Mr. Pence said he and Mr. Trump, who still claims the election was stolen from him, “have spoken many times since we left office.”
“I don’t know if we’ll ever see eye-to-eye on that day,” Mr. Pence said. “But I will always be proud of what we accomplished for the American people over the last four years.”
Speaking at the annual Hillsborough County Lincoln-Reagan Dinner, Mr. Pence urged the GOP to unite and put the Jan. 6 controversy behind them.
“I will not allow Democrats or their allies in the media to use one tragic day to discredit the aspirations of millions of Americans, or allow Democrats or their allies in the media to distract our attention from a new administration intent on dividing our country to advance their radical agenda,” he said.
