TFG butthurt by Pence criticism

Last edited Sat Feb 5, 2022, 03:06 PM - Edit history (1)

Former President Trump responded to former Vice President Mike Pence's remarks that he did not have the authority to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election.

"Just saw Mike Pence's statement on the fact that he had no right to do anything with respect to the Electoral Vote Count, other than being an automatic conveyor belt for the Old Crow Mitch McConnell to get Biden elected President as quickly as possible," Trump said in a statement through his Save America PAC late Friday night. "Well, the Vice President's position is not an automatic conveyor if obvious signs of voter fraud or irregularities exist."

He pointed to the fact that Democrats and some Republicans, whom he dubbed "RINOs," or "Republicans In Name Only," are trying to change the Electoral Count Act as evidence that the election was stolen.

Some Republicans and Democrats had last month expressed an openness to overhauling the 1887 election law, with several changes under consideration, including increasing the number of lawmakers who must object before Congress can take up a vote on challenging a state's Electoral College slate.

'I Was Right And Everybody Knows It': Trump Responds To Pence With Tiresome Fraud Lies



Donald Trump ripped Mike Pence on Friday night as an “automatic conveyor belt for Old Crow” GOP Sen. Mitch McConnell after his former vice president called it “un-American” to expect him to single-handedly overturn a presidential election.

Trump yet again baselessly insisted that Pence had the power to refuse to certify electoral votes because of election “fraud” — which the former president has yet to present a shred of evidence to support.

“Just saw Mike Pence’s statement on the fact that he had no right to do anything with respect to the Electoral Vote Count, other than being an automatic conveyor belt for the Old Crow Mitch McConnell to get Biden elected President as quickly as possible,” Trump wrote on his blog, which was immediately posted by aide Liz Harrington on her Twitter account.

“Well, the Vice President’s position is not an automatic conveyor if obvious signs of irregularities or fraud exist,” he added.

What the hell does that even mean? There is a process and an official Constitutional schedule. These specific things happen on these specific days.

He thinks his Obfuscate and Delay tactics that have worked for his whole "working" "professional" life were going to work with the US Presidential election??

Stupid, stupid man.

whether by 1/6 there were any credible fraud allegations?

By then Barr had said nah. Had Elias won any of his 60 suits yet?

It has been proven that 98.7 percent of Trump is butt, it is estimated that other 1.3 percent is flatulence.
