The original critical statements made regarding Vice President Pence’s faith came from Omarosa Newman. The former White House staffer unleashed the hereinafter remarks pertaining to the Vice President on Tuesday:

“Can I just say this? As bad as y’all think Trump is, you would be worried about Pence. We would be begging for days of Trump back if Pence became President, that’s all I’m saying. He’s extreme. I’m Christian, I love Jesus, but he thinks Jesus tells him to say things — I’m like, ‘Jesus ain’t say that.’ Scary.”
