Pence, who came under fire from President Trump for refusing to stop the electoral college count, received a « rousing » reception at his office in the Eisenhower Executive Office Building, the official said > There he added his signature to a wooden drawer in Theodore Roosevelt’s desk in his ceremonial office – a tradition that goes back to President Harry Truman.
