Pence was in a constitutional pickle. Either way he was going to cause issues.
PA SL drafted a letter asking for 10 more days, and several SL members from GA and MI had been begging for weeks to convene to discuss fraud, both blocked by their GOV’s.
He had every constitutional authority to not object to any slates, but send the 7 contested slates back and demand they agree on one slate. There’s precedent for this and Trump was well within his boundaries to ask for it. It’s important because those slates were enough to change the outcome.
And Trump specifically asked for a “peaceful and patriotic” assembly to show Pence support.
I’m sorry, but that pales in comparison to what we’ve heard Pelosi, Waters and AOC have inflamed with their rhetoric.
