Does Mike Pence still believe Donald Trump is a good man?

NPR host Steve Inskeep interviewed the former Vice President, whose new memoir, “So Help Me God,” recounts his life up to the moment when he refused to overturn the 2020 election defeat of then-President Donald Trump.

Asked whether he still considers Trump a good man, Pence replied at considerable length without ever saying that he did. He said only that Trump had authored important achievements but was "wrong" on Jan. 6.

"I truly do believe that only God knows our hearts," he added. "And I'll leave it to others to make their own judgments."

"Are you a limp noodle?"
"Well, Steve, pasta is a food. And I will always believe pasta can soften when it is boiled."

All i heard was:
"I don't want to answer this question"

[ulyrhee]

He answered it. Refused to call him a good man.

What a coward Pence is. Thank you Inskeep for keeping him on topic.

[lurx]

By not answering the question, he answered the question.

Why does the US public keep putting up with this BS

[chrissetzer]

This dude dodged the heck out of this question. lol

He needs to go into retirement and not do anything public anymore. We are done with him.

A wise man once told me “Listen with your eyes not just your ears”

[leobarrios]

Why not ask Donald Trump, if he still believed that Pence is still a good man.

Looks like even the fly had enough of Pence's BS.

[mikeable]

Such a coward to not say no he's not a good man

[David-edm]

He's such a politician. Just can't answer a question straight and honest. No balls. No backbone.

[andreamartsolf]

I think he answered without actually answering lol

[jostahl]

Lost ALL respect for this man long ago. Wouldn't vote for him or trust his opinions on anything.

[LM-qseq]

He wrote a book? On what planet did his publisher think that would sell?

[buenaboys]

Answered like a politician. So glad he’s not in office anymore

“When you say nothing, you say everything”

[vxkgluv]

I can never forget Pence sitting at that conference table repeatedly telling Trump he loved him.

[johnnysparkleface]

I can't stand Pence. He's the epitome of a politician, non-answering and self serving. I can't believe he thinks he's fooling us.
