That kind of blows his co-conspirators defense that they were just “sending it back to the states” doesn’t it?
In any case, Pence never had the power. They’re trying to reform the Electoral Count Act because Trump pretended that he did and incited an insurrection:
The bipartisan reform of the Electoral Count Act would make it more difficult for members of Congress to object to certification. (Of course, what will probably happen is that some GOP state legislature will overturn the will of the voters and certify bogus electors but I guess we’ll cross that bridge when we come to it?)
Trump admitted what we’ve known all along. He wanted Mike Pence to overturn the election. As usual, he just said the quiet part our loud.
