A Grassley spokesman clarifies that the senator does not "have any indication Pence won't be present." Grassley, he said, was just trying to explain that at president pro tempore of the Senate, he would fill the chair if Pence does not show or steps out at points for a break https://t.co/iS8Wb7Yfpy— Nicholas Fandos (@npfandos) January 5, 2021

Follow up tweet:

“Grassley’s office clarifies that he was meaning to explain what would happen if Pence had to step away during Wednesday’s proceedings to count Electoral College votes. “Every indication we have is that the vice president will be there,” Grassley’s office said.”

Ok. Just getting ready for a VP Potty break!

I suppose that that will happen...as we all hope... while congress debates the issue of a 10 day delay OR whether to reject the electors.

We watch.
