I’m pretty sure that Pence was in on the whole thing with Pelosi and McConnell. They wanted an event that they could then weaponize against Trump and everyone who voted for him. That’s why only half of the Capitol Police were on duty, that’s why the National Guard wasn’t there or any meaningful barriers around the capitol. Did Pence ever raise the issue with Pelosi and McConnell or did he just go along with their plan?

They’re an oligarchy. And we’re not allowed in. But we got one past the goalie, so it was all shoulders against the wheel to get things back to “normal.”

That meant anything was justified.

“I had no right to overturn the election.”

This is pretty much an ADMISSION that he knew the election had been rigged.

NOBODY axed him to “overturn” the election, but to have the irregularities looked into.

He KNEW that, doing that would change the results.

This is politician-speak. Rush taught us to decipher it..

No one of authority asked you to overturn anything. There is an orderly Constitutional process for dealing with that specific issue.

Thank you for pointing out that particular lie repeated by Mr. Pence. He could have simply followed the example of other previous elections where the acceptance of the votes of electors was debated, and even voted upon by the Senate.

“It was a mistake for candidate Trump to select him as running mate.”

**************

Trump picked a lot of people who didn’t work out well.

He did great things for the country, but his people choices were often bad. He really needs to be more discerning.

In picking Pence, Trump was probably playing to the Christian vote. I totally agree with you that it was a mistake.

And the name Pence will be recorded alongside that of Benedict Arnold and Vidkun Quisling with all the rest of history’s traitors.

Yah, F**Off traitor. You had option to exercise VPres powers to turn away corrupt Electors but wimped out when your FBI-staged J6 invasion distracted everybody.

How deep is the swamp? He was the “life insurance” the commies knew they had all along. Pence needs to be in prison.

Chilling dystopian future: GOP ticket of Pence with an affirmative action box checking VP
versus Dem ticket of Michelle Obama and Newsom.

Trump and DeSantis running on minor party startups on the ballots in a few states.

All Romney for President versus Obama voters are still in regret mode.

Next election after that will have Chinese Communist Prez and Soros son VP with nationally controlled election vote counting.

Maybe TV series for this could be I Envy The Dead.

He is of course correct since history is written by the winners. The Democrats seized the issue and killed free speech and the right to assemble thereby controlling history

We and our leaders have done nothing

Agree

And somehow Pence seems to think the Leftist Media will pat him on the back and love him like Romney and other traitors. They and the Dems in Congress don't seem to be signing on, though.

He'll need a lot of Chapstick after all the rear end kissing he'll need to do.

The last Presidential candidate who was so sanctimonious about not cheating on his wife was Jimmy Carter. Maybe Pence should follow Carter's example and get interviewed by Playboy. But Playboy probably wouldn't be interested in interviewing him.

Pence doesn't hurt his chances of getting the nomination by attacking Trump, because they are already zero.

>> Why lump Dan Quayle in with Mike Pants?

They are two of the five U.S. Vice Presidents from Indiana.

+++++++++++++

I didn’t know that Quayle came from Indiana. So, what exactly is your point about being a VP from Indiana?
