Mike Pence is a deceitful character who is being promoted to us by The Heritage Foundation as a concerned Republican; however, he has no fan base or swells of support, and frankly, he never did. And he certainly doesn’t now after the massive betrayal to President Donald J. Trump and his over 80 Million supporters who will never view Pence favorably, even after a recent PR column in the Daily Signal website, for Heritage, where Pence pretends to be concerned about elections.
“Double-Talk Update: VP Pence made unique, substantive & secret rule changes to prevent a debate on rival electors proposed by multiple state legislatures on Jan 6th. So well hidden, it took a congressional expert until 3AM to find & report them. Now Mr. Pence has an all-new tune..”Rasmussen reported on Friday, in response to a post by Kyle Cheney, who had been investigating Mike Pence’s actions on Jan 6th. See Cheney’s post below.
This is a common tactic for the GOP to use to try to shut people out; they use burdensome and heavy “parliamentary” rules to confuse people. The same exact thing the GOP did to try to take the nomination away from Trump at the RNC Convention in 2016, by the way, and how the party attempted to rid itself of the Trump delegates, so they could use Cruz delegates.
I have long said that people need to learn the crazy Roberts Rules of Order to deal with the deceitful political class.
Rasmussen Reports writes,” RIVAL ELECTORS SHUT OUT: VP Mike Pence references unnamed “parliamentarian’s” to prevent bring competing state legislature supported electors into consideration. It took until almost 3AM for @kyledcheneyto to find these. Kudos to him. Pence scope language changes are noted below.:

Here is the proof of the flip-flop by Pence, from Cheney, a Congressional reporter for Politico who posted a string of posts on Jan 7th:
“It’s 2:55 a.m., and I just figured out how Pence massaged the rules of the Electoral College counting session to avoid introducing the “rival” slates of Trump electors. These are the instructions VPs have given out at the start in each of the last 5. Note the difference?
LDR: The law specifies that the VP must introduce all “purported” electoral votes. This year that might’ve included the unserious/mock Trump electors. But Pence worked with the parliamentarian to interpret it so only electors backed by a state “authority” would be introduced.
Note how Pence emphasizes, before introduced each state, that not only is the slate of electors “regular” and “authentic,” but that the parliamentarian has advised him is the only one backed by a state “authority.” That is not a regular acknowledgment at these sessions.
A lot of people are interested in this process. Even had Pence introduced these electors, which it’s not entirely clear he had the authority to do, they would be legally invalid and unable to be counted by Congress. It would have accomplished nothing except making a lot of people angrier,” Cheney wrote.
SO NOTHING WAS GOING TO CHANGE?
So if it was no “biggie,” why is Pence now appearing to cover up those details? Why is he painting his actions in a different light?
Rasmussen brings up a good point that it appears from Pence’s Daily Signal column, he is misdirecting readers to believe he had to stop counting because of the events of Jan. 6th at the US Capitol, which conveniently temporarily paused the counting that many people were attempting to watch unfold?
We were never given an explanation of what happened to those slates of electors or what Pence did exactly.
Now we have a better idea, which we can see from some deceitful double wording.
See the green outline? He made a pledge and didn’t keep it. Why not?

EVERYTHING IS ABOUT PR, AND THE AMERICAN PEOPLE ARE NOT BE GIVEN A STRAIGHT ANSWER
Pence’s behavior since Jan 6th has been confusing and self-serving. His column in the Daily Signal on March 3rd is strange and awkward. He seems to be trying to damage control on his failing political career. Here he seems to be attempting to pretend to be a Republican again. But the whole March 3rd column rings hollow.
It is very odd.
Pence’s column didn’t receive much support online.
lol – had to look up what the daily signal was and was not surprised. congratulations on pUbLiShInG your first op-ed in a think tank you're a member of. pic.twitter.com/kpPmE5V69U

Pence spoke at an event this past Saturday in Orlando that was not well attended; in fact, the media didn’t address it all.
Recently at CPAC, in a straw poll, Pence received 1% support. No matter how he tries to spin in now, Pence will remain the focus of anger by the American people for his lack of transparency over one of the most defining moments in American history when he appeared to be playing a lot of dramatic games with his drinking buddies on the Hill. At the same time, Americans looked on in horror at the betrayal by our very wealthy and powerful civil servants, who completely refused to represent our concerns about the 2020 Presidential election.
If I had to guess, I would guess that Pence is slightly surprised that his betrayal of Trump has pushed him to the bottom of the garbage heap, while others clamor to get Trump’s support.
In the end, Pence may have betrayed himself the most, thinking he was going to be the King of the GOP. Instead, he finds himself all alone and writing nonsense columns that no one reads because the American people are not going to abandon Trump. No one even has to promise them a VP position in exchange for their support.
Trump’s support comes from a massive Populist movement in the United States driven by economic nationalism, and there is nothing to put that “genie back in the bottle” for the GOP.
Pence should have paid attention the last 4 years.
If Pence thinks he is just going to drop a column in the Daily Signal, the second column since 2011, and get back into the good graces of Americans, he is very wrong.
There is no way back for him.

I will never trust Mike Pence again, he wouldn’t even get my support to be a dog walker
The HELL he, he being Pence, will be coming back with President Trump & neither is that smuck forgiven. He can go jump in a lake for all we care, no wait, better yet, off a damn high cliff. Bye bye Pence you smuck!!
I believe he thought he was doing the right thing. After aal all this exposure wouldn’t be coming out if Our President came back quickly. We forgive him, and when Our President does come back, Pence will be with him.
Forgive? Maybe. Forget? Never! He will not come back if President Trump does. I think Trump knows that having Pence on the ticket would cost him the chance to be President again. Most no longer trust Pence. I know I want no part of him ever being in office again.
You are delusional. Pence is history!
Are you delirious? Trump doesn’t make the same mistake twice.
No, we do NOT forgive him and he will NOT come back with Trump. That will absolutely NEVER happen. Pence, is that you?
You are a perfect example of what is wrong with the Republican party! It’s war, and Pence is a traitor and a pedophile there is no room or reason to forgive him.
Jamais poderá haver um caminho de volta para tão ignóbil traição. Ele simplesmente tirou a reeleição do Presidente TRUMP. Esse elemento, o tal de Pence, TRAIDOR, causa nojo e asco.
Prior to this I couldn’t have imagined such a bald-faced theft of an election happening in the United States of America. The insult then being topped off with never even having his day in court, and the final insult of being stabbed in the back by his own veep.
Regrettably, its further evidence of Mr. Trump’s one glaring flaw: his inability to hire good people. He had 6 good hires in his administration, the rest were traitors.
Who are the six good hires?
Mike Pence needs to crawl into a hole and stay there. His political career is over. He has a snowball’s chance in hell of ever becoming president.
Like Jeff Sessions, Mike Pence aligned himself with the DC Crime Cartel instead of The American People. The election was rigged, and Pence and everyone else KNOWS it. Had Pence (or sessions earlier) STOOD UP for America instead of DC – he would be a National Hero right this very minute…
Pence’s new reason for not holding the hearing of the objections of State legislators doesn’t make sense, if the events of Jan 6th didn’t stop the certification of Biden why would they stop the hearing of objections, after all the state legislators who had submitted their objections were not among the rioters? If Congress could reconvene at 3am (without the supposed fear of rioters) to vote on certification, they could have held the hearings as well.
Can we please get to the bottom of who gave Pence the coin on Jan 6th and what it repeesents. I am imagining it is a Masonic coin of some sort, a welcome to the club token for doing his evil duty…
Sad, however, believe it to be true! Feel he is a good man that shys away from ‘Push comes to shove’ that’s when you learn one’s ‘true colors’! Life is not ‘a bowl of cherries’ sometimes you just gotta get tough! Now he’s gonna have to ‘go shopping’!
Kẻ thù nguy hiểm nhất chính là người bạn phản bội .
What a scumbag Pence is, and I used to like him. Sell-out Pence.
Watch videos of Tory Smith if you want to find out who Pence really is, then read the emails between Pence and Paul Ryan, they are all over the net, they had an assassination plot. Proof is in the emails. There is no chance Pence would be a running mate or candidate for any office…..
Mr. Pence with all due haste go lay on your neck, with warm regard.
People he didn’t just betray Trump. We the people did not get a fair election and he knew it. He backed the insurrection by Pelosi (what was promised here) they had great timing. Always shame(act) and blame the other guy the democrat way. We the people and our posterity will feel the betrayal of and by pence. No way back for anyone.
Hi Madeline. Thanks for reading. I agree with you.
