Pence halts Trump supporter who called for 'revolution' if Clinton wins [View all]

Mike Pence has reaffirmed his support for embattled Republican nominee Donald Trump, but that doesn't mean Trump's running mate agrees with everything supporters say.

At a campaign event Tuesday in Newton, Iowa, a woman expressed concern about the possibility of voter fraud on Nov. 8 and the prospect that Hillary Clinton will be elected president.

"Our lives depend on this election. … If Hillary Clinton gets in, I myself, I'm ready for a revolution because we can't have her in,” she said.

"Don't say that," Pence remonstrated.

"But I'm just saying it," she replied.
