Vice President Mike Pence bid farewell to his supporters in a message on Twitter on Tuesday, his final full day in office. But there was something missing from the text and images he shared: any reference to President Donald Trump:

Earlier this month, Trump leaned on Pence to overturn the election results, but it’s a power the vice president does not have.

“You can either go down in history as a patriot or you can go down in history as a pussy,” Trump taunted the vice president, per The New York Times.

Pence refused and when the president’s supporters attacked the Capitol during the certification of the election results on Jan. 6, some of them chanted “Hang Mike Pence!”

The Washington Post reported that the mob came “perilously close” to reaching the vice president.

Trump did not call Pence during the attack and waited hours before releasing a half-hearted statement that urged supporters to stop the assault on democracy.

Sen. Jim Inhofe (R-Okla.) said Pence was livid over the events.
