It's a signal that he's had enough. The man oozes integrity. He has been a loyal VP through four very difficult years, only to be rewarded with scorn.
Thanks. If I'd had to guess, that is what I would have guessed.
But boy, that is some message, hey??? No less than Trump deserves, but not something you see every day! LOL
Only a maniac laughs on a day like today.
Always remember, Operation Valkyrie was an act of sedition.
Warning: I post things that interest me. Read and comment at your own discretion. -

But he won't have dinner with a woman without his wife present!
(can I still say "woman"?)
How he was mocked for that. This is a standard to which he held himself out of respect for his wife and their marriage. You might disagree, but it's not worthy of scorn or mockery.
He's been ethical (as far as I know) and loyal (as far as his ethics permitted).
"Now look here, you Baltic gas passer... " - Mik, 6/14/08
The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

And Jon still doesn't refer to him as the Vice-President...

So does that mean we all get to see Trump do his Inspector Dreyfus impression?

Hot off the press!
Google News: "(CNN)Vice President Mike Pence on Wednesday publicly broke with President Donald Trump, the boss he's served obsequiously for four years, saying he cannot submit to demands he overthrow the results of the election.
Pence formalized his views in a letter to lawmakers, declaring he has no "unilateral authority to decide presidential contests" and could not change the results of the election.
"It is my considered judgement that my oath to support and defend the Constitution constrains me from claiming unilateral authority to determine which electoral votes should be counted and which should not," he wrote.He ended his letter: "So Help Me God."
^^^^^^Welp, this should be an interesting partnership between now and 1/20.

He could not say that a day earlier? He had to wait until violence broke out on the Capitol and one woman died to make this declaration? Had he took that stance public earlier, maybe, just maybe, the violence would have been avoided and the woman did not have to die.

This is just conjecture - but Trump has been pretty silent today. Based on his public comments, he may be even more nutso in private today.
I would think it'd take a lot for Pence to be sucking it up for 4 years, but turn with 2 weeks left.

Given David Frum's observation about Trump eating the chess pieces, I'd say that today he swallowed the Queen.

You know.... sometimes I have to remind myself that humans don't follow the laws of natural selection the way the other animals on this planet do. When a chicken is defective, the other chickens peck it to death.

The statement/letter was given this morning.

I don't agree with a lot of what Mike Pence believes, but he's been an honorable VP, and a much, much better man than his boss. I've said a number of times that I've felt really sorry for him - what a shitty position to be in.
Proud supporter of Plan 2525. Everything you think, do and say will be in the pill you took today.

Back then he probably didn’t think they’d win and figured it would raise his profile for future attempts.
