Outgoing President Donald Trump and Vice President Mike Pence met for a meeting at the White House on Monday.
Bloomberg reports, referring to two people who are familiar with the case.
Fox News reporter John Roberts and Reuters journalist Steve Holland also reported this on Twitter. The latter refers to a source in the Trump administration.
“I had a good conversation”
Total confusion after this
According to Reuters sources, the meeting took place in the Oval Office of the White House on Monday afternoon local time.
“The two had a good conversation. He spoke about next week and reflected on the work and achievements of the administration in the last four years,” the source tells Reuters.
“Breaking the law”
According to the source, it was also repeated during the meeting that the protesters who broke into Congress last week violated the law.
The source claims that Pence and Trump agreed that “those who broke the law and the storm of Congress last week do not represent the” first movement of the United States “that has the support of 75 million Americans.”
Trump and Pence are also said to have promised each other “to continue working on behalf of the country for the remainder of the presidency,” according to the source.
Has been by Trump’s side
Linked to Tromsø: – Sad
Pence has been by Trump’s side for the past four years, but after the attack on Congress last Wednesday, the relationship is said to have been broken.
Later, Vice President Pence opposed Trump by formally approving Joe Biden as the winner of the presidential election. Pence also had to evacuate when Trump supporters attacked Congress last Wednesday.
Can throw Trump
A source tells NBC News that Pence, on the other hand, will remain “very upset” that Trump has done nothing more to deter the attack.
“Life was at stake,” a source close to Pence told the channel.
Monday’s meeting took place at a time when Democrats are trying to get Vice President Pence to use the “25th Amendment,” the 25th Amendment, which allows the vice president to oust the incumbent president if he believes he is unfit to do his job.
Attend the opening ceremony
Call on Pence to topple Trump, blocked by Republicans
According to experts Dagbladet has spoken with, Pence is unlikely to use the constitutional amendment, but they emphasize that nothing can be ruled out.
– Pence and McConnell, in particular, should have made better use of the opportunity with the Supreme Court case a year ago. Everyone involved knew that Trump was unfit to be president back then. No one has managed to contain Trump in particular except his immediate family. Trump is Trump and does exactly what he wants. Pence is co-responsible and the closest to a strong candidate for the worst president of the United States of all time, American researcher Anders Romarheim from the Department of Defense Studies (IFS) told Dagbladet.
It is not yet known whether Trump and Pence will have discussed this team during Monday’s meeting.
According to NBC News, Pence is expected to resume a more “normal” schedule in the last term of the Trump presidency. Among other things, he will have plans to attend Joe Biden’s inauguration ceremony on January 20, according to Reuters.
Trump, for his part, has said he will not attend Biden’s inauguration ceremony.
“For everyone who asks, I will not be going to the inauguration on January 20,” Trump wrote on Twitter on Friday.
Trump was permanently banned from Twitter this weekend and has not spoken publicly since.
Facebook and Instagram have also banned Trump from their platforms after Wednesday’s storm, but indefinitely.
Multiple outlets reported that Trump would make a statement on Fox News on Monday night Norwegian time, but overnight, Trump has yet to appear.
