John Lauro, an attorney for former President Donald Trump, said former Vice President Mike Pence could save Trump from potentially facing life in prison as well as the death penalty if he testifies.
Lauro noted that Pence could serve as “one of our best witnesses” should he testify in the case against Trump.
This comes after the former Vice President appeared on CBS’ “Face The Nation,” where he told host Margaret Brennan that he has no plans to testify against Trump but will if the law asks him to.
“I have no plans to testify, but people can be confident we’ll obey the law. We’ll respond to the call of the law if it comes, and we’ll just tell the truth,” Pence said.
Despite Pence saying Trump should never be president again — I disagree — Lauro believes the former vice president could deliver key testimony preventing Trump from going to prison, and ultimately, make liberals go crazy.
“ Mike Pence will be one of our best witnesses at trial,” Lauro told ABC’s George Stephanopoulos. “I read his book very carefully, and if he testifies consistent with his book, then President Trump will be acquitted.”
“Number one: Mr. Pence recognizes that John Eastman, who was giving legal advice, was a renowned legal scholar,” Lauro added. “Number two: Vice President Pence recognized that there were discrepancies and fraud in connection with the election. He wanted it to be debated on Capitol Hill; Mr. Trump wanted it to be debated in the state legislatures.”

Exactly. I was thinking of them as well. As matter of fact, no one who testified for the Russian Collusion inquiry said they knew or even thought there was “collusion”, but in public they all lied and said there was.
lol......
I assume the reference to a M119 was sarcasm.
Well done.
Can someone please explain the electoral switch to me? Isn’t that one of the charges?
Pence is such a pompous ass. Looking at him makes me sick.
Please cite your source, that’s the first I heard that. Thanks in advance.
Do your own research. I am not your intern.
Re:20 - Flynn exercised incredibly poor judgment by meeting with the FBI without NSC legal counsel present. He didn’t deserve what happened to him. He needed legal counsel present.
No argument there. At least he serves as an example as to why you don’t talk to the Feds. It cheaper than going to jail.
