Former Vice President Mike Pence has confirmed that he took notes on his conversations with former President Trump leading up to the Jan. 6 riot, as Trump repeatedly pressured him to reject the results of the 2020 election during the certification in Congress.
Useless comment. The person you replied to doesn’t say he wasn’t doing that.
The whole jist of their comment was “why didn’t he release it sooner”, which you didn’t address
What if, and bear with me here, you were pleasant? Just imagine.
Why didn’t Pence release this shit earlier? Because he thought he could get away with not doing that.
He took the notes just in case he had to squeal, but Trump is in control of the Republican Party, so squealing like a stick piggy would mean the end of his political career.
But squealing means possibly staying out of jail. Which would also end his political career, but that’s already sort of over already. Pence obviously thought he could salvage his career after the chants of “hang Mike Pence”.
So Pence has been trying to walk the tightrope of getting daddy Trump to forgive him, while also trying to not go down with Trump if and when all the crimes hit the courts.
I think it’s ok for people to want to protect themselves and are not willing to die on the sword. Maybe not in this situation, but in general. Maybe if whistleblowers had more protections.
Thanks for letting us know in the first part of your comment what would would follow.
He is agreeing with op and adding to the conversation. “Well, that and…”
That’s what a discussion board is about.
“Why so?”
“Yeah, why? Plus x”
Imagine the face you had while typing that lol
I mean, your comment is doing exactly the same thing but from the other side.
Nah, I had a light smirk as I watched someone have a freakout
I’ve read worse. They were merely highlighting that the reply had shifted from the topic of OP’s comment.
It’s hard to read the exact tone of text. Just as I assume yours may have been sent in a much cheerier style than I first assumed. After all, why would you commit the same offense you accused another of?
