Wrong on your part.. Pence could have walked away and said F you... if that happened:

The framers of the Constitution assumed that the vice president would preside over the Senate on a regular basis, so the Senate would only need to elect a president pro tempore to fill in as presiding officer for short periods of time. That office was created in 1789.

In the absence of the vice president, the president pro tempore may administer all oaths required by the Constitution, may sign legislation, may jointly preside with the Speaker of the House when the two houses sit together in joint sessions or joint meetings, and may fulfill all other obligations of the presiding officer. Unlike the vice president, however, the president pro tempore cannot vote to break a tie in the Senate.

Not wrong at all. I did not suggest in my response to you that there would be any legal results of Pence telling them all to go f*** themselves, I said that he would have put the correct historical light on the corrupt Biden administration by starting it with a legitimacy scandal.

Could this have made the Biden Administration worse than it is now? I very greatly doubt anything could be worse than what we have now.

It is important for the public to know that Biden's "election" is utterly tainted and corrupt. It is also important for history.

As for the Law, it's still an @$$ isn't it?
