Asked Friday morning to respond to the powerful rebuke of Donald Trump delivered a day earlier in a speech by first lady Michelle Obama, Indiana Gov. Mike Pence said “I don’t understand the basis of her claim.”
Speaking at a Hillary Clinton campaign rally in New Hampshire, the first lady deviated from her usual stump speech, instead delivering emotional remarks in a call to action for women against Trump. Her voice breaking at times, she condemned Trump without ever mentioning his name, decrying vulgar remarks he made in 2005 about sexual assault.
“This was not just a lewd conversation, this wasn’t just locker room banter,” the first lady said, a reference to Trump’s defense that his comments were just “locker room talk.” “This was a powerful individual speaking freely and openly about sexually predatory behavior.”
“CBS This Morning” co-anchor Norah O’Donnell presented Pence with that particularly powerful segment of Obama’s speech, asking Pence if the first lady’s characterization of the Manhattan billionaire’s past remarks made him uncomfortable.
