Matt Gaetz said he was "disappointed" in Vice President Mike Pence when he did not attempt to overturn the results of the 2020 election.

Gaetz detailed his final meeting in the White House with Pence. He said those in favor of overturning the election had assembled "substantive arguments" that they "thought would be persuasive to state legislatures who were looking for a signal to take more aggressive action to not maintain the fiction of elections that were not run fairly."

But Pence didn't bite, Gaetz said.

"I knew then that he was not going to show a great deal of boldness before the Congress," said Gaetz, prompting Bannon to ask whether it was because Pence "didn't understand the content of what had gone on."

"It was more just the defeatism in his eyes and the tone. It reminded me of those George W. Bush years, where there was just kind of an exasperation that we had to surrender to the frame of the media, the powers that be, and that we didn't have the ability to carve out our own destiny."
