Jimmy Kimmel made fun of former Vice President Mike Pence’s vow to fight a grand jury subpoena for the Justice Department probe into former President Donald Trump’s plot to overturn the 2020 election.

On Thursday, Kimmel aired footage of Pence saying: “For me, this is a moment where you have to decide where you stand, and I stand on the Constitution of the United States.”

Via some clever editing, the camera then panned down to show Pence appearing to actually stand on a copy of the Constitution.

“You know, you shouldn’t do that,” joked Kimmel. “You’re going to get it dirty and mother will not approve.”
