Read our privacy policy Former vice president Mike Pence got into a heated exchange with a right-wing radio host about whether he would pardon former president Donald Trump were he to become president. Mr Pence appeared on “The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show” on Wednesday where he was asked by Mr Travis if he would pardon Mr Trump if he were facing prison time by the time Mr Pence potentially became president. “And I just think it's premature to have a conversation about that right now guys.” Mr Pence’s opponent for the Republican nomination for president Florida Governor Ron DeSantis previously told Mr Buck and Mr Travis that, were he to become president, he would pardon Mr Trump and anyone else who received “disfavoured treatment” from the Department of Justice. Mr Pence had previously called the indictment a “sad day for America” and criticised the Justice Department for targeting Mr Trump, before later saying he “can’t defend” the allegations.
