That’s my feeling, too. Pence has sais several times that this could go to Jan. 20 or beyond.
Pence can be trusted absolutely. Trump chose him very deliberately for his loyalty, love of country, and because he cannot be bought.
And throughout the last four years Pence has proved his loyalty, integrity and ability (especially in managing the federal interface with the States during Covid 19).
Pence was not chosen for any political reason, other than to rightly protect the MAGA goals and support the President.
History will show the choice of Pence as VP to be the first and wisest decision of the Trump Presidency.
I never trusted Pence and I had wished Trump would dump him for his second term. If he had he could have found a good conservative female, even a black one, and he may have won despite of the cheat. I also said he should had done the $2000 stimulus checks before the election which would have also kept him in office. I don’t know how much Trump paid his advisors but I would have done it for free and he would have been reelected despite of the cheating. Now he is depending on a doddering old fool for a lawyer which is another mistake. He never should have hired Rudy or any members of his family.
