Summary

Former President Trump said former Vice President Mike Pence is “desperate to chase his lost relevance.” Pence campaigned for incumbent Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp, someone who Trump has repeatedly criticized for certifying the 2020 election results in a state he lost to President Biden. CNN Political Analyst Maggie Haberman is the Washington Correspondent for The New York Times and has covered the former President for years. She tells Anderson Cooper she thinks Trump is throwing insults because Pence said he’s not ruling out a run for president in 2024. Plus, authorities are looking for a Texas woman who is suspected of killing of an elite cyclist who once dated her boyfriend. CNN National Correspondent Randi Kaye joins AC360 to give an update on the investigation.

Tonight though, Mr. Trump's animosity, whether it's for endorsing camp or not helping overturn

the election of January 6, or both, is out in the open.

is paying attention.

1:05.3

The reality is, President Trump has already 82 and 3 with his endorsements, and there's
