JD Vance stated that individuals who committed violence during the Capitol attack should not be pardoned, emphasizing, "If you committed violence on that day, obviously you should not be pardoned." This was a stark deviation from Trump's initial stance to consider pardoning all involved.
Despite his earlier statements, Vance indicated off-air that some pardons for those convicted in the January 6 attack were still being considered, highlighting the administration's focus on those who faced unfair trials and harsh sentences as a result of a 'corrupt system.'
Trump reiterated his belief that the judicial treatment of Capitol attackers was egregious, calling the legal system 'very corrupt' and promising to address the sentencing of those involved, stating, 'their whole lives have been destroyed.'
