Vice President Mike Pence has called his soon-to-be successor Kamala Harris to offer his congratulations, according to two people familiar with the conversation.

It’s the first known contact between the elected members of the outgoing and incoming administrations. President Donald Trump has not reached out to President-elect Joe Biden and has repeatedly questioned the legitimacy of Biden’s win.

But Pence has become an unexpected defender of Biden’s. The vice president resisted pressure from Trump to object to the Democrat’s election win while presiding over Congress’ certification of the Electoral Vote count last week.

Pence will also attend Biden’s Jan. 20 inauguration, which Trump is refusing to attend.

“ Has she resigned her senate seat yet?”

Yes. Please look at all sides of this story or ignore it and pray.

Pence? Isn’t he the guy that lost running for
dog catcher in Podunk Junction?

[Responsibility2nd]

Will someone let me know if Pence needs bus fare back to Indiana ... I’d be more than happy to kick in a few bucks.

 

I'd be more than happy to kick... something.

[duckman]

Sometimes you just feel like puking.

[libh8er]

Now that he’s handed them the election, it’s time to congratulate them.

[tennmountainman]

Don’t think Pence gets it.

[Responsibility2nd]

We know that the DemonCrats will come after Trump.

Wouldn’t it be delicious irony if they targeted Pence also? After all, Pence was the Number Two Man in the administration. So if the leftists decided to criminally pursue Pence also?

I wouldn’t lose any sleep over it. I might even throw a few bucks toward the prosecution.

They just can’t keep their mouths shut

Such pussies no wonder we left them

[cgbg]

Pence should call himself and congratulate himself.....

[DiogenesLamp]

He’s a Vichy bitch.

Isn’t he a good little loser.

According to senate.gov, she is still a California senator.

The rest of your comment is a non sequitur.

[The MAGA-Deplorian]

Yep. Easier to hang her with the rest of the traitors!

-- Antifa rioter in the Capitol, but it could have been said by Pence to Kamala

[DoodleDawg]

Has she resigned her senate seat yet?

She's got till noon on the 20th.

[Tommy Revolts]

I personally feel so much better having an anchor baby as our (fraudulent) Vice President.

[Ponce de Leon County]

You seem to have difficulty making up your own mind.

I’m sure he will land a comfy six plus figure board job, book deal and will wind up ok... Meanwhile us regular folk will have to shutdown our businesses because he let Covid destroy our economy.
