Pence says ‘history will hold Donald Trump accountable’ for Jan. 6th
Washington Post ^ | March 11, 2023 | Ben Terris

Posted on 03/11/2023 9:42:05 PM PST by MinorityRepublican

In a speech Saturday night, former vice president Mike Pence delivered what amounted to his strongest rebuke of Donald Trump, criticizing the former president for his role in the lead-up to the Jan. 6 attack on the United States Capitol as well as attempts to rewrite the history of that day.

“President Trump was wrong,” Pence said. “I had no right to overturn the election. And his reckless words endangered my family and everyone at the Capitol that day. And I know that history will hold Donald Trump accountable.”

The former vice president was speaking at the Gridiron dinner, a white-tie event thrown by journalists in Washington, D.C. that this year featured speeches by Secretary of State Antony Blinken and New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy in addition to Pence. The annual event tends to be a lighthearted affair, with skits and parody songs performed by members of the Washington press corps.

Just as the Jan 6th narrative is falling to pieces, here comes Pence with his special brand of irrelevancy. Tin eared Judas.

Sorry Mikey... the video has leaked.

The only violence on J6 was committed by undercover FBI and antifa smashing glass trying to get people to enter the building.

In fact, it was Nancy’s capital police that brought guns and assassinated someone.

And people are starting to see J6 for what it was... a cover for the election fraud committed on Nov 3rd

Forget history, we’re holding you accountable, Mr. Pence. Don’t bother to run for any office ever again. What a horrendous disappointment.

History is often wrong. Look at Joe McCarthy. He was more right than wrong, yet history paints him as a villain. History is currently written by leftists.

Pence isn’t exactly picking up support > IMO.

I also think we need to flash back to 2016 and the states
that held caucuses, where Cruz picked up all his support.

Those caucuses are run by the RNC/GOPe folks. If a poll
in one of those states shows Trump lagging, keep that in
mind.

The leftist narrative has been unraveling for decades though.

#71: "What does “Fump” stand for?"

The "MP" part stands for Mike Pence.

I will leave it as a homework exercise to figure out the "FU".

“That depends on who writes history.”

We know who writes it.

If there is a shard of true justice left in the world, Pence will be held accountable for his treasons.

Pence is like Mitt Lite. There's just something wrong with that man.

It might be that the world, all of a sudden infected with Woke and outright Marxism, just got too complicated for his tiny brain.
