In reply to the discussion: Mike Pence knew before January 6th that there were states that sent in forged election documents. [View all]Progressive Jones
(6,011 posts)36. You beat me to it. GOP Hoosier politicians. Quayle may have "mentored" Pence over time.
At this point in time, and probably much earlier, Pence has got to be kicking himself in the ass over
his scratching-his-way-to-the-top ways. He's gotten himself into deep shit, and he actually may not have seen it coming. He's a dupe. He's a placeholder. I'd guess that the GOP didn't even think Trump would last too long. He was already trouble before the 2016 election. They had to have a Central Casting Republican waiting in the wings.
The GOP is entirely made up of power grubbers, including Pence, and this is no defense of him, but I think that he got taken for a ride, for the most part. Boo Hoo. He knows what kind of crooks he's in with.

My opinion of Dan Quayle BITD was that he couldn't find his ass with both hands.

All Mike Pence cares about at this point is whether, and how, to win the White House for himself.

Would a moral man have had to ask others if he get away with using the fake electors....

Yes he did know, and ultimately he did things to stop the faked electors being counted.

I'm baffled by how people are now excited about year old news that was common knowledge

It was widely reported and much discussed here at DU back in 12/20 so most everyone knew

Safe to say that this isn't 'news' per se, as it was widely reported by the MSM at the time
