The fact that these people could sit there and try and bring him to task for not committing treason is insane and a harsh reminder of why we all need to vote.

I'm against pence with every fiber of my being. But I have to give credit where credit is due. He looked at this lunatic in the eyes and told her exactly how it was.

[calebg]

There's probably not much I agree with Pence on except for this. Well said, sir!

[romanf]

one person in the whole room clapped for his honest answer.

[teresalegler]

So glad the former VP patiently listened and respectfully answered as what the constitution says and what is duties were. Thank you for speaking the truth.

[yusefhasan]

These people are lost. They have no understanding of the constitution

[supernamek]

Pence had no authority to overturn the election even Former VP Dan Quayle had to talk him out of it.

ALL THOSE CHANGED RULES DID WAS TO MAKE VOTING MORE ACCESSIBLE To all REGISTERED VOTERS

I would be embarrassed, as that woman should have been, on being so completely illiterate on what should be basic Constitutional process. That said, Pence did a respectful but masterful job of correcting her - but I doubt it has any effect. She would pull the lever for Trump if he's in prison.

That’s the first time I have ever seen Mike Pence show he has a set…I don’t agree with anything he has ever said or stood for, but I congratulate him on finally saying the truth and showing that poor, ignorant, deluded woman what the reality is.

[jopolniaczek]

I don't agree with his politics at all, but Mike Pence is a very good communicator. It's no wonder that he worked in radio.

The problem with all of this is he should have gone on Fox News and said this on January 5th 2021. Had a big interview and everything. Instead, people have let Trump and right wing media, like Fox News, LIE TO THEM, constantly, for years and years.

It amazes me how many people don't know the information just explained by Mike Pence to the lady who insisted he had powers he did not possess. I learned this information in US history & Government class in high school. Bravo to Mike Pence for handling the inquiry as well as he did. I might not agree with Mike Pence on much. But on this one issue I agree 100%. We must stick to the constitution as our authority on such matters.

[josedelatorre]

insane that women can think one person can defy 81 million votes...would she be as sure about her position if she was talking about Kamla Harris? I think NOT!

[wandaholmes]

Giving her her fix 24/7. You Lost, get OVER It!!!

[ACR]

My god..Trump was handed the losing card get over it peoples!!! From NZ.

[lisafoy]

The question now is, will Trump be tried As An Adult? 😅
