Short: Trump Had ‘Snake Oil Salesmen’ Giving ‘Bad Advice’

If anyone in Pence’s office had any courage, or gave even a tiny shit about this country, they’d have spoken up beginning November 4, 2020. They are all unpatriotic cowards.

Also, if Chuck Todd weren’t excrement himself, he’d have come out of his chair at “there was not enough significant fraud”. Absolutely every instance of voter fraud about which I’ve heard, was by Republicans.

Hmm… Maybe not so bad…

As much as I hate giving Pence a life ring, it is also possible he was trying to make sure his reading of the problem was not crazy. Or he was trying to majority vote the inputs he was getting. Surely, he’s at least smart enough to grasp that whichever way he went on this, some contingent was going to excoriate him.

Other than the Trumpies, no one showed up.

Pence doesn’t want to talk to the committee! And that Virginia is why Pence had his very public “epiphany” this Friday.

I’m so tired of these constructions. There was never any evidence of fraud of any even measurable magnitude, much less one that would have come close to changing any outcomes, that was not 100% MADE UP BY THE R TEAM from whole cloth to suit their purposes. When your typical idea of “evidence of fraud” is that a vote count half done by midnight has a different leader than a count that is 9/10 done by 6 AM the next morning, there is no hope for you. You have no clue how the system even works to begin with.

OT: Wow! Russians in disarray. Putin better watch his back and I have to think Biden’s got something to do with this.

Marc Short was the director of legislative affairs in the WH from 2017-2018. The reason he didn’t continue on in that position was because of Trump’s “fine people” remark after Charlottesville. I don’t think that moving over to Pence’s office and team would be considered a step up or a lateral move.
Trump’s people tried to frame it as Marc had gotten the tax cut through the House and Senate, as if it would be a hard thing to do when Republicans held both chambers :roll_eyes:. I surmise that Marc had seen enough of how Trump runs/or was handled to run things in the WH, and Charlottesville was the last straw.

Short said he was unsure whether Trump’s ambitions to overturn the election results could be chalked up to bad advisers themselves or the former president going out of his way to seek bad advice.

Oh, please. T**** has always gone out of his way to seek bad advice so long as it is the same as what he wants to do.

Short is savvier than your average Trump Administration flunky but here he’s being too cute by half. He comes up short.

Flies live 28 days…so then we’d be voting against the Fly’s VP pick, unless it was another fly, and then we’d get Nancy.
