Pence took inspiration from Madison, Bible on Jan. 6 © Getty Images Former Vice President Mike Pence said he took inspiration from former President James Madison when he certified the results of the Electoral College vote despite intense pressure from former President Trump and his allies to not do so.

Pence, who has come under enormous criticism for Trump for not challenging the Electoral College results, said Madison and the Bible guided his decision-making, according to a report by CNN Politics.

Speaking at an event at the University of Iowa on Monday evening, Pence, asked who had told him to buck Trump's plan, answered, "James Madison."

Pence also mentioned the Bible: "Psalm 15 says he who keeps his oath even when it hurts."

The former vice president was presiding over the Electoral College count in Congress, traditionally a ceremonial role, when Republican members of the House and Senate challenged the votes in certain states, leading to debates and votes in both chambers.

Should’ve followed Jefferson’s example when he counted the votes his way.

Or maybe Jesus’ example when he overturned the temple market tables.

No Pence. You’re done. You failed to defend religious liberties with your RFRA debacle and you failed to defend constitutional liberties while in power.

Let’s not forget YOU were in charge of Fauci, too.

You can tout your, so-called, Christian bona-fides all you want. You’re all talk and no substance.

Be gone.

I don’t know if Pence was ever a good man, but putting him in there as Trump’s #2 was the end of his career. No one cares about Pence - not Trump supporters, Republicans or Democrats, or the Hill.

I read the Bible myself, and STRONGLY disagree with Pence.

Very good assessment of the pious Pence.

I hope he’s done politically.

The rest of his political career aspirations may be the shortest in history. I sure won’t be voting for him.
He was on fox the other day taking credit for call the things POTUS Trump did....Unbelievable.

No one cares about Pence - not Trump supporters,

**************

Democrats, the Hill and some Republicans only care about him to the extent that they can use him to attack Trump and his supporters.

Me too.

If anything Pence has more in common with Robert Tilton than Jesus.

Was Pence wrong?

Did any state do an audit that clearly proved fraud that the left could not dispute/ignore?

Nope.

I know there was fraud. But, so far, it has not been proven enough to break through.

It never will be proven....just like Hillary will never be held responsible for her email, Benghazi or Obama for his BC or Hunter for selling his father’s office to enrich his father.

None of this will ever be proven....including the conspiracy to slow Trump with the Russian Collusion Lie.

So, it is easy to attack Pence. Enjoy yourselves. You are urinating into the wind.
