Trump says Pence is 'mortally wounded' inside the GOP for his role in certifying 2020 election results

As former Vice President Mike Pence weighs his future in politics -- laying the groundwork for a possible presidential campaign in 2024 and supporting Republican candidates who face reelection next fall -- former President Donald Trump said Pence is "mortally wounded" inside the GOP.
Video posted to social media shows Trump, who was speaking at a closed press event with former Fox News host Bill O'Reilly over the weekend, telling a crowd that Pence "has been very badly hurt" by his commitment on January 6 to allow congressional certification of the 2020 election results.
"I was disappointed in one thing, but it was a big thing. Mike should have sent those crooked votes back to the legislatures and you would have had a different result in the election, in my opinion," the former President told an audience on Saturday as part of O'Reilly's "History Tour" in Sunrise, Florida.
President Joe Biden is expected to announce an executive order as early as Tuesday that would effectively shut down the US-Mexico border to asylum-seekers crossing illegally when a daily threshold of crossings is exceeded – a sweeping and controversial proposal that is likely to receive fierce pushback from progressives and immigration advocates.
In the days and weeks leading up Hunter Biden’s trial on felony gun charges, President Joe Biden made little attempt to distance himself from his son. Instead, Hunter Biden was seen at the White House and in Delaware at his father’s side amid what the president’s allies acknowledge is a difficult moment for both men.
