(15,135 posts)1. My Read on Pence these days -
Even after all of his chats with Jesus, he's so DONE with dealing with Donnie Two Scoops. I would guess that he still has aspirations for higher office (not the kind up in the sky), but he's also not so stupid as to think he can overturn the election next week.

Don't blame him, history would remember Pence, not Gohmert, as the person who tried to overthrew the popular vote of the American people.

he's gonna' have Rudy go get Pence fired so he can name Ivanka as VP and since he has a new VP he gets to start his 4 years all over again.
Trust me - this will work!!!!!!! (said the guy in the plaid suit smoking a cigar while on-line in his Mommy's basement........
