    jack smith’s fatal error was letting cannon get the classified docs case. I’m not sure if he had good alternatives, but giving her a chance to get the case should have been a last resort. It would be a very different world right now if a normal judge got that case.

    Mike repeatedly tried to make Donald act like a human being. Not much success there either.

  3. The filing also shows one of his lawyers telling Trump that his claims were “bullshit” and that he would lose in court.

    Trump was then later heard saying “It doesn’t matter if you won or lost the election. You still have to fight like hell.”

  4. His supporters believe that Trump is doing hurricane relief by fixing power lines and wading through filthy water.

    I don’t think facts are going to move the needle with them.

    He deserves no sympathy, he made a deal with the face eating Leopards for his own advantage, not for the good of the country.

    He doesn’t get a pass because he finally did the bare minimum of his actual job when it came to the crunch.

    Unfortunately there’s no new bombshell information. The filing instead is reinforced with more information that we mostly already knew. The”bombshell” part, is how Smith describes Trump’s actions in relevance to his immunity plea.

    Call me a pessimist, but I don’t see how this goes anywhere when we have a corrupt judiciary defending Trump at every turn.

    Pence’s patriotism was very important for halting Trump’s insurrection. It could have cost him a rope around his neck, if MAGA had their way. Thankfully there are still people within the GOP with the courage to stand up against the Fanta Menace.

    he’ll be avenged when Vance judicially executes Trump for soiling himself with all those Playmates… keep praying you incontinent old freak, we know you touched a woman

  9. Accept

    More Pence Told Trump he had loss

    Pence wouldn’t go along with Trump’s Fake Electors Fraud/Crime Scheme

    So Trump cut Pence out of his Circle

    And Trump sent a Mob to hurt/kill Pence

    I wish Pence had been public. Maybe he feared for his safety, but he should’ve shouted from the rooftops what he saw happening.

  11. This is the best tl;dr I could make, [original](https://www.newsweek.com/mike-pence-trump-concede-2020-jack-smith-filing-1963051) reduced by 89%. (I’m a bot)
    *****
    > Special counsel Jack Smith's team listed multiple alleged discussions Trump and Pence had in the post-2020 election period, including an apparent "Face-saving option" from Pence that the former president should not publicly concede but "Recognize the process is over.”

    > During another private lunch four days later, Pence again tried to encourage Trump to accept the results of the election and run for office again in 2024, according to the filing.

    > The court flings allege Trump told an aide "So what?" when the former president was informed Pence was in potential danger while Trump supporters were storming the building.

    Vance still can’t say trump lost never mind trump himself admitting it. Send them both packing.

  13. PontificatinPlatypus on

    I think a lot of current Republican senators and congressmen are quietly working behind the scenes to make sure Trump loses, despite whatever they may say publicly. MAGA voters should be made aware of this.

    Pence is a coward that won’t say any of this “reported” stuff publicly. And still supports Trump and the people who tried to kill him. He gets no points from me

  15. Would love to hear from someone with a law background to chime in on how this changes anything. He was still President while this was happening and therefore anything he did by definition would be considered a “presidential act.”
