Former Vice President Mike Pence on Monday pushed back on former President Trump’s assertion that the Constitution should be disregarded to allow for him to return to the White House in the wake of new revelations about Twitter’s handling of a controversial story about Hunter Biden.
“I must tell you that I think that everyone that serves in public office, everyone that aspires to serve or serve again should make it clear that we will support and defend the Constitution of the United States,” Pence said on WVOC radio in Columbia, S.C., ahead of a visit to the state on Tuesday.
The former vice president, who has said he is contemplating a 2024 presidential bid, noted that every federal official takes an oath to uphold and defend the Constitution.
Pence added that he believes he upheld his oath to defend the Constitution throughout his four years as Trump’s vice president, particularly in the final weeks of his term as Trump pressured him to reject the 2020 election results.

Trump didn’t say that, but he shouldn’t have said that.

Pontius Pence who is best pals with Paul Ryan whom I heard this morning repeatedly blocked Kash Patel’s investigation attempts into Hillary Clinton, DNC, FBI, Hunter Biden’s laptop when he was speaker. Bad dudes.

They keep pushing this narrative in the hopes that just one person acts on it. What follows would be horrific.

Pence is a traitor to the Constitution and thinks it will save him.

Trump didn’t ask that the constitution be suspended.
Media not only lie, they build entire novels from their lies.
And they get away with it.

He should have been more clear. He must know by now that if anything he says can be twisted around they will do it.

Judas pence FAILED to defend the Constitution. Judas had ONE job... and failed. Now he acts like he’s a defender of the Constitution. What a loser! Pence was their “insurance policy” to sabotage trump.
