Donald Trump supporters criticized former Vice President Mike Pence at a campaign stop in New Hampshire on Friday.
The exchange reportedly took place in a parking lot in Londonderry Friday evening.
“Why did you sell out the people?” someone shouted at Pence.
“Why didn’t you uphold the constitution?” another individual asked.
Other comments reportedly included, “that’s a traitor” and “you’re a sellout.”
“I upheld the constitution,” Pence replied.

The comments refer to Mike Pence certifying the results of the 2020 presidential election.
“Pence implicitly admits he had the power to reject fraudulent votes on J6,” DC Draino wrote.
“It wasn’t just that they asked for a pause. The president specifically asked me, and his gaggle of crackpot lawyers asked me to literally reject votes, which would have resulted in the issue being turned over to the House of Representatives, and literally chaos would have ensued,” Pence said in an interview with Fox News.

He knew there was fraud and if he sent EC votes back to state legislatures for further review, 12th Amendment would’ve kicked in where GOP House of Reps would’ve voted for Trump

“President Trump was wrong in saying that I had some right to overturn the election. My duty on January wasn’t a belief, it’s the law and the history of this Country,” Pence said Thursday.

“Today’s indictment serves as an important reminder: anyone who puts himself over the Constitution should never be President of the United States,” Pence said in response to Donald Trump’s J6 witch hunt indictment.
