Former Vice President Mike Pence said Sunday on NBC’s “Meet the Press” that former President Donald Trump asked him to violate his oath to the Constitution on January 6, 2021.
Pence said, “I write did it in the book, I will never forget, it was the night before January 6, the president and I were alone in the office in what was ultimately a tense conversation. I had made my position clear, as vice president, I did not believe I had the authority to return or reject electoral votes when the House convened to count the electoral votes, but there was great tension in the room. At the outset, I remember the president looking at me and he pointed at the window of the crowd that was gathering just off the South Lawn and in the Ellipse and he said, did you see that crowd out there? I said, I did, Mr. President. He said those people love us. I said those people love you. He said that is probably true. I looked at him very seriously and I said do those people love the Constitution? Because I believe Republican voters and the Republican Party’s future is ultimately grounded in us producing men and women who will stand up for ideal enshrined in the Constitution and the Declaration, ideals Ronald Reagan stood for without apology and our that the carried or movement forward for generations.”

Shut up Pence. You’re an Establishment guy.
LMAO
Thomas Jefferson disagrees…. Unless Pence is speaking of some other Constitution.
Did some states submit a separate elector list\counts?
I don’t remember that!
Shut your lying dishonest traitorous face. You’d make a good project for someone’s science project-—a shrunken head.
The RINO stink is so strong that even clothing himself in the Constitution does not mask Pence’s perfidity.
Yes Pence does have the Constitutional authority in the process to examine the alternate slates of electors given the irregularities of the election. He had that duty doubled because the courts refused to hear any of the election cases based on standing, and the civil cases would not even go to discovery to see the facts of the stolen election. Therefore the Judicial branckh refused to examine the problem, making Pence’s duty even more important.
Pence has no fire in his belly. He is essentially a coward.
For this reason he will never be President.
Pence betrayed Trump.And he is still betraying Trump. So who will vote for him? Aunt Jemima?
I read awhile back that he and his best bud, Ryan, were going to run together in Oct. 2016 to take Trump out then. I don’t know if it is true but they seem very aligned and very determined to take over. I would never vote for any of these people. I would stay home.
Pence is swamp trash.
we knew that in 2016, we know it know.
He stands less of a chance at getting elected Pres. then McStain ever did
He asked you to refuse to certify until the disputes were investigated.
That’s very different you lying cowardly sack.
His interpretation of the constitution is correct.
I’m laughing very hard at the first one on your list. Do they mean like Biden and Obama and Hillary? Oh, brother.
“The President and I were alone”
How convenient.
Mike, if you believe that you violated your Constitutional Oath by voting to accept electors you knew were fraudulent, then you’re a bigger fraud than I thought. You actually compromised the national security of this country, the security of its election process, and you disenfranchised millions of legal voters when you decided to go along to get along on January 6th. You could have temporarily rejected those electors, sent them back to the States with the questionable electors, and let the State Legislatures sort it out, but you didn’t do that. Even if it turned out that no fraud had occurred, wouldn’t it have been better to be safe rather than sorry, and at least try to prevent fraud from taking over? But you didn’t even have the guts to try. And you want to be President? What a joke. Everyone knows, even you Mike, that if it was the Democrats claiming election fraud, and the Vice President was a Democrat, that he would have done exactly what you should have done.
If the Deep State sinks Trump they are going to learn what losing big really means. They need to let the people decide on Trump by the recognized method, the nomination process.
PRESIDENT TRUMP commissioned a board to do this, but few states or legislators wanted change. "Can't clean up the dirty dishes with dirty water."
Mike IS Jeff Sessions with designer hair.
Because of Pence, and the rest of the go along to get along Republicans who voted to validate those fraudulent electors. Every single Republican Congressional member who voted to validate what they knew were illegal electors, disenfranchised hundreds of thousands, and possibly millions of legal Republican voters. Once elections reach the point where your party refuses to question the legality of an election, and will accept fraudulent electors, makes them complicit in the illegal activity that occurred. So why continue to support that party if they will throw you and your vote aside as if you don't matter?
He'll wake up when he sees he has about 1% of the voters interested in voting for him.
He's just ANOTHER DUMBA$$ RINO!
He failed to do his constitutional duty. He was well within his right to kick everything back to the states. He should have. Pennsylvania, Georgia, Wisconsin, Arizona, and nevada, amd Michigan were all violating state laws.
yeah? then WHY dd the RATS just talk about a bill that would PREVENT the VP from doing what you said you couldn’t do???
