In a call to then-Vice President Mike Pence on the morning of January 6, then-President Donald Trump said he wasn’t “tough enough” to overturn the election, and called him a “wimp”, according to witness testimony gathered by the House Select Committee investigating the 2021 Capitol attack.
A former counsel to Mr Pence, attorney Greg Jacob, told the committee on Thursday that Mr Pence received the call at the Vice President’s residence on the morning of January 6.
