Mike Pence Criticizes Trump; Calls Him "Reckless"

“I hope the Justice Department understands the magnitude, the very idea of indicting a former president of the United States,” Pence said on Fox News. “I think that would be terribly divisive in the country at a time when the American people want to see us heal. At this time of year, we’re all thinking about the most important things in our lives, our faith, our family, and my hope is the Justice Department will think very carefully with how they proceed in that regard.”

Pence has repeatedly referred to the riots as a dark day in history, and he has rebuffed Trump’s claims that the vice president has the authority to reject electoral results. But he has also been critical at times of what he views as the partisan nature of the House panel and its focus on Trump.
