Former Vice President Mike Pence has confirmed that he took notes on his conversations with former President Trump leading up to the Jan. 6 riot, as Trump repeatedly pressured him to reject the results of the 2020 election during the certification in Congress.
And then he failed to assure that all of these things would remain safe going forward. This is still going on, and had Pence not refused to be cooperative before, the path forward would be much more clear today than it is.
Only time will tell whether Pence did just barely enough to avert collapse, or only enough to delay collapse. Neville Chamberlain was trying to keep Britain out of war, and he did, for a time. Until he didn’t, and history remembers the outcome.
Neither of us have security clearances we really dont know if he has ever refused to collaborate. Confidential informants have to keep their cover.
And seeing that they attempted to murder him, I am not sure I can say he was able to keep his cover for very long.
Well, he won’t be the guy on the next test, so I guess we have to hope the next one has some principles (or self-interest that appears as such) as well.
