Yep .... no credit given for NOT robbing gas stations.
This sums it up well and full warning there are troupes used, there is bad language.
Very appropriate to Pence.
“You’re Supposed to do that” don’t get credit for doing what you’re supposed to do.
Your first paragraph is the result of your second paragraph. If Pence didn’t have a reputation as craven, people wouldn’t have seen an opportunity to push him towards sedition.I think he was under enormous pressure, the sort of pressure none of us have ever experienced so I don't know, I'm inclined to cut the guy some slack.
His behavior for the whole Trump administration was absolutely craven up until that point but credit where credit is due.
You want a cookie? You’re not supposed to rob gas stations! Low expectation mother fucker.Yep .... no credit given for NOT robbing gas stations.

Chris Rock sums it up very well.
Stop right there. A good oatmeal cookie is a good cookie. Chocolate or raisin oatmeal cookie is fine with me provided it is chewy and spiced appropriately.It better be a decent chocolate chip none of that oatmeal nonsense!
*(and the above bolded was the entire point)
Interestingly enough this is similar to Trump’s pitch to Raffensberger - since democrats won’t give you credit for doing the right thing you might as well do the wrong thing and have Republicans still like you.
Which is false.
Regardless of whatever one's party association, liberals have for the most part given credit where credit is due. While I may not agree with some of their ideas and policies, I have respect for republicans like John McCain, or former Maryland governor Larry Hogan.
I have zero respect for someone like Pence, who was conflicted about performing his appointed duties versus helping to overthrow the government. There should not have been a debate by Pence on what the correct course of actions would be. That Pence felt conflicted shows he is nearly as morally corrupt as Trump. So fuck Pence. He does not get a cookie for deciding not to be an asshat.
Actually I still consider Hogan to be scum. Speaking out against the orange monkey is good. But him writing in Reagan in 2020 isn’t solving the problem. I don’t care he’s in a blue state. Hold your nose and send a message by voting AGAINST what your party is turning into.Which is false.

Same with Cheney. Yes great she defended the constitution. She still voted orange monkey in 2020!!!!! As if she needed Jan 6 to truly change her mind.
Romney said he is doing this.Actually I still consider Hogan to be scum. Speaking out against the orange monkey is good. But him writing in Reagan in 2020 isn’t solving the problem.

Policy wise, sure he enacted a more liberal agenda for Maryland. But current he’s bashing everything Biden wants to do. He’s choosing party over country. But he’s probably afraid of giving Dems a blue wave and people open their eyes and see what a Dem supermajority can do and Repugnicans will never win ever again.I don't live in Maryland, though I travel there often in the summer. I was just looking at a broad overview of some of the policies that Hogan has set in place, or tried to set in place, and I think they were geared towards helping the population in general, and not just to enrich the rich.
That does not mean I agree with everything he's done. I just don't think he's scum of the earth, which is the overwhelming majority of the GOP these days.
How odd that trying to overthrow the government isn't part of his official duties.Appeals court rules trump doesn’t have presidential immunity from civil suits over Jan 6 riots.
Just saw it on CNN.
Still has the Supremes as his next move.How odd that trying to overthrow the government isn't part of his official duties.
Oops! District Court accidentally let's the cat out of the bag, FINALLY!More from the 1/6 committee document dump. From transcripts of Cassidy Hutchinson's testimony:
I asume there will be no accountability for Meadow's destruction of likely incriminating White House records.
No matter what it forces SCOTUS' hand. If they don't take the case, then de facto the president doesn't have immunity.Lol Smith beating him to the punch. He’s asking SCOTUS to rule if the orange monkey has presidential immunity. But I doubt they’ll take the case.
No, they will fast track considering if they will take the case. Doesn’t mean they will hear it.They took it, within hours.
Supreme Court will consider special counsel's request to rule on Trump's immunity in Jan. 6 case
Special counsel Jack Smith has asked the Supreme Court to decide the issue of presidential immunity regarding former President Trump's election interference charges.abcnews.go.com
If Trump's legal theory holds true then Biden cannot be prosecuted for having Trump killed. Or really, any other Republican who has the temerity to run for the presidency. If Congress tries to remove him from office for this he can have them killed too.If USSC gives Trump immunity that means Biden has immunity... Time for Dark Brandon to take care of this mess once and for all.
Why stop there? Open up a few seats on the SC too.If Trump's legal theory holds true then Biden cannot be prosecuted for having Trump killed. Or really, any other Republican who has the temerity to run for the presidency. If Congress tries to remove him from office for this he can have them killed too.
Even a SCOTUS as crazy as this one seems unlikely to sign on to this. Thankfully they've also seemed to have a limited appetite for Trump's other crime related shenanigans, so hopefully that holds true. The way to tell if they are actually trying to help him is if they stay the case and say they will take it up during their normal schedule, meaning massive delay to the trial.
It would be perfectly legal (tm)If USSC gives Trump immunity that means Biden has immunity... Time for Dark Brandon to take care of this mess once and for all.
