Mike Pence accused President Trump of abandoning America's leadership in the world, a clip the Biden campaign will no doubt use.
Pence said on CBS' Face the Nation that about one in six people refused to support Trump.
There is a big difference between the president and me. Many people think that January 6th just happened, but frankly the fact that the president continues to insist that I had the right to overturn the election on that day makes a fundamental difference. .
I want to make it clear that in my heart I forgive the President for what happened that day. As a Christian I am called to do so. I've been praying for him in that regard. The question of the Constitution is by no means a small one, but it is not the only one.

Mike Pence will not support President Biden. That's true, but Mr. Pence knows exactly what he's doing. President Trump's abandonment of America's global leadership has become one of the Biden campaign's main talking points.
