In the valet’s account, laid out in a transcript obtained by The New York Times, an agitated Mr. Trump pressured Mr. Pence to overturn the election and stewed about Mr. Pence’s refusal for hours after violence engulfed Congress. Told that a civilian had been shot outside the House chamber amid the mob attack, he recalled, Mr. Trump appeared unconcerned.
“I just remember seeing it in front of him,” the valet said of a note card Mr. Trump was given bearing news of the casualty as he watched the riot unfold on television. “I don’t remember how it got there or whatever. But there was no, like, reaction.”
Exactly.
Trump was not wrong that his career with republicans was basically ended. However, Pence was ideally setup to end Trump’s career. Had he testified in the impeachment hearing, it would have been DAMN hard for the republicans to spin that as “Oh, opsie, this was just a little crimin’”
Instead, the dipshit thought he’d be loved enough to get a presidential nomination this year (TF?!?!). He’s a moron.
I always think of Pence as Renfield to Trump’s Dracula. A worm serving a snake.
Damn now that’s the perfect description right there
Pence wishes he looked that good.
