So a convicted felon can lose their right to vote, but they can still be President. Gottit.
If the crimes didn't include insurrection I'd agree with him. It seems we've carved out a specific exemption for that.
In other words: I like the two-tier justice system and see no reason why a traitor shouldnt be president. God what a spineless sycophant.
spineless
So this is why he is not afraid of "Hang Mike Pence!" chants.
Let's put everything up to a direct popular vote. Just direct democracy. Why does Congress get to overrule the "will of the American people" when it makes laws?
The equation in my mind is, is this guy just trying to show that he’s a Republican team player, or does he actually think that some of Trump’s cult might vote for him if Trump isn’t on the ballot? Or maybe he’s holding on to a hope that if his former boss can stay out of jail long enough to get the nomination, that he might get his old job back?
All bad choices.
Okay, then YOU should be disqualified alongside him, you Vanilla Tic-Tac.
Aren’t elected officials supposed to represent the people? Why don’t they just do their jobs?
How does Mike Pence have any donors? I mean literally who would give him money? He's not even trying to win. Clearly he's not you don't try to win and then do this for your biggest opponent. I mean most of them aren't trying to win. This entire Republican primary is basically just a fundraising endeavor to furnish their own private lavish lifestyles.
Pence is being blamed for Trump not being successful in his coup, and his numbers show it. What else does Pence have? Roe V Wade? Voters are furious about that, too. Republicans are trying to save their asses on this overreach, too. Pence is on the wrong side of everything. Maybe it's a sign.
I mean, if it was a convicted-for-shoplifting situation, and the person had completed the sentence, that would be one thing. But this? Even seeing it from halfway across the world, what happened was shocking.
Unpopular opinion: I agree with Pence. If Trump can win the presidency, after everything, then this stupid country deserves everything he can dish out. The "American experiment" was a failure.
I say this knowing that in MAGA land, people like me will be swinging from lampposts. But at least I'll be spared Empress Ivanka leading us in the climate wars.
Unpopular opinion: while I share your morbid curiosity, you are including children who have no say in the matter and people like us who can see past his bullshit.
The fact that Pence can turn around and start sucking off of Trump again, even after Trump literally tried to have him lynched for doing his job, shows how spineless the Republicans really are
Bro they want to murder you!
He didn't accept it last time the American people rejected him.
If the people want to elect a convicted criminal, disqualifying him isnt going to solve the real problem you have
Pandering much?
Not related to the headline/article, I'd just like to comment on funniness the picture, from left to right: confused disbelief, dismissive disbelief, indignant disbelief. Much furrowing of brows, such concern.
This is a level of over-the-top milquetoast fence-sitting that only Mike Pence can achieve...
The Republicans are a fucking caricature of themselves, I swear.
