Former Vice President Mike Pence on Saturday accused Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg of carrying out a “political prosecution” against former President Donald Trump.
Mr. Pence spoke out in defense of his former boss after Mr. Trump claimed that he will be arrested on Tuesday and called for his supporters to protest his impending indictment over alleged hush money payments in 2016.
“Well, like many Americans, I’m just, I’m taken aback,” Mr. Pence told SiriusXM’s Breitbart News Saturday and host Matt Boyle.
