The vice president said, “If it happened again, he might make an effort to speak out about it.”

Pence said, “Millions of Americans share the president’s frustration” with the “reckless rhetoric” that he said has been used by Omar and Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y.; Ayanna Pressley, D-Mass.; and Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich. Collectively, the four liberal congresswomen are known as “the Squad.”
