WASHINGTON — Vice President Mike Pence’s chief of staff Marc Short on Wednesday accused President Trump of revoking his White House access as tensions between Pence and Trump continued to deteriorate.
The president publicly and privately lobbied Pence in recent weeks to overturn President-elect Joe Biden’s Electoral College win ahead of Wednesday’s confirmation vote in Congress, which Pence is overseeing as the president of the Senate.
“Mike Pence, I hope you get to stand up for the good of our Constitution and for the good of our country, and if you’re not, I’m going to be very disappointed in you,” Trump said at a rally outside the White House earlier Wednesday.
But Pence defied Trump and in a lengthy letter to members of Congress on Wednesday said he did not have the power to throw out the electoral votes that will make Biden the next president.

UPDATE: President Trump BANNED Pence’s Chief of Staff From the White House – Not Allowed on WH Grounds
lol. i hope that’s true. this guy is really disloyal to the President and i think will go down as a backstabber of the Republic.
Can’t see Pence going back home to Indiana. Not a problem if he wants to stay in the swamp though.
I think we are starting to understand the leaks that have been coming out of the White House. I wonder where pence stood during the origins of impeachment. I know where he stood on the Flynn frame job.
Pence destroyed himself by being a coward.
Fantastic.
Well Pontius Pence, now the President doesn’t want to see your boy back.
I’m not sure I trust the NYT.
Pardon Assange. Declassify and release everything to our advantage.
NOW
Tough shit
will we wake up to a president pence?
and just how long will that last.

There were multiple reports today of Pence meeting with Democrats.
They want to send a signal - never send another Outsider to the WH.
It doesn’t look good. Look for Pence to twist the knife for Nancy and Chuck.

yOur Boss stabs the president in the back, after the president stood by him through many minor and medium cuts from your boss over the course of 4 years and you want to complain the president finally said - enough? Trump allowed your boss much, your boss blew it. freshen up your resume, plenty of companies and politicians would love a loyal lacky like you who has such a low moral compass.
Who is he scared of?
I remember when he “backed down” to homosexual Apple CEO Tim C(r)ook while he was governor of Indiana, suddenly demanding changes to the law he signed that protected real marriage. That was five years ago.
he had his moment to shine. but, he choose his party i guess.
another black dem PA ignoring evidence. talking about thornburg?
They won’t do it in time. They slow-walk everything Trump tries to do.
If we do, doesn’t that also mean VP Pelosi?
So what’s the problem?
He should have kept pence locked out for 4 years
President Trump has not given up... I will stand behind any action that he takes.
