Mike Pence admits that he could have stayed the Senate count

By Andrea Widburg, AM THINKER

Beginning in the summer of 2020, when myriad states, legally and illegally, changed their voting rules in a way that removed all safeguards against fraud, it was clear that there might be problems in November.  Then, on election night, six major precincts — election outcome–changing precincts — stopped counting votes altogether.  When you add in all the other evidence adduced in subsequent weeks showing fraud (including Biden’s unbelievably soaring vote count long after the election ended), there was good reason to question the election.  Mike Pence has now conceded that he believes he could at least have opened the path to question election fraud.

On Sunday, former vice president Mike Pence, who is running for the Republican nomination, announced that he’s been clear that he had no right to do anything other than to certify the election.  Appearing on CNN’s State of the Union (which means he’s courting Democrats, who despise him for his stands regarding abortion and homosexuality), Pence defiantly threw Trump under the bus:

Former Vice President Mike Pence on Sunday trashed his former boss Donald Trump for allegedly attempting to overthrow the 2020 election  — and defended his actions on blocking the ex-president from doing so.

“What I want the American people to know is that President Trump was wrong then and wrong now. I had no right to overturn the election,” Pence said on CNN’s “State of the Union” while stumping in New Hampshire.

“By God’s grace, I did my duty under the constitution of the United States and I always will.”

Pence, along with Congress, certified the election of President Biden as the winner of the 2020 election — over Trump’s objections.

However, when appearing on Fox News, Pence suddenly had a different version of events.  He admitted that he could have rejected the electors on January 6, 2020, which would have turned the matter over to the House of Represents (AKA the people’s house), but did not do so because he feared “chaos” (which I take to mean he was afraid of what leftists would do, given their propensity for “mostly peaceful” riots that burn down cities and murder people):

  1. Trump attorney Christina Bobb provides insights into the electoral count on Jan 6th, 2021, that no one else has discussed.

    She says that four states (Wisconsin, Georgia, Pennsylvania, and Arizona) sent letters to Congress asking for their electoral votes to be returned so they could deliberate and make sure the right slates of electors were certified by Congress.

    Article 12 of the Constitution does not prohibit this, though some claim that the electoral count act does not allow it. Bobb correctly points out that the Constitution trumps federal law.

    Trump asked Pence to honor the requests of the state legislatures and return their electoral votes. Pence refused.
