Schiff: Pence Won’t Testify Before January 6 Committee Because ‘He Doesn’t Want to Alienate the Trump Base’

Monday on MSNBC’s “All In,” Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) claimed former Vice President Mike Pence’s refusal to testify for the soon-to-be-defunct January 6 Committee because he was going to run for president and did not want to “alienate” the so-called Trump base.

“Why do you think he’s wrong when he says Congress has no right to his testimony?” MSNBC host Chris Hayes said.

“Because it’s — you know, at its base, the most basic, it’s not about what Congress has a right to — indeed, we do have a right to his testimony,” Schiff replied. “It’s what is his responsibility to the public and to the country. Former presidents have come and testified before Congress, certainly, a former vice president can.”

One of many of Trump’s disastrous picks

If I went back through your posts would I see you posting about Pence being a good pick? /rhetorical question

Too late and I’m one of the few who is okay with Pence’s decision on J6.

I believe he should come to a different conclusion but, I understand how he came to his.

Still, he keeps running his mouth ....

FUMP

(OMG, that’s hilarious!)

Judas Pence should just give it up.

[MrRelevant]

Seriously. Can this man not read the room?

[Salamander]

Unless it just so happened to be the exact height I needed to level a table leg, you could not give me his book.

..or maybe kindling when I can’t afford heat anymore

Even if you could name all of his "many disastrous picks",
Trump still accomplished more in one 4yr term than any other President in yours or Pence's lifetime.

Pence practically begged to be asked. Did anyone ask? Or were they too afraid of what would become of the inquiry?

[philman_36]

I meant that he lost MAGA people when he put out his book.
People will "buy the book" (by/buy), just like x44 said, in a fake PR push.

Oh...He made top 10!...and then fell by over 500 places a week later.
But, Brother, did he ever make bank while there. /sarcasm

They're like pushers pushing junk product.

“He’s a lot too late for that.”

Bif might not understand that...

Pence has already alienated the “Trump base”. For each retelling of January 6, 2021, Pence sees himself more and more the “hero” of the day. He wants to return the GOP to the days of losing “gracefully” to the left. The GOP made a good start on that in the elections earlier this month.

Too late, Mike!

That ship has already sailed, benedict pence is mud in real Republicans’ minds.

If this was on the Internet-I’d state what these LGBT types do to destruct OUR military.

[Lumper20]

was not

Schiff must’ve been in a coma for two years. Pence did that on 1/6/20. He doesn’t know that?

[ronnie raygun]

don’t worry the trump base know your are a treason pri## backstabbing traitor

[sauropod]

Sure thing, Adam.

AFter what Pence said this wknd, I doubt there is much more alienating to occur.
