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.”

No he asked you to hold off certifying an obviously flawed election until it was properly reviewed.
Keep digging mikee. 🚜
Pence. Nobody cares.
Does this RINO actually plan on running against Trump in 2024? Bwahahaha
*rolls eyes*
every single time an executive REFUSES to enforce the law they are violating their oath of office!!!!
Biden refusing to go after illegals? is a violation of his oath of office!
Biden refusing to go after drug dealers in state that have legalized drugs - is a violation of his oath of office!
I could go on and on!
Has Pence even once spoken about electoral fraud? Has he even once proposed measures to prevent future fraud? No?
No.
The first debate should be fun. I’m totally looking forward to watching Trump disembowel this rat fink.
Pence is a fool and has no business running for the Presidency.
But the democrats violate their oath daily. What a uniparty @$$.
We’re stuck with Pence forever. Great pick.
Look who is President now.
Mike Pence is not only a POS, he’s a liar. I highly doubt he lectured Trump on the Constitution and the future of the Republican Party.
You’re RIGHT!!!!
And Pence will NEVER run for President!! He’s MUCH too weak, as he proved on Jan 6!!!!
Pence had been an ambidextrous paycheck grabber all his life until Trump picked him. There is zero discernible history of Pence being a RISK TAKER. Arguably, he never did.
Then, when it came time to take a risk and make a REAL DECISION, he just couldn’t do it!
desperately trying to be relevant
we have an oversupply of republicans who surrender
enjoy your retirement mike
And VP rubber spine did not know that before Jan. 6th?
Pence is a putz.
Correct— and Mikey ole boy— there were 181 Congress members with already filed MOTIONS to NOT certify their own State’s Electors and their “decision”. Which, Mikey ole cock— WAS EXACTLY your Constitutional duty to acknowledge as the Chairman of the Hearing. The Electoral Act of 1885 was and IS NOT a Constitutional Amendment— it is a Law.. made by the then ancient times Congress.
Should be noted- that the crazed LEFT is trying in the Lame Duck Session to “rewrite” and “Pass” a NEW Electoral Act— because of what Pence almost SHOULD have DONE! This is how the Marxists roll. We must keep an eye on them this month and a half! Seriously!
