President Trump attacked his vice president on Twitter on Wednesday after Pence announced he would not interfere with certifying the electoral votes, saying the former Indiana governor didn’t have the “courage” to stick up for the country.
Trump has now been suspended from Twitter for his video during the riots peddling disputed claims of election fraud and calling rioters “special.”
After the riot at the Capitol, many lawmakers are calling for Pence to enact the 25th Amendment and remove Trump from office. Pence has not tweeted since after the riots Wednesday.
