After watching his interview on #thisWeek, Pence's position can be simplified to this:
"No one is above the law, but if enough people vote for Trump, he should be above the law"
2024 #GOP candidate Doug Burgum on #ThisWeek was asked if he believed "T**** was right to try to overturn the election results?"
He dodged by says, "You're asking me a legal question..."
I remind you this man wants to be PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES. What exactly does he think his job would be??? π€¦ββοΈ
WITHOUT #RankedChoiceVoting / #InstantRunoffVoting, "#NoLabels" is simply a spoiler movement being funded & advanced by the #GOP.

Martha Raddatz on #ThisWeek asked #Zelenskyy what he thought of T****'s boast Friday that he could "end the war in 24 hours." (yeah, by handing it over to Putin.)
Diplomatically, he points out: "We were already at war with #Russia while he was president. He had more than 24 hours to end the war."
I remind everyone T****'s first impeachment was over him blackmailing Zelenskyy, asking for dirt on Biden in exchange for the weapons Congress had already agreed to send.
Pence on #ThisWeek criticized every position T**** had in defense of #Russia, disagreed that Putin is a "genius", and pledged support for #Ukraine, yet simply could not bring himself (and repeatedly dodged) to actually criticize his former boss.
He goes on to say, "Victory in #Ukraine should not be taking this long", yet was never asked what he means by that or what he'd do differently to expedite an end to the war in Ukraine. π€
Lord Almighty. π
#UncleThomas on #AffirmativeAction: calls the #Constitution "#Colorblind".
SERIOUSLY??? The Constitution that declared people like him to be "3/5ths of a man" and refused to outlaw #slavery was "colorblind"? Is he out of his knucking mind? π€¦ββοΈ #ThisWeek

@ChrisChistie on #ThisWeek says he opposes "national legislation on #Abortion" and that it "should be left up to the states", adding that "If there were a nat'l consensus", he'd "have no problem with Federal Legislation on abortion."
So much for being "#ThePartyOfLincoln". By his logic, we'd still have *Slavery*. You'll NEVER have a "nat'l consensus" on such polarizing issues. Sometimes, we NEED the Federal gov't to PUSH the public to do the right thing.

Watching the #SundayShows. Republicans are STILL pointing to "The #RussiaProbe" as an example of an "unjustified unjust prosecution".
Are they saying #DJTJ, #Kushner & #Manafort (his campaign manger whose last job was a lobbyist for #Russia and was working for free) *didn't* meet with a team of #Russians IN Trump Tower to receive stolen "dirt" on Hillary?
#CarterPage *wasn't* meeting with Russians? #Manafort *didn't* give polling data to Kalimnik?

#LindseyGraham was on #ThisWeek this morning accusing the #DoJ of a #PoliticallyMotivated prosecution of T****.
#TheOrangeMenace has been using this to BOOST his approval among his diehard supporters. And a poll says 14% will like him MORE if he's *convicted*.
If this is a "politically motivated" prosecution, then the DoJ must be full of Trump Supporters. π€¦ββοΈ

#LindseyGraham was on #ThisWeek today defending #DonaldTrump, but too bad they didn't remind him of his earlier declarations.
#donaldtrump #thisweek #lindseygraham
#LindseyGraham going on & on about Hillary "taking a hammer to her Blackberry & using BleachBit on her private server" as proof of selective prosecution and #DoJ hypocrisy, suggested what she did was worse.
No. Hillary did that only AFTER the DoJ cloned her phone/server. She did it to PROTECT that information, not obstruct justice.
Graham also repeatedly says "there's no evidence T**** gave the info to our enemies" to justify a charge of #Espionage. Actually, WE DON'T KNOW THAT. #ThisWeek
#lindseygraham #doj #espionage #thisweek
THINK ABOUT all the people who put their lives on the line... possibly even KILLED... just obtaining this #TopSecret #Classified information just to have T**** so cavalierly just take them, show them off to God-Knows-Who and store them in his bathroom? π€¬ #ThisWeek #LockHimUp

A legal advisor to T**** cited "The Presidential Records Act" as his defense. Has she ever READ the #PRA? It flat out DESTROYS his defense, not supports him: #FnS #FoxnewsSunday #MtP #MeetThePress #ThisWeek
#pra #fns #foxnewssunday #mtp #meetthepress #thisweek
The #SundayShows today will all be bringing on #Republicans to defend #TheOrangeMenace re: his #37indictments.
They ALL need to be forced to answer ONE question:
"WHY did he TAKE all those documents? You can argue 'he had the right' to, or that 'the docs had been declassified' all day long. But NO ONE has ever given a rational explanation for WHY he took them." #FnS #FoxnewsSunday #MtP #MeetThePress #ThisWeek
#sundayshows #republicans #theorangemenace #37indictments #fns #foxnewssunday #mtp #meetthepress #thisweek
T**** has repeatedly defending himself by claiming he had a *right* to the #TopSecret documents (even calling them "mine") and has claimed they were no longer #classified ("by just thinking about it.")
But one question he's never answered is WHY he had hundreds of #TopSecret docs at #MagaLoco (and #Birmingham?)
If a document is "#declassified", that means it can be seen by the public, yet he never released anything he claims to have declassified. π€ #KatiePhangShow #FnS #FtN #MtP #ThisWeek
