During last Thursday's primetime hearing of the Jan. 6 select committee, video outtakes of former President Trump showed him bristling against attempts by White House staffers to get him to condemn his supporters for rioting at the U.S. Capitol and acknowledge that the 2020 election was over.
His refusal to stick to the script prepared for him by his advisers is a central piece of evidence in the committee's case that Trump was the driving force behind the insurrection, and one off-the-cuff moment seemed to epitomize the dilemma for the Republican Party when it comes to how to move on from Jan. 6 and the Trump presidency itself.
“I don’t know that the president and I differ on issues, we may differ on focus,” Pence told his conservative audience. “I truly do believe that elections are about the future. And it’s absolutely essential at a time when so many Americans are hurting, so many families are struggling, that we don’t give way to the temptation to look back.”
"Let me just say what everybody here knows: Mike Pence will never be president," Gaetz said to cheers."Nice guy, not a leader." While Trump made news by endorsing a return to police stop-and-frisk policies, advocating for the death penalty for drug dealers and suggesting the U.S. solve its homelessness problem by, he initially made limited references to the Jan. 6"unselect committee" and what he claimed was his 2020 election victory."That's going to be a story for a long time," Trump said.
