The former Vice President talking about trumps indictment now. January 6th was a tragedy. Ive spoken and written about it extensively. I have nothing to hide. By gods grace i believe we did our duty that day. Fulfilled the oath that id taken to the constitution and to the American People. The constitution is quite clear about the role of the Vice President in the counting of electoral votes. It essentially says the Vice President presides over a Joint Session Of Congress where the electoral votes that are certified by the states shall be opened and shall be counted. And irrespective of the indictment i want the American People to know that i had no right to overturn the election. And that on that day President Trump asked me to put him over the constitution but i chose the constitution. And i always will. And i really do believe that anyone who puts themself over the constitution should never be president of the United States. And anyone who asks themselves to put themselves over the c
i dismissed it out of hand. sadly, the president was surrounded by a group of crackpot lawyers that kept telling him what his itching ears wanted to hear. and while i made my case to him with what i understood my oath to the constitution to require, the president ultimate ly, ultimately, you know, continued to demand that i choose him over the constitution. so in in moment airrespective o how this case plays out i want the american people to know that i believe with all my heart by god s grace i did my duty that day. and as i stand for the republican nomination for president i want them to know, whatever it means to me, i ll always stand on the constitution of the united states of america. look, our country is more important than any one man. our constitution is more important than any one man s career. and that s true of me and that s true of the president former president of the united states.

is far faster than we anticipated so the threat is much more needed to than probably we would have forecast two or three years ago. i think the idea that you re just going to negotiate with the north korean regime and they are somehow going to stand down on some of this, i think that s a fantasy. the fact is his nuclear arsenal is really the insurance policy to keep him in power. he is not going to stand down on that so you re really left with providing really serious pressure political, economic and military. i think you have to at a minimum have a credible threat of force but there s a lot we can do on the economic front that we haven t done. we ve done some sanctions but we haven t done things to say banks in china that lander money to north korea, so there are things we can do that the president could do that i think really would hurt and i think if you can starve kim s regime of the money then that makes his rule less secure but i think ultimate
