“He asserts that the rioters on January 6, 2021, were authoritarians of the right. That is, they sought to overthrow the constitutional means by which we pass power peacefully from one president and party to the next. But those authoritarians, he says, were checked by other members of the political right — Vice President Mike Pence most conspicuously.”
“overthrow”???!!!!
The mob thought they were protesting.
Pence did not stop the mob, he stopped the Constitutional mandated state legislatures who were trying to stop the steal.
Shapiro is trying to conform media and democrat talking points into a matter of record.
“ he stopped the Constitutional mandated state legislatures who were trying to stop the steal”
Ben Shapiro is an evil little weasel BUT no State Legislature - NOT ONE - took any legal or constitutional action - WHICH THEY WERE ABSOLUTELY ENTITLED TO DO - to stop the steal.
