Former Vice President Mike Pence said late Monday that he “parted amicably” with former President Trump at the end of their terms in January.
During an interview with Fox News host Sean Hannity, Pence was asked about his relationship with the former president amid their disagreements about certifying the 2020 election on Jan. 6.
“Look, you can’t spend almost five years in a political foxhole with somebody without developing a strong relationship,” Pence said.
Trump repeatedly pressured Pence to block the results of the 2020 election when Congress certified them on Jan. 6. During the count, a mob of Trump’s supporters breached the Capitol, leading to a delay of the certification.
Congress would ultimately certify President Biden’s Electoral College victory once the Capitol was secured.
