Mike Pence says ‘Georgia election was not stolen’ in first remarks after Trump’s indictment
NBC News ^ | Aug 16, 2023 | Summer Concepcion and Sarah Dean

Mike Pence, who is running for the Republican presidential nomination, addressed former President Donald Trump’s fourth indictment for the first time on Wednesday.

Speaking at the National Conference of State Legislatures’ Legislative Summit in Indianapolis, Pence condemned Trump’s conduct amid his refusal to concede the 2020 election in the last days of his administration.

“I’ve said many times I had hoped that judgment about those days would be left to the American people and to history. Such is not the case,” he said.

Pence said he believes “it’s important that we hew to the first principles and that we tell the truth to the American people,” which is: “No one is above the law.”

Trump is entitled to his opinion. It’s what he did in addition to opining his opinion that snagged him.

For those few remaining thick skulled mouth breathers who have not yet figured out that Mike Pence was never on our side.

The FBI and GBI have deemed that cheating is just A-OK…

Trump is cleverly building his defense that he had sufficient reasons to question the results of the election

Questioning the results of an election is no crime and never will be, not as long as the First Amendment stands. Attempting to overturn the results of an election is a crime, and there is zero evidence that Trump attempted any such thing. He only questioned the results, and again - that is no crime.

Obviously Pence is a step away from being indicted too - he’s probably being told what they want him to say.

Stacey Abrams would disagree with you, Mikey.

Here is 5 MINUTES of Georgia Democrat Stacey Abrams denying election results.

Trump is cleverly building his defense that he had sufficient reasons to question the results of the election; a reasonable doubt defense.
*********
Trump did not need to have “sufficient reasons” to question the fairness of the election. It’s a part of free speech.

My take too. I would go so far to say that he cut a deal to avoid prosecution for his documents…

And when he says no one is above the law, he is trying to legitimize and give credence to the charges in Atlanta.

What do you expect from a politician seeking the presidency. Throwing the #1 contender under the bus and hopefully in prison is a smart political move - something we expect from an attorney, which Pence is.

Why do attorneys make better lab animals than rats? Because ..... "There are some things that rats won't do!" Pence fits the bill!

“How could anyone vote for a man that is so disloyal to his former boss? Pious Pence is a hypocrite and just another sleazy politician.”

Pence/Barr 2024? /sarc
