Why hasn't anyone asked Grassley why he told the press that it would be him, and not pence

certifying the electoral votes. I have wondered if that was connected to the fraudulent elector scheme? Were they going to disappear pence, and have Grassley count the fraudulent elector votes?

1. Great question!

[JohnSJ]

2. I suspect that is one reason why Pence refused to get in the car by the Secret Service

15. Bingo! That's all anyone needs to know.

Pence knew and didn't want to go along.

7. All I know is someone came into the Senate Chamber

and whisked Grassley out of the room that day. Does anyone remember that and does anyone have a video of one or two men escorting Sen. Grassley out of the room very quickly on January 6.

9. He refuses to comment on it

He's been asked at the very few public meetings he has, most are carefully curated to ensure a friendly/worshipful audience, the rest are on weekdays, midmorning, so people who work can't get there.

He did comment at one of his town halls, to a woman who pretended to be at MAGAt. He talked about how, had Pence not been there, they would have "made a different choice".

I wish I could find the video again...but, boy, his staff keep close to him and move him along if he starts talking about that day!

10. I want him asked under oath.

[Bettie]

11. So do I

though, he's barely coherent these days...ah, who am I kidding? I've lived here 20 years and don't recall him ever being particularly coherent.

12. They have minders for him. It's like weekend at Bernie status. Why do they continue to vote for him?

Why does he continue to run? He doesn’t even have to campaign anymore.

[Bettie]

13. Because he wants to gift the seat

to his charisma free and even-more-awful grandson.

So, as I understand it, he plans to run, win and have the Governor appoint Pat when he retires.

But, he may not even remember that plan....

14. Wow. 🤦🏼‍♀️
