Mike Pence Was Just Asked About Donald Trump's Claim That Previous Presidents Told Him They Should Have Built a Wall, and It Got So Awkward

Riiight.

Vice President Mike Pence on Tuesday struggled to defend President Donald Trump's claims that all former presidents have expressed support for the construction of a border wall.

“This should have been done by all of the presidents that preceded me, and they all know it,” Trump boasted during a news conference without providing evidence. “Some of them have told me that we should have done it.”


On Today, Pence said Trump was referring to "border security" after NBC's Hallie Jackson told Pence that "all the representatives" of previous presidents "have denied that is the case."

And Pence tried to defend Trump's indefensible lie.

“I know the president has said that that was his impression from previous administrations, previous presidents,” Pence said. “I know I’ve seen clips of previous presidents talking about the importance of border security, the importance of addressing the issue of illegal immigration.”

Watch the awkward exchange below:

While border security has been an important issue throughout many administrations, all four living former commanders-in-chief have denied ever speaking to Trump about a border wall.

Many believe that Pence is just lying—as is the expectation of the current administration.

Some are disappointed that the media lets Trump and Pence lie with impunity.

If their mouths are moving...

Following his interview with Jackson, Pence was asked by ABC's Jonathan Karl: “How can the president be, how can his word be trusted on this, when he has said so many things that are just not true about this crisis?”

Pence scoffed, falsely claiming that “the American people aren’t as concerned about the political debate.”

MAGA Fan Has Unhinged Meltdown After Starbucks Barista Doesn't Call Out 'Charlie Kirk' With Her Order

For anyone who isn't familiar with Starbucks ordering protocol, the cashier will ask for a name to put on the cup.

When the order is done, the barista will call out the name on the cup to let the customer know their order is ready. However, if there aren't many people in the store, it's not uncommon for a person to just have their drink handed to them or brought to their table if they're seated.

She steps forward, looks directly into the camera, glances down, then back up again, without uttering a word.

Bad Bunny Hilariously Trolls Fox News Over Their Super Bowl Outrage In 'SNL' Season Opener

Puerto Rican rapper Bad Bunny took aim at Fox News and the conservative outrage over his upcoming Super Bowl halftime show during the season 51 premiere of Saturday Night Live over the weekend, joking that all of his critics have "four months to learn" Spanish if they're that bothered about him singing in his native tongue during football's biggest night.

Bad Bunny will be the first Latin male artist to headline the halftime show, but many of President Donald Trump's supporters have vowed to boycott the event. At least one far-right figure said Bad Bunny "will just further divide the American people" and suggested that either the right-wing performers Kid Rock or Jason Aldean should headline the show instead.
