VP hopeful Kristi Noem: Mike Pence 'failed Donald Trump' ever since Jan. 6
Gov. Kristi Noem (R-SD), a possible vice presidential candidate, believes that former Vice President Mike Pence "failed Donald Trump" — but she wouldn't say if she would have certified Joe Biden's win on Jan. 6, 2021.
During a Sunday interview on CNN, host Dana Bash asked Noem if Pence was wrong to have certified the election following the Jan. 6 riot.
"So when Mike Pence said that he talked to lawyers and he felt that he had absolutely no ability to reject the election on January 6th, do you think he was wrong when he did that?" Bash said.
"You know, I wasn't in Mike Pence's shoes," Noem replied. "And the information that he had at that time, I don't know how he based his decisions."

"I think he's a nice man," she continued. "I think that he's failed Donald Trump since that day because he certainly does not recognize that we need someone in the White House who needs him out on the trail advocating for him instead of constantly criticizing and going back and ripping him apart."
