Pence says 'Trump is wrong' that he had a right to overturn election
Vice President Mike Pence on Friday resoundingly rejected a claim by former President Trump that he had the ability to overturn the 2020 presidential election, saying that there's little that is more un-American than the notion that any president can choose the nation's leader.
"The presidency belongs to the American people and the American people alone," Pence continued."And frankly, there is no idea more un-American than the notion that any one American could choose the American president. Under the Constitution, I had no right to change the outcome of our election." Pence's contradiction of his former boss did not go unnoticed by Trump, who said in a Friday night statement that it"would have been appropriate" for Pence to send votes back to the legislatures if there was"fraud or large scale irregularities." "January 6 was a dark day in the history of the United States Capitol. Lives were lost," Pence said."And many were injured.
