Former Vice President Mike Pence criticized Donald Trump's tariffs policy, predicting it would lead to price shocks and shortages, pressuring Trump to modify his approach. In a CNN interview, he condemned Trump's inconsistent support for Ukraine and addressed the pardoning of January 6th rioters, emphasizing it was a message contrary to law enforcement support. Pence's comments reflect his ongoing critique of Trump's leadership, particularly regarding economic policies, while he was honored with the John F. Kennedy Profile in Courage award for his electoral integrity during the 2020 presidential election.
I do have concerns that, with the president's call for broad-based tariffs against friend and foe alike, that ultimately the administration is advancing policies that are not targeted at countries that have been abusing our trade relationship."
Pence expressed disappointment in Trump's decision to pardon about 1,600 convicted rioters, stating it sent the wrong message, especially towards those who engaged in violence against law enforcement."
