There is a material witness to Pence's experience, and I don't think we've heard yet.

Dan Quayle.

Do you suppose any enterprising reporter has asked him for an interview regarding his conversations with Mike Pence on Jan 5-ish?

Has he been asked by any investigative body to tell what he knows, or what Pence said to him?

Pretty important potential witness there!

[Mike Nelson]

1. I wonder...

... why Pence had to get Quayle's advice? Can Pence really be that dense? Anyone who has to call Quayle to determine whether or not to violate the Constitution should never have been Vice President!

[Haggard Celine]

4. They're both from Indiana.

I’m guessing that they knew each other, or at least they were acquainted. I think Quayle is kind of a holy-roller like Pence is. That seems to be the likely connection there and why Pence was discussing it with him.

8. bc being of their christian faith, he "sought the counsel of many".

Or of one-y.

[rsdsharp]

12. It makes sense that he called Quayle.

They’re both from Indiana, so I assume they know each other, they’re both Republican, they both served as Vice-President, and Quayle had presided over the counting of electoral votes for an election he had lost.

I suppose he could have called Gore, but they don’t have as much in common, and he absolutely knew what Gore would tell him — and others.

25. Answer: Quayle was the last GOP VP who had to preside over his opponent winning....

[czarjak]

2. Potato-Head Pence had to ask?

[Poiuyt]

9. At least you spelled it correctly

[Eliot Rosewater]

3. I'm sitting here chuckling at the idea of what it would be like

If Democrats had done all this, every single republican in the United states would have the top of their heads explode all over their kitchen ceilings, and if every Democrat in question wasn't in jail by now there would be coast to coast war.

The WORST accusation against ANY Democrat of note was lying about a blowjob. Imagine if Democrats did this.

[milestogo]

5. Maybe Pence was creating testimony that would

Survive if he were assassinated.

6. What?!!!??? Dan Quayle!!!????!

[sprinkleeninow]

7. Dan 'Potatoe' Quayle

[electric_blue68]

10. Heh, heh, hehhhh 😄

[Grasswire2]

11. Didn't Quayle do the country a service?

He told Mike that the VP had no power to do what Trump wanted him to do.

I think they spoke more than once.

Why is no one getting Quayle's testimony regarding this important event?

[Novara]

21. How do you know the J6 committee hasn't talked to Quayle?

They don't publicize every interviewee's name.

[kentuck]

13. Interesting idea.

They could have him on TV as a live witness during the hearings.

(Also, Republicans would not dare to call Quayle dishonest or unfair)

[Cheezoholic]

14. I think they should supoena Mr. Potatoe Head himself lol n/t

[Bev54]

15. I think the Judge that will be testifying is more important and more

credentialed than Dan Quayle is. They both told him basically the same thing but I would rather hear from the Judge.

[kentuck]

16. Michael Luttig?

Highly respected in conservative circles. The people need to understand the story about what happened to cause the January 6th insurrection?

[sprinkleeninow]

19. He most assuredly would enunciate mo' better than Dan the 🥔 Man.

This, what we been waiting for since forever [it seems], had best be a TKO. Sheesh..

[kentuck]

23. I think people's expectations may be a little high...

...for these hearings?

I hope they connect with the people. I hope they can convince them that this is about their country and their democracy, not a political exercise.

[YoshidaYui]

17. I am willing to bet the

justice department knows all about him.

[Joinfortmill]

18. YES!

[andricv]

20. Pence needs to run as independent

And screw the Republican party.

[Novara]

22. For fuck's sake no

He has a particularly toxic strain of theocratic ambition. It you want an American christian taliban, then sure.

[andricv]

24. He's not gonna win

He will only spoil it for Trump.
