NEW: Iowa Sen. Charles E. Grassley, the Senate president pro tempore, says he and not Vice President Mike Pence will preside over the certification of Electoral College votes, since "we don't expect him to be there."

Grassley said he will listen to debate and that "it would be really wrong for me to say I have my mind made up."

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.

I wonder, is Mike Pence showing a bit of his integrity? He fully expects the process to be fraught with challenges and dead soul opposition to exposing the fraud. He and Trump are the injured parties in the seditious plot, so he is stepping aside to have an ‘neutral party’ handle the process. That fits The Pence character more than these other accusations.

I don’t disagree with you at all.

Pence does not fight the way POTUS does nor will he.

What excuse would there be for Pence being a “no show”
****************************************
Absolutely NO EXCUSE! Pence had better be there and he’d better be wearing a diaper so he doesn’t have to “step away”.

I’m only half kidding about the diaper.

It would likely be both wrong and truthful at the same time.

I guess we would need an amendment to establish an upper age limit for these bozos.

The Catholic Church has it at 75 for Bishops.

70 sounds right for Congress.

Get the hook.Give the newer generations their chance.

It’s like those 70+ Hollywood actresses who still want to be the romantic leads.
