« You might very well have a different president right now if he sent it back, » Trump said.
Former President Donald Trump on Monday said that he could still be in office if Mike Pence had refused to certify President Joe Biden ‘s election win. On January 6, Pence declined Trump’s demand that he block the certification by Congress of Biden’s election as the 46th U.S. president. In a three-page letter to congressional members, the then-vice president said that he didn’t share Trump’s belief that he possessed the power to reject Electoral College votes. Trump criticized Pence’s decision in a new interview on Real America’s Voice, arguing that there would be a « different president right now » if he had refused to certify Biden. « I’ve always liked Mike and I’m very disappointed that he didn’t send it back to the legislature. When you have more votes than you have voters in some cases, and when you have the kind of things that were known then, » Trump said.
