Former Vice President Mike Pence delivered his harshest rebuke yet of former President Donald Trump over the weekend for his role in the Jan. 6 Capitol riot.
Pence made the comments while speaking at the annual Gridiron Club Dinner, a white-tie event thrown by Washington, D.C. journalists and attended by high-profile Beltway figures. The exclusive soiree is known for politicians poking fun at each other and members of the D.C. press corps taking part in skits. This year featured speeches from Pence, Secretary of State Antony Blinken and New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy. The former vice president used the platform to issue his strongest criticism to date of his ex-boss as the two inch toward their anticipated 2024 rivalry.

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?
You are one sad man and pathetic
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..
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.
Seriously.....Mike Pence is nothing but an empty suit minus a
functioning brain!!! His fifteen minutes of fame are long gone!!!
Pence has DEAD EYES....and now seems like a DEAD SOUL! HOW could he not SEE the TRUTH of what happened??
“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.
LOL.
They all are.
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.
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?
