Former Vice President Mike Pence issued a statement Tuesday evening on the indictment of his former boss and now presidential campaign rival President Trump for contesting the 2020 election and lobbying state officials, Congress and Pence about the election. Pence said he has not reviewed the indictment.
Trump strongly lobbied Pence to accept challenges to state election results and give those states time to review their elections when he presided over the joint session of Congress on January 6, 2021. Pence rejected Trump’s pleas, disagreeing with Trump’s saying he had the legal authority to do so under the Electoral Count Act of 1887.
Today’s indictment serves as an important reminder: anyone who puts himself over the Constitution should never be President of the United States
I will have more to say about the government’s case after reviewing the indictment. The former president is entitled to the presumption of innocence but with this indictment, his candidacy means more talk about January 6th and more distractions.
As Americans, his candidacy means less attention paid to Joe Biden’s disastrous economic policies afflicting millions across the United States and to the pattern of corruption with Hunter.
“Our country is more important than one man. Our constitution is more important than any one man’s career.
On January 6th, Former President Trump demanded that I choose between him and the Constitution. I chose the Constitution and I always will.
.... Snip....
Reporters observed it appears Pence gave evidence in the case, “Lots of evidence in the indictment appears to come directly from @Mike_Pence”
.... Snip....
“Pence called Trump to wish him a Merry Christmas on Christmas and Trump pressed him on rejecting electoral votes.”

Double bonus pun points for you.
Guaranteed: Mike Pence will be US Ambassador to Ireland in the next Dem administration.
FU Pence
Trump didn’t, Mikey.
Pence is a traitor and his robotical self righteous stance makes him a most repugnant puke. America now sees him for who he is but he has not yet realized his act no longer works. The more he opens his mouth the more he exposes himself.

I’s like to know who is the person/s encouraging Pence, maybe even paying him with money or promises.
My God. How low will this man go? I am so angry at him.
And yet there are still people who will say “Well at least a republican like Pence is better than a Democrat!”
Hey Judas Pence, are you referring to the Constitution that guarantees President Trump's right to freedom of speech?
Does anyone think Pence has ever read the Constitution?
Dork. Just shut up already. No one gives a smelly obama what you think Mikey. You’re not the right guy, we need a fighter.

And just how do you propose for that to happen?
Have him removed from the ballots?
Trump isn't the Anti-Christ, so why root for the ones that fraudulently stole his 2nd term from US? Just to give us the finger for daring to put him there in the first place?
He said he would someday put down exposing the corruption as one of his greatest achievements.
Why side with those that don't want it exposed?
~Easy
Right on the money
Pence has been uncovered as a full fledged card carrying neocon. He’s out of the will for good.
Pence is certainly not running to win the GOP nomination for President. He is alienating most true conservatives and he has no genuine base of voters. So, why is he running? He could fade away, work for a “think-tank”, write books for a lot of money, and be considered a former VP and “principled statesman”. Instead, he is running for President on a campaign with so little support that it will not even qualify him for the first debate (from what I’ve read recently).
Someone is dangling something in front of him to have him run for President and constantly criticize both his former boss and his supporters. What happened to the guy who spoke such conservatives phrases, advocated for conservatives principles, and promoted Trump’s policies. I’m reminded of Judas and his thirty pieces of silver.
Pence is becoming more odious every day.
