    1. @Kevin Nolan  Lol. You’re still believing that crap trump spoon feeds you? You are trying to tell yourself that everyone already charged with felonies from destroying federal property to sedition and conspiracy were ” wannabe trumpers”? Oh Brother! You are really lost.

    2. @Mark Kowalsky inflation at a 40 year high and crime rate skyrocketing, local and state governments flipping red

    3. @mike brigs  How can it be propaganda when trump is on video ! He simple does not have the power to change votes!!!!!!! He screwed himself for saying ,he basically told the world he wanted Pense to overtake the election!
      If he knew the constitution at min. He would know Pense’s role has always been ceremonial.

    4. @mike brigs Get out of mommys basement poke you’re head up to reality.BUT i have some TICKETS for the reinstatement of you’re boy. LMAO

    5. @King Henry Inflation is a worldwide issue, far from being singularly American. why isn’t the GQP voting for #TripleB when 17 Nobel Prize winning economists has reported it will reduce
      inflation plus transportation bottlenecks, because God forbid they vote for a bill the Democrats put forth in Congress to help working Americans. GQP are nothing but a bunch of hypocritical BTards who are only interesting in getting & maintaining power. Those they want to maintain power over are Women & POC & LGBTQA. Economy almost always performs better when Dems are in charge anyway. Speaking of large increases, stock market never had a better year than last year, my mutual funds grew by 27%. New jobs gre by 6,000,000 plus, also the most of any year in 🇺🇸history. Reichwingers are peeing in their corn flakes because of the positive economic numbers in JB’s 1st year. The job maker is so good, I have recruiters calling me unsolicited for interviews & offers. Got offered a job last week after 1 zoom interview with a 10% raise. Life is good

    1. @Jim Eagle Well the only thing I have really learned and seen over the past two years is that the goal of every politician is to survive, with the exception of Liz and Adam, most will do or say anything, regardless of merit, truth or honor, to get or stay in power. And I hope history records it that way.

    1. @The Corbinator Those state legislatures are a big problem. Separately, the judiciary is an interesting phenomenon: Apparently at the federal level their goal is to grant corporations tremendous liberty and maintain that election law is settled. Decision in lower courts gets overturned, state legislation gets declared unconstitutional when challenged. Note: I wrote “when challenged” to close the loop on my original point.

    2. @Jorge of Albion I agree. Pence is spineless. He should have declared Trump president in 2020 because we all know Trump won on November 4th. Election Day (not election month)

    3. @Merle Wayne Suppose an election is suspected to be fraudulent (thousands of affidavits from election officials), tens of thousand of illegal votes (xeroxed copies), hundreds of thousands of fake mailed in votes and hundreds of thousands of adjudicated votes. Illegal dumps to drop boxes in the middle of the night (caught on cameras and triangulated by cellular phones, ballot counters pulling boxes of votes from under tables…and a ton of stuff too numerous to mention in this comment…Now if all of this is available as evidence of the fraudulent election…but the courts fail to even hear them but struck them down on procedure not based on merit. I am just making a case okay? Now suppose all of this happened and is known, should the Vice President still certify the election??

    4. Let’s pray for all our sakes it is not! Let’s pray for the sake of 10 good Senate Republicans it’s not to late to save democracy. Be so inspired; vote yes on the John Lewis Voting Rights bill. The world is watching.

  1. The thing to find “concerning”, is that a society of people trained and expert in strategizing around the demise of others through public shaming and humiliation as a tactic… seem to need this man gone, but are powerless to make it happen. For example, if I decided to run against any Republican, I guarantee you the first thing they would do is check my background and look for things they could use to cast doubt on my character, yet, for a real threat …. nothing.

    1. @Frank Garcia what shame is always the first in fascism … Frank you are ashamed of being a shamer lol hahaha “0” lol hahaha wow thank you this is so funny
      Do you know the “we are the baddies” meme?
      You are living it now
      Thank you for being a real human 😉
      Not a grifter or motivated by your job lol hahaha wow thank you for this I am going to do a YouTube video just on you 🙂

    2. @Davon Reeves remember when cnn said the trucks in Canada were Nazis lol hahaha then they weren’t lol
      Remember when the brown shirts were Jews then they weren’t?
      Remember when Jan 6 people were all trump people then they weren’t?
      Remember when the brown shirts flag was the same as Antifa …and it still is?
      Lol hahaha yup your comment will not age well lol

  2. Sad thing is what took so long for these people to speak up!! They should have done it right away! But by waiting they impowered the crazies in America

    1. And look what you received as a prize !!! A rigged election and you got Brandon!!! Good luck with that!! We all suffer because of foolish individuals who believe the lefts BS

    2. @an Delgado no the election wasn’t rigged it was almost rigged by tre45on, the Qtip lady, a bunch of fake electors. Brandon has done more in one yr than tre45on has done in 4yr! Biggest growth to the economy in decades! Inflation is high right now but once it’s under control bigger gains

    3. And by more speaking up, speaking truth to lies; peace loving human beings can revoke that power and regain stewardship of democracy and this planet. We are “our brother’s keeper.” That is our choice!

    4. @an Delgado So. You think Pence had the legal authority to reject the certification of the electors and send the vote for the POTUS to the House, right?

      Well, then, you’re completely, COMPLETELY fine if Harris rejects the certification on Jan 6, 2025 even if it means Biden remains the POTUS for 4 more years, right? That’s what you’re saying. Okay, then.

  3. The bar of decency for the GOP is so low that simply telling the truth on one VERY obvious topic seems noble. It’s pretty pathetic.

    1. Looks like Mike Pence and Chris Christie are crawling from under the trump bus…its got to be crowded under there! 😄😆😃😄

    2. your attempt to pervert the constitution is wet toast. Ivy scholars are sheep in the intellectual wasteland of student debt. pay up.

    3. Bar of decency is high for the democratic party? They support fascist policies, have openly xenophobic Congress people they support, and there is a long list of corruption from the current administration. Both parties are corrupt, I just find it laughable when someone puts their blinders on for their party. Enjoy the march to the slaughterhouse sheep! ✌

    1. Same as leaving your constiuates to freeze to death in a snow storm,and then hiding behind your daughters

    1. @Brent Egger The only person in the country Biden could beat is Trump. He is literally just as unpopular after the first year. It will be really sad if we have two horrible choices again.

    2. @adam Imagine if they had enough evidence to do that. Which they don’t. Then they would be giving them life sentences.

    3. @A A Republicans don’t care about evidence. After all, they still embrace election conspiracy with zero evidence.

    4. @A A I don’t see how in a country of 300M+ people we can’t find better candidates for president. Maybe the smartest candidates are smart enough to not run for president.

  4. “Truly, Those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities.” – Voltaire
    It seems to still be true…

  5. Aren’t they so brave, speaking against someone after supporting him for so long. I knew the guy was no good before 2016.

    1. Never less scary to face one’s demons, whether sooner or later, some bravery required. Maybe even more to pull oneself out of the deepened hole you dug yourself overtime.

    2. @ buckeye chuck Yes, a lot of us had Trump sized up from the get-go, but still, It does take courage for those like Pence and Christie, who have stood by Trump in the past, to break with him at this point. I’m glad to see that happening. I am deeply disappointed in Marco Rubio, whom I once admired, for continuing down this dead-end road with Donald Trump and idiot sycophants like Marjorie Taylor-Greene, Matt Gaetz and Madison Cawthorn. Is this really the page in history you want your name on, Mr. Rubio? You KNOW the Jan 6 Investigative Panel is not a scam!

    3. Obviously he’s seen and heard enough of trumps lies false accusation, and Pence is right it’s the people’s vote who the next president is, not his.

  6. If Donald Trump is even legally allowed to run in 2024……our justice system sucks and our democracy will be in even greater Danger!

    1. Why you say that? He wasn’t convicted he has ever legal right to run and if the American people vote for him and he wins like in 2016 then he will be the 47th president

    2. Exactly can’t believe it if he is allowed to be on the ticket to run for President. He was impeached by the House. Ridiculous, this stuff happens in other countries, but I don’t know why it will be allowed. But I guess, Only in America, phrase will be applied in this case.

    3. He will run, and he will win. The dems have failed completely this past year and exposed their extremist agendas. America does not like extremist on either side of the aisle.

  7. Christie word is about as strong as a wet tissue. He wholeheartedly supported Trump until it wasn’t beneficial for him.

    1. @Elizabeth Stanley Damn girl, you need to quit smoking Crack or make an appointment with a Psychiatrist.

    2. @Elizabeth Stanley ..#DontElectAnyLawyer ! = #DEAL? Lawyers control deep state, cover up cri-mes by lawyers, police, fe-minists. Pe-do Biden, #HyenaHarris, Hit-liary, Comey, Mueller, judas Pence, Bill Barr.. Chris Christie, Lyndsey Graham

  8. “I don’t know why it took him so long” ~Christie. This is all for political ambitions for both. All too late from Christie and Pence, who BOTH now are speaking out.

  9. If they re-elect him, Democracy is over here. He’ll never leave, and we’ll live in an Authoritarian country. Hello Canada!

    1. @Mike Bieman yeah the US also waits hours and hours for ER so not sure what you think you’re one upping here?

    1. @Adrian Duty I’m glad Pence finally spoke the truth. I’m afraid he didn’t speak out because he was being courageous, otherwise he would have spoke up a year ago, when his words needed to be heard, & could have made a difference. We can’t be naive to political manipulation.

    2. @Ecomm Star do you normally have a difficult time comprehending what you read? I said it could have impacted others. Never said anything about Pence having any influence on me whatsoever.

  10. If this issue gets clarified and more explicitly legislated just so that “the other party” can’t overturn an election, then that’s fine. No one person on either side should have that much power. It’s ridiculous that trump/gop even tried to get pence to do that in the first place.

    1. It’s been clear no legislation is needed🙄, by doing this just like trump has declared that there was a way for pence to overturn it………..by doing so gives credence to his argument! 🤨👈🏽

    2. @Dennis Smith meh. I still say go ahead and get specific on the legislation so future administrations won’t try to pull the same BS. One thing trump was good for was bug testing the constitution and challenging its normal interpretations. He screwed things up enough that we’re all taking second looks at things and paying more attention to how our democracy functions.

      Whether we’re young people new to voting or the older folk having our set-in views challenged, it’s time we sit up and start participating in our country and how it’s run. Otherwise we’re gonna lose it – and on Jan 6th we came closer to that than perhaps many of us realized.

  11. I’m so glad that Chris Christie took a break from devastating a Krispy Kreme store to state the obvious about Trump.

  12. Instead of “former” governors or politicians calling out Trump, how ’bout current GOP members growing a pair of balls!

  13. By announcing his criminal activity on a daily basis, he’s attempting to normalize and downplay his seditious behavior.

    1. @Tessmage Tessera remeber when you thought 81 million people voted for Biden. Then it turned out the audits kept showing that to be a lie.

    2. @dancingkitty11 Remember when Trump got kicked out of the White House? Remember how you were powerless to do anything about it? You still are. We’re laughing at you every single day, little one.
