Mike Pence Backs Away From the Trump Election 'Fraud' Train Wreck
Source: The Daily Beast
...
But that changed late last month. Since Nov. 25, not a single fundraising email from the Trump campaign or its Republican National Committee fundraising account has featured Pences name in the from field. And this week, that Republican National Committee joint fundraising committee, the Trump Make America Great Again Committee, made another subtle change: a handful of its emails swapped out the official Trump-Pence campaign logo for one featuring just the presidents name.
At first blush, those may seem like minor tweaks to gimmicky portions of Team Trumps fundraising strategy. A source familiar with the process said the fundraising emails do not go to Vice President Pence's team for clearance and an RNC official said the digital team was merely testing a new logo around the end of the month deadline. Indeed, some of the joint fundraising committees emails this week have included the original campaign logo with Pences name below Trumps.
But several high-level sources say that the graphics change, along with Pences disappearance from the headers of President Donald Trumps increasingly frantic and conspiratorial pleas, are not actually coincidental. According to four people with knowledge of the matter, they reflect an effort by the vice president and his team to distance Pence from some of the presidents more outlandish claims about a conspiracy to undermine the election and illegally deny him a second term in office.
It is an open secret [in Trumpworld] that Vice President Pence absolutely does not feel the same way about the legal effort as President Trump does, said a senior administration official. The vice president doesnt want to go down with this ship
and believes much of the legal work has been unhelpful.

(43,892 posts)Pence will not destroy his career by pardoning Trump.
He'll let him fry, rather than ruin his chances.

It's too late Mikey, the Trump taint has stained you for life.
You'll never be able to divorce yourself from this, it's your legacy as Trump's partner in crime.
You put the vice in Vice-President.
Will be remembered as a real gutless wonder. When he leaves office, just like Dan Quayle will never be heard from again.

The rotting, stinking carcass of having been a key member of the Trump administration will forever be around Pence's neck.
You are done in politics, buddy. Might as well become a televangelist or something. You've already got the crazy eyes and shitty hair.

(2,169 posts)Like there is any other ship for him, or he's gonna get elected to higher office on his own? The Republicans are gonna all rally around him as their fearless leader?
Or more likely what the history books write about him. Unfortunately that seems to be up to the publishers and want Texas school system want them to impose on the rest of the Nation.
Womp, womp!
