Apparently some of Trump’s attorneys disagree.

PENCE: The President asked me and his crackpot lawyers asked me to literally reject votes

If it was January 2017 and Joe Biden was the VP presiding over the certification of the 2016 election, those same damn lawyers would insist that there’s no way in hell the VP has any authority to unilaterally reject certified electoral votes from any state.
He pulled a Comey!!
“Never forget, Mike is a man of God!“
So are Jim Bakker, Kenneth Copeland and Joel Osteen…
POS’s like Pence need to be drummed out of the GOP.

If that happened there wouldn’t be enough of them left to field a softball team!
But if this is true, he owed it to trump’s supporters were were upset, he owed it to them to make a public announcement that the vote was legitimate in his eyes and trump was wrong....instead of a “ceremonial act” and silence for 2.5 years!
A giant mansion, dyed pink hair for the missus, and the top slot on TBN.
I think DeSantis has a better chance of recovering than Pence.
What a nothingburger.
Pence has repeatedly maintained he lacked the constitutional authority to send the elections results back to the contested states for review and insisted he saw no evidence of voter fraud swaying the outcome of the 2020 election, a point Smith notes early in the indictment.
The former vice president’s own words prior to the events of the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot, however, seem to contradict his post-vice-presidency narrative.
See here:
Video footage from a public address less than one week prior to the electoral certification on Jan. 6, 2021 shows Pence expressing concerns about election irregularities in the contest and vows to hear the objections of his supporters during the certification process, seemingly suggesting he held a belief in his authority to do so.
“I know we all got doubts about the election. I share the concerns of millions of Americans about voting irregularities,” he told supporters on Jan. 4. “I promise you this Wednesday. We’ll have our day in Congress. We’ll hear the objections. We’ll hear the evidence.”
Summary: first, Pence said, publicly, yea, I’ll look into the 2020 election and sure there do seem to be problems.
Then, he doesn’t do that at all.
If you ever forget Mike’s religion, he’ll be sure to remind you of it. I learned over 50 years ago to be very skeptical of those that wear their religion on their sleeves, even moreso when a politician does it.
