 In a February interview with ABC News, Vance reiterated his past statements that the 2020 election was stolen from Trump. Do I think there were problems in 2020? Yes, I do. Vance also said had he been vice president then, he would not have immediately certified President Joe Biden's victory. The Biden campaign seized on those comments in criticism of Vance's nomination as VP, stating that Vance was willing to break the law to enable Trump and the MAGA agenda.
