Former Vice President Mike Pence said that he and then-President Donald Trump “could have done a better job” keeping the federal debt in check, NBC News reports.
Said Pence: “The trillions of dollars that we appropriated for families and businesses and health care in this country during Covid — it’s what government’s for during a time of national emergency. But let me stipulate… we could have done a better job of controlling spending under our administration.”
