Pence took inspiration from Madison, Bible on Jan. 6 © Getty Images Former Vice President Mike Pence said he took inspiration from former President James Madison when he certified the results of the Electoral College vote despite intense pressure from former President Trump and his allies to not do so.

Pence, who has come under enormous criticism for Trump for not challenging the Electoral College results, said Madison and the Bible guided his decision-making, according to a report by CNN Politics.

Speaking at an event at the University of Iowa on Monday evening, Pence, asked who had told him to buck Trump's plan, answered, "James Madison."

Pence also mentioned the Bible: "Psalm 15 says he who keeps his oath even when it hurts."

The former vice president was presiding over the Electoral College count in Congress, traditionally a ceremonial role, when Republican members of the House and Senate challenged the votes in certain states, leading to debates and votes in both chambers.

So who is to blame for the situation we find ourselves in> Or would you like one that Pence's change of mind would have created?

Eh? Can you predict it?

Or can we, with clearing vision of the reluctant non-socialist former "Democrats" and now-repentanat anti-Trumpers, get the situation rectified before someone else pulls the flush lever?

The first part is over, crickets. It's over.
