Pence, Trump tensions rise, raising questions about a break

Mike Pence will be in the spotlight on Friday afternoon when the former vice president is expected to address ex-President Trump’s most recent attacks on his handling of the 2020 election.

It’s unclear exactly how far Pence will go, but tensions between Pence and Trump are on the rise as the 2024 campaign season edges closer and both men flirt with the possibility of running for the nation’s highest office.

A preview of the Federalist Society event in Florida says that Pence “will deliver remarks about constitutional principles and the rule of law,” but aides said Trump’s comments about overturning the election will likely come up.
