Former Vice President Mike Pence reacted to reports that cocaine was found in the White House this week.
During an interview on Wednesday, host Hugh Hewitt asked Pence about reports that said cocaine was discovered in a White House common area.
"If cocaine had been found in the Trump-Pence West Wing, what would the news cycle look like today?" Hewitt wondered.
"Unbelievable," Pence replied. "It would be wall to wall [coverage]. And frankly, it should be."
"I mean, if the news accounts I read are right, this was not in the White House complex, right?" he added. "This was in the residence itself, if I understand."
Pence said he wanted "to know in real-time who brought and left cocaine on a table in the residence in the White House."
"But I'm not holding my breath," he remarked.
Hewitt pointed out that Pence had been misinformed about the cocaine being found in the White House residence.
"No, I've seen some other reporting that's in a workspace in the West Wing," the host told Pence. "Either way, it would have been 24-7 on every cable channel, and they would be getting leaks from everywhere except your staff, which never leaked."
