“According to President Trump, VP Pence has the power to reject fraudulently chosen electors.”

Think about this folks. If the VP gets to decide what votes to count, what about the next election when the VP is a democrat? Do you really want the VP to have the power to determine the next president? Oh, I know, he said “fraudulently selected”, but seriously, that gives the VP the power to decide who is “fraudulently selected” and that means the VP has the only vote that counts in the next election.

The left will always do the wrong thing in all situations. That shouldn’t influence or prevent the right thing from being done in this situation.

The electors in WI, MI, VA, GA, PA, NV, and AZ were very definitely “fraudulently selected”.

After Biden/Harris, how many Republican Presidents do you see getting elected...regardless of Pence’s actions?

Meant to add, especially if GA “elects” 2 democrat Senators today.

What is being suggested is that VPOTUS refuses to accept the electors, and demands that the state legislatures decide which slate of electors is correct, and if state statutory laws were followed. That is in accordance with the U.S. Constitution that state legislatures appoint the presidential electors, not governors, or state courts. It also removes the Congress of the judge or these elections, and kicks it back to the proper constitutional bodies. The present time schedule, with state legislatures out of session after Election Day, is rather compressed, and doesn't allow sufficient time for legislatures to investigate and act. That could change in the future.
