Former Vice President Mike Pence says he knows he did "the right thing" on Jan. 6 in certifying the 2020 election and ignoring the requests from then-President Donald Trump to overturn the Electoral College results."I know in my heart of hearts that on that day, we did our duty, under the Constitution," Pence said in an interview with the Christian Broadcasting Network that was released a few days ago. "I don't know if President Trump and I will ever see eye to eye on that day. Or that many of our most ardent supporters will agree with my decision that day. But I know I did the right thing."

FTA: “ Pence has been in a precarious position among many in the GOP base since the storming of the Capitol by right wing extremists aiming to disrupt congressional certification of now President Biden’s election victory over Trump.”
What is the evidence supporting that conclusion? Who precisely had a plan to “disrupt congressional certification “? What could possibly have been accomplished by such disruption - would a disruption have prevented the ultimate certification or only delayed it?
The only beneficiary of the event that i can postulate would be the dims and they certainly exploited it.

Mike, you don't have a conundrum. Trump followers will never vote for you. You betrayed him. You betrayed us. We no longer trust you. So save yourself and your GOP buddies a fortune and go home and plant a garden or something. All things being equal, you'd never win if we have a say in it.

Pence was a great vice president -- as long as he didn't actually have to do anything.
When he was called upon to actually do his Constitutionally mandated job, he failed miserably, and proved that he was just another play-nice Republi-Can't swamp creature.
He could have gone down in history as the greatest vice president in history -- the man who saved our republic!!! But he failed. And we are all paying the price for his failure day after day. In fact, our great grandchildren will still be paying (literally) for this current evil because of the debt not-my-president Lyin' Joe biden is saddling this country with due to his horrible economic policy. And it is all because Pence let biden steal the election!!!
So shut up and go away, Mike Pence. You had your chance to be a hero, and you blew it. All the interviews in the world can't change that.

Nice try, Pence. But wake up and smell the coffee. There was massive election fraud engineered here and abroad. Take a minute and review the evidence. You can only ignore the truth for so long. Don't waste your time or ours by running for president in 2024.

PDJT should have arrested Chi-Com butt boy Biden BEFORE Barry, Soros and the rest of the Global Marxicrats stole the election. That way, Pence wouldn't have had to betray us all on his own. As it is, he's finished among American Patriots.
More. President Trump caved too soon. Recounting the votes, no matter how long it took, would have spared us the nightmare we've experienced since.

Life is all about choices.
Pence chose the wrong side, decided to go with the Deep State election theft, and all the fake drama about the "insurrection" that NEVER HAPPENED. And is staying with that choice.
I choose to never, ever support him for anything again.

I wil never see "eye to eye" with Mike Pence in voting for him. He is close to being a RINO and his lack of courage in certifying the vote is leading our country to a disaster. We are now "led" by a senile old man backed up by a San Francisco courtesan known for her stupidity and greed. Pence's national political career is at an end.

"Third rate intellect. First rate coward." - Steve Bannon on Mike Pence. You would think that Fox would at least get the story straight and not continue to push the lie that Pence was supposed to overturn the election for Trump. All the swing states asked for was 10 days to review the certification process and address the evidence of fraud before we installed Biden based on the perjured statements from the respective state Secretaries of State.

He didn't do "the right thing", he did a very WRONG thing by certifying the election when there were so many unanswered questions out there. He was trying to save his own behind side and in the process killed his political career.

Liar! He knows exactly what he did and why. He could have done the right thing and been a guarantee for the nomination for 2028. But, he decided to expose his establishment credentials by throwing President Trump's four more years (he actually won!), but now he thinks we're so stupid that we'll give him the nomination four years sooner. He's a doggone fool! He can go on CBN all he wants and pretend he was following God or doing the right thing. He was not. If he thought he did the right thing, where is his outcry against this bogus attempted overthrow on January 6. If you manage to steal the nomination, many of US will work to see you defeated. You can't have it both ways, Mike. Shut up! and take your lying rash home.

The votes were recounted, sometimes several times. That is how election officials could say they did an audit and it proves they did their job and there was no fraud. If you receive hundreds of thousands of ballots, blank of signature and any other data and containing only a single vote - for Biden - and count them, then your counts are accurate and you have "audited" the vote and "proved" no election fraud. And you tabulate the counts from the machines and the sum is matches the previous sum, you have "audited" the machine count and the vote count was accurate.
But if the ballots were mass produced to steal an election and slipped into the counting locations and if the voting machines were programmed to occasionally add votes to a particular persons count, and if a stack of ballots are all filled out for someone's preferred candidate and run through the counting machines over and over, that is how you steal an election. Those concerns were raised supported by thousands signed affidavits carrying the penalty of jail on perjury charges for the witnesses submitting them, they were available to Pence. All he was asked to do was to delay the certification until these claims could be investigated. Not to overturn the election. He did not. So he did not do his duty. Goodbye Pence.

Dr. Peter Navarro said (during a promo of his book In Trump Time) the Trump staff tried to communicate with Pence about this issue. All communication with him was only through the VP chief of staff. Pence never returned any of his phone calls and (as far as Dr. Navarro knows) he never called Trump himself to discuss the issue. Could he have picked up the phone and called his ticket mate? Yep. Did he. Nope (according to Dr. Navarro). I read elsewhere that Pence spoke with former VP Dan Quayle. But not Mr. Trump??
He is what I call a 'warm glass of milk' politician. You know the type - those whose practiced demeanor and tone of voice combine to say "you might smell smoke, see flames and feel the heat. But, I have everything under control; drink this warm glass of milk and go back to sleep."
He is not in a "precarious position" with me or anyone else who is paying attention; that ship has already sailed. At this point, I think a Pence presidency will simply continue the pretense that our leaders care about us, love America, have everything under control and communism is the perfect new normal. Could he surprise me with boldness or redeem himself in the future? Maybe. But, I doubt it.

I hate when a lie gets set in stone.
Mr. Pence should take the time today to read poster No. 21's response to learn what truly happened on January 6 that effected both him and us. Maybe then he can stop telling the lie that anyone wanted him to anything other than delay the certification for TEN DAYS.
Stop lying Mike. Too many people know the truth.

Well, he will be remembered for a couple things. His lack of reading ability. If he could read, he would have seen all of the proof that the election was being stolen. Obviously, he didn't read or he would have put a stop to the Electors going for Biden. So, there's that! Then he wants us to believe he HAD to do what he did. Wrong! We CAN read and we know he had the ability to stop the Electors, but he didn't! So, we have Pence to thank for the horrid mess this country in now in! Thanks a lot Mike! And you want us to vote for you to be the Guy in Charge? HA! Not going to happen!!

Two things. First, it seems to me Pence protests too much, almost like he is trying to convince himself that he did the right thing.
Second, one does not do his/her Constitutional duty by certifying an election fraught with major charges of fraud until those charges get a hearing, which the deep state refused to give.
Pence is a non-starter presidential candidate

When he was governor of Indiana he signed the Freedom of Religion Bill into law to protect bakers, florists etc from being forced to provide services for same sex marriages. Then the LGBT/Left came after him and he caved and “unsigned” the bill. On January 6 he once again caved to the left. Who would ever trust him and vote for him? Maybe Mitt Romney but that’s about it.

What is a Constitution? The democrats recognize no such document and have been ignoring it for almost eleven months now. They stole the election, Dummy, and you let them.

Better for you to simply confess your two-faced fiction and align yourself with those other political miscreants. They will steal and create all the votes you'll ever need, even as none of us will ever vote for you, ever.
