Don't worry. I am confident Trump will pick a squishy RINO
I believe Trump wants Tim Scott as Senate Majority Leader when McConnell leaves in 2027.
It's not just Freepers, this type of thinking is common with hosts on NewsMax and RAV, etc. But to be honest, no "fraud" (an actual legal term) was ever presented back then, or even since. The state legislatures all certified their electors, which is where protests are to be settled. The US Congress is just a ceremonial process, that's necessary to make it official.
And Congress had nothing they could really hold on to, to justify not accepting the state's appointed electors. To this day there's still not one first hand witness to any wide scale cheating. Doesn't mean cheating didn't happen, but you would need some real evidence like that to disavow the electors that the states all sent to be counted by Congress.
Had Pence even tried to block the counting, both him and Trump would have been immediately impeached, and removed from office. They impeached Trump anyway just for calling a protest that day, but he wasn't removed because the electoral college vote did actually go through.
There's no doubt there were "irregularities" that needed investigation, and the time to investigate before the electoral college was unfortunately short. But you can't not follow the Constitution in times of crisis like that. That's what this country is based on. And after all this time there still is nothing concrete you can hang your hat on that proves the election was stolen. That's why more and more people like Scott are still saying they did the right thing by certifying the state's electors, as the Constitution REQUIRES.

He’s not bright enough, and he’s shown his propensity to join up with the Deep State against Trump.
.
Wonder why ole Pence is so quiet about Biden’s crimes and his $30 Million?
Those still defending Traitor Pence should wonder why the Pence’s have zero harsh judgments about the Bidens and sleeping with your brother’s wife and showering with his daughter who later says it caused emotional damage in her life?
Thats always the question - why do they love Joe?
Where are all those moral judgements when it comes to the Bidens?
.
You are a blind fool.
I was thinking that Scott just found out that he is not the VP pick.
Another Deep State puppet is revealed.
Guess who’s off the short list . . .
The DOPE ANSWERED A DOPEY QUESTION!!! He should have just LAUGHED at him!!!
dead meat rotting.
screw that RINO warmongering Scott.
Vance and Carson look like good candidates
BINGO!!!!
Tim Scott is a WUSS....and he might be a member of Linda Graham’s club!
Get real......pretty sure Trump has learned his lesson!
I love him
Certification in this instance also served retroactively to sanate a corrupt process that served up a victor, in Brandon, who apparently did, in fact, flat-out steal the election from PDJT.
Meaning: Brandon was rewarded for his corrupt efforts with a four-year term as a legitimate POTUS.
It’s tough for law-and-order types like This Guy to swallow but it does bring finality.
Looked at in this light, Scott’s unforced action in voting to certify was specifically and undeniably political in nature. Which does not necessarily make it a bad act. However, it certainly reeks of an inveterate go-along-to-get-along attitude to federal governance.
Anyone with logic and reasoning skills could figure out the outcome of the 2020 election was totally bogus.
“Pence could have delayed the certification until the irregularities were looked into.”
You, sir, have a correct answer. There may be others, but yours is likely the best.
Whether or not there is at least some discretion in the hands of the VPrexy was an open question, and, because Pence took the ceremonial route, remains an open question.
Reasonable minds can disagree. Senator Scott’s obviously did.
At least in This Guy’s opinion.
