John Lauro, an attorney representing former President Trump in his federal case on charges of attempting to overturn the 2020 election, has stated that he is eager to cross examine former Vice President Mike Pence in the upcoming Jan. 6 trial. 

Lauro believes that Pence’s testimony will completely eliminate any doubt that Trump firmly believed that the election irregularities had led to inappropriate results. However, Pence has said that he has no plans to testify in the trial against Trump.
