caltrek's comment: Pence is at least sticking to conservative principles, mainly that we are a nation of laws. Trump has adopted the fascist tactic of promoting the Big Lie upon which he now rests his claim to power.(NBC News) Former Vice President Mike Pence on Friday rejected former President Donald Trump's claim that he could have "overturned" the results of the 2020 election, saying, "The presidency belongs to the American people and the American people alone."
While Pence had previously resisted calling out his former boss by name, he did not hold back in a speech to the Federalist Society, a conservative legal organization, in Orlando, Florida.
“I heard this week that President Trump said I had the right to overturn the election. President Trump is wrong," Pence said.
