Yeah Mike, I heard they have Ivanka on video describing what the asshole was doing while the riot was going on. I'm sure they'll present some compelling stuff.
"what he was doing" has apparently been scoured from YouTube. I would have downloaded it had I known it would be erased and become such a "mystery". Ivanka was standing right next to him under what looked like a party tent in front of a series of TV's featuring the mahem as other WH officials mingled around, including Crackhead Kelly, Meadows, and his two sons, etc.
Good thing Mike Pence was such a religious zealot. (Most dudes in POS circle during that time would have caved-in when the final threat was: "Mike, Do You Want To Be Remembered As a Patriot, Or A Pussy?..") I don't care if he had to ask his wife first, his personal savior first, or his lawyer first, he stood strong against a US-based Coup!
I still find it shocking to hear myself tell people that VP Mike Pence saved whats left of our Democracy experiment.
> Mike Pence saved whats left of our Democracy experiment.
No, he didn't. Pence played along as Trump's lapdog for four years, and bailed when he was finally asked to do something. Don't elevate this schmuck. He's part of the problem.
It struck me that these prime time hearings are really a court of public opinion. Congress won't do shit to ensure that Trump and his minions can never hold office again, so we can only hope that the voters do what our elected officials won't.
My take is that they're missing the mark. Every 90 seconds they should be saying, "Trump and other elected officials knowingly tried to overthrow the Constitution and can't hold office." They need to say it often and loud, because that will stick in our brains. It's exactly what Trump did, over and over, and it works. Say it loud, say it clearly, and say it often.
The best thing that could happen to this country, at this point, would be for Trump to have a heart attack and go the fuck away. Once it's all over, the same holds true for Liz Cheney.
And how about the political capital Pence is getting from all this? They're portraying his sorry ass as a saint and savior.

I'm surprised they don't realize none of this shifts the needle if it did they would have been able to impeach him the first 2 times. What do they think all of a sudden people are going to give a shit about Trump's behavior

Only thing I might suggest is "different audiences.' One group voting were politicians afraid for their future. This show is for the middle 20% of American voters and to rile the dems as well.

I agree, but he did make the decision to stay at the capital. That was pivotal in thwarting the attempted coup.

Charles Grassley was ready to step in as president pro tempore and refuse to certify the vote.
This didn't happen because Pence refused to leave.
