I’ve been telling you all week that I HOPED Mike Pence would come through for President Trump and for our Country.
I hoped….but I didn’t have confidence.
I had no faith in Pence.
Sadly, this is one day I am not happy to be right.
By the way, let me say this first….the victory was never going to come via Mike Pence, but I remain steadfast that it still comes by the mighty right hand of the LORD.
We clear on that?
Now, here is the breaking news on Pence’s failure:
NOBODY SHOULD BE SURPRISED. EVERYBODY SHOULD BE UPSET. Vice President Pence statement on the electoral count. “I do not believe that the Founders of our country intended to invest the Vice President with unilateral authority to decide which electoral votes should be counted during the Joint Session of Congress.” *2 images #traitor #stopthesteal #saveamerica

As President Trump urges him to reject Electoral College votes, Vice President Pence said in a letter to Congress that he does not have the power to do so — calling his role in the joint session "largely ceremonial."https://t.co/FWK82vZGrK

. @VP Pence has issued a letter to Congress, basically saying he won't do what Trump is asking.
"I do not believe that the Founders of our country intended to invest the Vice President with unilateral authority to decide which electoral voters should be counted," he writes.

Pence letter: "Our Founders were deeply skeptical of concentrations of power and created a Republic based on separation of powers … Vesting the Vice President with unilateral authority to decide presidential contests would be entirely antithetical to that design."
