This is just not true. There was ZERO plausible outcome for the electoral college votes not to be tallied and certified. If Pence would have refused, Congress would have done it without him.

Again, ZERO avenue for Pence to actually prevent the EC votes from being certified.

yep

They won't listen because it's easier to blame someone else than accept a harsh truth, but you're 100% correct

Pretty sure the whole 'zip ties' thing was debunked. That alone pretty much invalidates anything else that person says.

As for "Hang Mike Pence", it's in very poor taste, even stupidly dumb. But was it a serious threat? Nah. Just some poor dumb people caught up in the moment.

I can't believe there are still people who think that Mike Pence could have prevented the Electoral College votes from being counted.

Had he attempted to do so, he would have been removed from his presiding position by simple majority vote, and Grassley or another Senator would have presided over the counting.


This. It is amazing that so many seemingly educated people on this board think otherwise.

Pence could have recessed the proceedings for hearings and debates. He presided over the proceedings by US Law.

Nobody was asking him to block certification or decertify anything.

And then he would have been immediately replaced as presiding officer, and session would have been gaveled back in.

In other words, a meaningless and ineffectual exercise.

This is the most laughable thing in the entire article.



This guy is a fricking joke and has absolutely no shot in 2024.

So you say.

But regardless this would have been the correct path for Pence and there is precedent for a committee to be formed and examine the election fraud and postpone certification, it has happened before.

Just got a little more confident that the Pence pedo rumors are true.

This is correct; however, it is rumored he is closeted. He could get 50% of the gay vote right there. ;)

Only in 1876 where there were competing/conflicting slates of electors certified in multiple states. That was not the case in 2020.

What a drama-loving queer. It was a friggin protest, and not the only one in very recent history.

Yes, just a little protest of some good ole American folk showing their support for Trump while backing the blue.

These people either just believe that they are so much smarter than the general population that saying it was an insurrection will get people to believe it. Or, they just are so out of touch with reality that they think it was an insurrection.

It's humorous to anyone with a brain because thinking of what a true insurrection would look like and the absolute carnage that would have resulted couldn't be further than what happened.
