Former Vice President Mike Pence said Monday that former President Donald Trumpshould apologize for having dinner with white nationalist Nick Fuentes.
‘President Trump was wrong to give a white nationalist, an antisemite and Holocaust denier, a seat at the table and I think he should apologize for it,’ Pence said in an interview with NewsNation that will air Monday night. ‘And he should denounce those individuals and their hateful rhetoric without qualification.’
But Pence also defended his former running mate – who he had a falling out with after he refused to overturn the 2020 election results when he chaired the joint session of Congress on January 6.
‘With that being said, as I point out in the book as well, I don’t believe Donald Trump is an Anti-Semite. I don’t believe he’s a racist or a bigot. I would not have been his vice president if he was,’ Pence continued.
He pointed out how Trump’s daughter Ivanka converted to Judaism when she married Jared Kushner, and that their three children are Jewish.
‘His grandchildren are Jewish,’ Pence said of Trump.
Pence indicated that he believed the ‘broad brush of attack that media leveled at him’ was unfair.
