Let’s just say he won’t be happy about this.
Oh my, what a lovely gathering of lying hypocrites:
Some House Republicans praised former Vice President Mike Pence for certifying the 2020 election on Jan. 6, 2021, and encouraged him to run for president in 2024 in a closed-door gathering Wednesday.
During a meeting of the Republican Study Committee, the largest caucus of conservatives in Congress, Rep. Chip Roy, R-Texas, stood up and thanked Pence for his “courage and standing for the Constitution and certifying” President Joe Biden’s election win, according to Rep. French Hill, R-Ark., and two other Republicans who attended the meeting.
Roy’s comments received “sustained applause” in the room, Hill told NBC News. “I commend Vice President Pence for standing for the Constitution and doing his duty under duress,” Hill said.
“Let me just say the vice president is a real moral force. He’s a real true leader and he’s earned the respect of Republicans and other Americans all over this country,” Rep. Andy Barr, R-Ky., told reporters as he left the meeting at the Capitol Hill Club, near the Capitol complex.
Later in the meeting, Rep. Darrell Issa, R-Calif., told Pence he appreciated him engaging with lawmakers and asked if he had any plans to run for the Oval Office in 2024, according to a lawmaker in attendance who discussed the private meeting on condition of anonymity.
Leaving the meeting, Rep. Don Bacon, R-Neb., told reporters “people were encouraging him in there” to run for president.
Ouch, Donnie! That’s gotta hurt. The Republican Study Committee is a bunch of RINOs too? Wow. You just can’t trust anyone these days, can you?
Who will ask these backstabbing Trumpers about this? I can’t wait to see it.
