Given that he surely knows how unpopular that opinion is amongst his base, could that be a further hint that Mike Pence is secretly a white hat?
Trump did say back when the left stole the election "sometimes it takes more courage to do the wrong thing".
Thoughts?
I think what President Trump said about Pence on January 6t, 2021 is “it takes more courage to do nothing.”
I think it probably does take a lot of courage to think doing nothing can stop what is coming.
It seemed President Trump’s comment last night about Pence was lamenting what could have been if Pence hadn’t made a mistake. And, how the system can corrupt a “good” guy. Not a hint that Pence is a white hat.
Except that Pence made no mistake on Jan 6th.
This community has been having this debate for a couple years now. President Trump is the person who said Pence made a mistake.
I’ve come to believe Pence provided the cover for the January 6th false flag when he issued that letter saying he was powerless. When he did that he provided the “motive” for the January 6th False Flag. If he didn’t publish that letter MAGA would have left DC believing he was fighting for them. And, it would have been impossible to plausibly launch the false flag.
Had he not issued the letter and still done nothing, I would probably be hanging onto hope he was a white hat. But, I can’t believe a white hat would have poured gas on a volatile situation like that. And, in doing so, provide the basis for locking up the January 6th prisoners. Has he defended them at all?
Edit: Just want to say I’m not really arguing, just giving my opinion. I actually hope you are the one who is correct.
What Pence said here, was 100% correct.
The enemy wanted him to do what "MAGA" allegedly wanted him to do, which would have actually been unconstitutional. The enemy would then say "aha got 'em! It's a coup! Pew pew pew pew."
Pence's letter was calling the enemy's bluff and forcing them into making the first move at that stage of the rebellion. His action was comparable to sending the Star of the West to resupply Ft. Sumter. And he suckered them into firing, not really doing much damage, but nonetheless revealing their hand, which was that they wanted to have a truly violent, deadly day on Jan 6th. As we all know, that didn't happen. All that was left, was for the unlawful inauguration, the actual firing on Ft. Sumter, in keeping with the historical comparison.
The letter made no impact on what he did, and was always going to do. Say he doesn't publish it? He still wasn't going to act unconstitutionally and do what "some" wanted him to do. Unless he "rejected the votes" (again, he had no constitutional power to do so), it was inevitable that the historically and constitutionally illiterate "MAGA" still would have pinned him the scapegoat like Lost Cause propagandists did to Longstreet and Ewell at Gettysburg. That's exactly what the enemy wanted. Cause division. Get MAGA angry, and project it in the wrong direction to distract them from the real problems, and like killing two birds with one stone, go apeshit crazy and fuel a real war... instead, what happened was the "WoRst DaY iN HiStorY" the "DeAdLy iNSurERECTioN." Desired effect, thwarted.
Trump and Pence, together, made them cross the Rubicon.
What does it look like when we know whether or not Mike Pence is a white hat or black hat, or maybe just got played by the DS? That’s probably the most important question.
