Former President Donald Trump shot back at his former Vice President Mike Pence on Friday after Pence said that Trump was “wrong” in claiming he had the ability as vice president to overturn the 2020 election, calling the notion of one man electing the president “un-American.”
In a fiery statement Friday night, Trump criticized Pence and his “unwitting advisors,” calling the former vice president “an automatic conveyor belt” for Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell for refusing to intervene in Biden’s election.

But there’s nothing Pence could have done about it.
***There was plenty he could have done by calling attention to the fraud. That’s why the founding fathers put that last little input into the process into the constitution. They had no time for ceremonial bullshiite.
Standing.
Perhaps he should be the first to suffer Article III, Section 3, Clause 1. I can name more than two witnesses. 550 cord might be the method.
Finding basic evidence of fraud whas a highschool homework assignment in Excel. Those in government, academia, activism, etc.. largely ingored it. What Trump did, more than anything, was show voters willing to look how corrupt our society has become.
Sorry if I sound preachy about this. This stuff gets me going.
Pence says “jump,” Trump quickly responds with “how high?”
It is tiresome.
you are correct the gopE bunch are in a no win situation.
you to may be a gopE, we will find out when you go to the pols in the primaries. Anyone voting for a currently sitting representative - at any level is by definition a gopE supporter. Might as well vote in the D primary
I think you got it backwards. No one is talking about Pence, even now, unless it’s in juxtaposition to Trump.

“Pence trolls Trump and Trump takes the bait.”
Good. What part of the Dems stole the election don’t you understand, or would you rather bury your head in the sand and not know?
“I have no doubt that Biden is in the White House now due to widespread vote fraud and ballot harvesting - hopefully the voting reform measures taken by multiple states will help, but who knows. But there’s nothing Pence could have done about it. I don’t care about Pence and don’t care if I ever hear from him again. But the anger at him is absurd and misplaced”
Exactly,
Trump isn’t helping matters, by changing his position from sending something back to get looked at, to overturning an election.
His use of language is helping cause the confusion, as well as him not providing a scenario where this gambit would’ve “bore or borne fruit.” (It wouldn’t have worked because the democrats had the votes to defeat any “send back” or “overturn” action)
I say this as a guy who will ‘write in’ Trump for the Republican nomination & General Election in 2024, regardless if he runs and is on any ballots.
Wasn’t it for some crap reason like “they didn’t have standing?”
Pence’s speech SET UP the notion that Trump wanted HIM to overthrow the election-— completely BS premise. Pence’s job (which the dems are now trying to wrap up as being ONLY ceremonial which.it.is.NOT) was to poll Each State’s Legislative Delegates who brought the Boxes of each States Elector’s votes. Those Electoral votes were in DISPUTE in 6 States, and these were already KNOWN to Pence.
Pelosi and the dems created the “RIOT” to chicken shite Pence out of a simple Chairmanship role-—and to get him not to entertain ANY OBJECTIONS raised by each of the disputing STATE’s delegation chair. By so doing he IGNORED the Constitution (a duty he SURELY knew, or was advised on) which provides for turning the Election over to the House of Representatives in the event of non- Acceptance of the DISPUTED Electoral results from any of the State’s.
These DISPUTES/OBJECTIONS had just begun, when... timed by Pelosi the CHAOS began.
And after the idiotic “acceptance” there is video of Pence and Nancy Pelosi “bumping elbows” over. Operation successful- Constitution ignored.
Professor Eastman and Mark Levin are quite clear on this FACT.
And the proof of the FACT is that NOW dems are trying to re-write/eliminate the Electoral Counting Act which provides for the turning over of “no winner” situation from that POLLING by the VP on Jan. 6th, turning the decision over to the House.
Had this happened... each State’s House Delegation votes internally, and each State gets ONE vote for President from that internal vote. Since, at that time there are more Republican delegates in enough of the States to vote FOR Trump, the 1 vote/State would have resulted, properly, in Trump’s election.
Pence is a freaking LIAR, and the dems have “something” on him to get him to dance to their Constitution ignoring tune. These are the FACTS.
Louie Gohmert, Jim Jordan and Elise Stefanik are quite clear about this-— Pence is trying to pull the wool over people who are EXPERTS in Constitutional law. It is NOT something that can be changed without a Constitutional Amendment. The Act was done to avoid the VERY deal that was “done” without House Procedure/Constitutional voting— and resulted in the 1876 election with the probable winner of that House vote, Tilden- not being elected President. The “DEAL” of 1876.
I sure appreciate your post. That is how I read the Constitution. Definitely do not like the idea of the federal government dictating to states how to conduct elections in any way not specifically stated in the Constitution.
this idiotic fake honorable “speech” was met at CPAC with dead, dead silence.
Pence is and always has been the Rino/Rockefeller republican Trump was saddled with, just as Reagan was saddled with GHWBush the one termer (who dismantled nearly every part of the Reagan Agenda, and who called the economics... “Voodoo” of Reagan. The Establishment view of that time).
The investigation and results submitted to a Comittie for,review, and theirmresulting ruling would be what overturned the election, not pence’s objection to the votes and cal. For,investigation
Shall be opened....keep going
Yes indeed— the same Deep administrative STATE that knows the Constitution is an impediment (an intended one by the Founders) against their almighty STATISM, unelected by the People in a Constitutional Election.
Their STATISM is being exposed as being completely against our Country, as shown by a perpetual wrangling inside our Country done by intel types with foreign money and influence—also well demonstrated and proven.
onstitutionally, Pence did have that vote to make. He made it, and phooked 73 million Americans.
Ditto to what you said, better than I could have. Thanks.
The FOUNDERs intended this process to keep the Electoral process close to each of the States within the United States, who voted for Electors for a President from their State.
If, in any State that Electoral vote was determined to be invalid or illegal or incorrect, the FOUNDERS put in place the defense mechanism against fraudulent voting in any one State nullifying the rest of the State’s Electoral votes— and preventing the election of a President by a National FACTION.
Alexander Hamilton and others modeled the Electoral College on the European model that came about to defeat the hundreds of years of Faction rule and Monarchism.
