further widened the breach with former Vice President Mike Pence by faulting him for the violence of Jan. 6, 2021 – because he refused a possibly illegal demand that he overturn Trump's loss in the 2020 election.
"In many ways you can blame him for Jan. 6,” Trump told reporters Monday aboard his private plane en route to a campaign event in Iowa, according to The Washington Post.
Trump responded to questions about Pence, who considered the demand improper and illegal, and who spiked up his criticism of the former president during a weekend dinner of senior Washington journalists and dignitaries.
Again saying Trump was "wrong," Pence said at the annual Gridiron dinner that "I had no right to overturn the election. And his reckless words endangered my family and everyone at the Capitol that day. And I know that history will hold Donald Trump accountable.” https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2023/03/14/donald-trump-mike-pence-jan-6-blame/11469303002/
