Former Vice President Mike Pence said he would comply with the law if he were compelled to testify in former President Donald Trumps trial in the election case . Pence was subpoenaed by the special counsel in February to testify before the federal grand jury and after some legal backandforth he testified in April . Trump on Thursday pleaded not guilty in a Washington DC courthouse to four criminal charges including conspiracy to defraud the United States . The federal judge who will preside over the case intends to set a trial date at the next hearing on August . Pence said Trump was wrong then and now on the idea that Pence as vice president presiding over Congress count of the Electoral College vote had a right to reject the election result . The American people deserve to know that President Trump asked me to put him over my oath to the Constitution but I kept my oath and I always will. I mean our Constitution is more important than any one man. Our country is more than than anyOne mans career he said. The American People deserve to be more than happy to be called too honest and well just tell the truth if he is asked to be a witness if he was asked to testify . Trump claimed in a Truth Social post that I never told Pence to put me above the Constitution. He said he never told anyone else to put himself above the constitution. I think anyone who puts themselves over the Constitution should never be president of the U.S. and I said. Our Country is More important than anyone else. Our relationship is More than than anyone. Our nation is more about any one person. Our people are more important. Our business is more. Our company is more concerned than any other man’s business. We are more concerned about our business. Our economy.
Pence says he’ll ‘comply with the law’ if called to testify in 2020
