Pence not convinced Trump’s Jan. 6 actions were criminal

Former Vice President Pence isn’t convinced that Donald Trump’s behavior leading up to the January 6th Capitol riot was criminal. Pence told CNN that Trump’s words “were reckless,” but he’s not sure they amounted to criminal activity. The former VP and current Republican presidential candidate also said he “honestly” doesn’t know what Trump’s intention was on January 6th, 2021, when people angry over the 2020 election results stormed the U-S Capitol. Last week, Trump said he had received a letter saying he is a target of a grand jury investigation into efforts to overturn the election.
