    Mike Pence booed, called traitor at conservative Christian conference

    For @Mik and anyone else who like to believe that Trump supporters support Trump as a matter of policy rather than as a matter of personality, this crowd who booed Pence do not appear to fit this categorization. There is no reason to believe that any one who supports Trump's policy rather than Trump the person would boo Pence or call Pence a traitor.

    Ax. I am calling bullshit on this and you drank the fake news kool aid. Someone heckled and there were some boos but overwhelming the crowd was polite and the cheers greatly exceeded the boos.

    Prove me wrong or take it back.

      Don't worry about that.

      He is real good of circling back to correct any errors. As I type this I assume he has already done it.

        Actually, I don't quite the point about requiring an ID to vote either.

        I know of no other country where you can vote without an ID. Over here, every adult must carry an ID with him or her basically whenever he or she leaves the house. It's needed for a million things. And of course you can't vote without it - how do you want to guarantee a fair election if you don't check IDs?

          We have a myth in the US that people actually believe that you can function without ID. It’s BS that has quite a following.

            I don’t understand either. How are people kept from voting multiple times if they don’t have ID? How are age restrictions or citizenship restrictions or felon restrictions enforced?

            Education is extremely important.

              I think you all understand.

              Having the ID makes it more difficult to cheat.

              Anti-ID people want to cheat.

              Nobody can name even one person who has been unable to vote because of an ID requirement.

                https://www.politico.com/news/2021/06/25/pence-trump-jan-6-496237

                'Almost no idea more un-American': Pence breaks with Trump on Jan. 6

                Former Vice President Mike Pence on Thursday offered his most forceful rejection yet of former President Donald Trump’s effort to overturn the 2020 election on Jan. 6, but declined to directly criticize Trump by name or assign him any blame for inciting the deadly Capitol attack.

                Instead, Pence — speaking at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library in Simi Valley, Calif. — insisted he was not constitutionally empowered to reverse the election results when he presided over the counting of electoral votes in Congress in January. Trump had urged him to do so in the hours before the former president’s supporters stormed the Capitol.
                …

                  Statement by Donald J. Trump:

                  Had Mitch McConnell fought for the Presidency like he should have, there would right now be Presidential Vetoes on all of the phased Legislation that he has proven to be incapable of stopping. Not to mention, he lost two Senatorial seats in Georgia, making the Republicans the Minority in the Senate. He never fought for the White House and blew it for the Country. Too bad I backed him in Kentucky, he would have been primaried and lost! Based on press reports, he convinced his buddy, Bill Barr, to get the corrupt (based on massive amounts of evidence that the Fake News refuses to mention!) election done, over with, and sealed for Biden, ASAP!

                  Trump blames Mitch McConnell and Bill Barr for his loss. What a sore loser. Sad!

                      Another instance of the state GOP turning against a Trump supporter for not supporting Trump enough:

                      This is, again, another instance about support for Trump the person, not about Trump’s policies.

                          I'd a lot rather have Trump supporters capable of disagreeing than a bunch of sheep like you who would go along with literally anything your suck ass democrat party tells you to go along with.

                              As an individual not as party chair, correct?

                              Now why was it so hard for the daily beast to get that right?

                              So to conclude, the state GOP of Oklahoma did not endorse Lankdords opponent and therefore is MISLEADING.

                              But you are safe Ax because that will never keep up with the viral spread.

                                    Ugenti-Rita, a Republican, was immediately met with a chorus of loud boos after taking the stage at a "Protect Our Elections" rally hosted by Turning Point Action in Phoenix on Saturday.”

                                          George P., son of Jeb, chose Trump over the Bush family.

                                          Trump chose Ken Paxton, a rival who “was indicted for securities fraud and is under investigation by the FBI over donor dealings.”
