Mike Pence will skip the country as soon as he formally confirms Joe Biden's victory on January 6 with week-long foreign tour to avoid face-to-face confrontation with Donald Trump and angry supporters.
Vice President Mike Pence is expected to leave the country on a week-long world tour, directly after he formally confirms President-elect Joe Biden's victory on the House floor on January 6.
Politico reported Thursday that Pence is eyeing a trip abroad that week that would take him to Bahrain, Israel and Poland, though the trip hasn't been officially confirmed.
'I suspect the timing is anything but coincidental,' a Pence ally told the newsite.
Pence, who as vice president is also president of the Senate, will be put in the awkward position of presiding over a January 6 session of the House of Representatives where the Electoral College vote tallies are confirmed.
Republicans could delay the final sign-off if one member of the House and one member of the Senate challenges any of the state's results.
Then members of the House and Senate will go back to their respective chambers and debate the challenge, but only a majority vote is needed to overrule any objection.
So while GOP lawmakers could delay the inevitable, Pence will eventually have to announce Biden's win.
That could lead President Donald Trump to unleashing on Pence, as he has Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, who has been a top ally to the president during his nearly four years in office, but congratulated Biden for winning the White House Tuesday on the Senate floor.

PATRIOT PING
Consider the source...
More made up bullshit.
Said it here since Trump picked Pence as his running mate: I’ve never trusted Pence and nothing he has done since has caused me to waver. He was the leader of COVID task force which was specifically run to undermine Trump. Once deep state always deep state. Also, anyone who counts Jeff Flake as a close friend is either corrupt or the world’s poorest judge of character. He is a snake with a pious public persona.
Mike Pence will do no such thing. This is psyops to force Mike Pence to do what they want him to do. They only care about the ‘confirm’ part. They don’t care what he does after that.
Baloney.
Why would the Daily Mail know this?
A WEEK long world tour. Won’t see much of the World in a week.
Mike Pence will be confirming Donald Trump as the continuing 45th president of the USA.
Easy. They don't.
Fake News.
We're in a deadly game of chicken here. Trump, IMO is waiting for his slate of electors to be certified. But I don't trust Pence. But Trump doesn't want to initiate the Insurrection Act before the electors are certified.
Guys, as a side note, please stock up on basic necessities for a month.
Guess what. Mike Pence has 2 sets of electoral votes from 7 swing states to choose from.
Boy, they are dreaming.
What a load of codswallop.
Right now the only one who knows how this is going to
run is Donald Trump.
The Daily Mail knows? Don’t make me laugh!
Exactly...They are an anti-Trump rag anyway...
All articles from Daily Mail should be banned on FR.
Censorship: it cuts both ways.
By article’s logic Pence could as well anoint Trump’s 2nd term then go on tour to avoid the Antifa/BLM riots until Trump has had time to put them down.
Not only is this fake, but it’s gay
Maybe.
But I’ve always said that Pence is a cuck and is, in a way, directly responsible for this culture war that practically caught fire when he surrendered to the RFRA battle in Indiana after only one week and this led to the Indy GOPs purge of all conservative elements - see most recently the AG Curtis Hill whom the GOP and the DNC joined forces to both smear him in the press with fake sexual escapades and then deny him the chance to rerun for the AG position. (Did I mention he was black? The press seems to curiously not care about that fact because he’s not of the proper ideology.)
Throughout the past 4 years Pence has paid lip service to Trump support but has never gone on the attack.
Which is a long winded way of saying... it’s possible. I don’t believe the source and Pence could recover his reputation and actually defend Christianity by doing it. But I wouldn’t put stock in it.
If true, it is concerning, to say the least.
DS Coats was his pick.
