Good theory.
There had to have been a very good reason for Trump to call people to DC on the 6th. At first I thought it was to celebrate with him. But he sounded like he knew Pence would do him dirty.
Then I thought he wanted to show Pence and the Repubs the crowd of people who backed him and shame them into doing the right thing that day. Of course I see now that was naive of me.
But there had to be a good reason for calling everyone there. Providing cover for a “get more evidence op” is smart.
Praying.
Trump and Pence met one on one at the White House about 1/3 or 1/4.
