Why It Matters: The former Vice President has made his stance clear that he will not endorse Trump based on “differences in conservative values,” as highlighted in an interview with Fox News.

Moreover, Trump’s recent efforts to recast the narrative of the January 6 Capitol riot have raised concerns about historical revisionism and its impact on American democracy. Trump has been portraying the convicted rioters as political prisoners, a stance that has been supported by some of his allies.
