Former Vice President Pence on Tuesday delivered his strongest condemnation yet of former President Trump, after his former running mate was indicted Tuesday on four criminal charges related to his efforts to cling to power and overturn the results of the 2020 election.
“Today’s indictment serves as an important reminder: anyone who puts himself over the Constitution should never be President of the United States,” Pence wrote in a statement.
Dude has flip flopped so many times over the last 3 years, I’m not sure even he knows what he really believes. His only worthwhile accomplishment is not selling the country down the river in one admittedly important way and I’m pretty positive he wouldn’t do the same thing if put in the same scenario again.
I never thought I would say this, but thank God for Dan Quayle. Pence was looking for any excuse not to certify the election results, and Quayle told him flat out that the Vice President didn’t have that authority.
I did not know about that. Amazing who turns out to do the right thing. I guess Quayle was so long ago that if his conservative set points didn’t change he’d be a liberal now.
Trump supporters don’t like him, everyone else doesn’t like him. At least he doesn’t have a viable presidential bid.
Hopefully the religious right voters that he helped attract to Trump are still listening to him and his denouncement of Trump.
He does not care what you believe of him, as long as you vote for him. He is a politician, after all. OK, a nutty one, even for US standards.
Seriously. Pretty sure most politicians wouldn’t be so, let’s say"diplomatic", about being the target of an attempted coup.
He was not the target. He was just in the way. Democracy was the target.
