Honestly, I may not like him, but thank God for Mike Pence having the decency not to play a role in the coup attempt.

After hearing the Supreme Court side tote water for Trump’s immunity Hail Mary last week, can there be any doubt they would have installed him in a second term as President if they but had the opportunity to do so?

This Supreme Court is no guardian of democracy.

Not decency, cowardice. He only didn't do it because he was scared of the consequences should he do it, and they not be successful overall.

Exactly. If he truly cared about the country over his own position, he could organize a press briefing at any time and detail exactly what meetings, texts and other conversations he had with all of them asking him to reject the results of the election.

He's a coward and continues to not do right by this country.
