Showing Original Post only (View all)OMG! Remember when Pence said, 'I'm not getting in that car'? [View all]
https://www.rawstory.com/mike-pence-secret-service/Raskin suspects the vice president's Secret Service agents were reporting to Trump's agents, and the plan was to take Pence away from the Capitol to corrupt the certification process as part of the insurrection.
"[Pence then] uttered what I think are the six most chilling words of this entire thing I've seen so far: 'I'm not getting in that car,'" Raskin said. "He knew exactly what this inside coup they had planned for was going to do."
"It was a coup directed by the president against the vice president and against the Congress."

He would have been taken to an undisclosed location "for his safety," never to return for the count.

I that case, we will never know what Grassley would or would not have done since it never happened.

Yes, but that was the "easier" correct thing to do and one would hope he would do the right thing

Pence refused to leave the Capitol campus, and stayed until the early hours of Jan. 7th

I believe FakeNoose's is the most credible scenario for Pence himself that afternoon.

Whatever brave "stand" Pence may have made, it was undone by his subsequent actions.

I think Mother Pence was the one with the bad feeling, told him not to get into any cars.

It is certainly VERY ominous, and not hard to connect the dots...at least by solid inference.
