Twice in his speech yesterday, Trump said "It takes more courage for Mike to do nothing." At the time, I thought he was misspeaking, but he said it twice. I think he warned Pence of the coming actions, and Pence chose to side with the traitors. We'll see in the coming days if I'm wrong.

Even before the livestream switched to the capitol, the thing he said which said stuck out the most to me was he said something like "if they don't do the right thing, well then we'll be playing by a different set of rules"
Yup caught that too and immediately knew Lin was correct.
Yes! We gotta be patient. Lin's allegations are tight and strangely not contested by the accused. People immediately giving up on trump need to fuck off. Championship teams never give up, all the way until the clock stops(jan 20th)!
Were down but not out
This is our Empire Strikes Back. Looks like we're gonna have to blow up another Death Star...
Read the statement again. It was very carefully worded. He never said it would be a transition of power. Just an "an orderly transition on January 20th." It can be interpreted either way. Mike Pompeo joked two months ago that there would be a smooth transition into a 2nd Trump Administration. You could compare Trump's statement to Pompeo's and they would not contradict each others.
Lin is like Anaconda. Right occasionally but both are shills.
Thank you for not being a doomer.
I believe it’s too little, too late at this point. You don’t play by a different set of rules at the 11th hour. We got here precisely because we play by their rules expecting they’ll come around.
That’s actually precisely when you do that, it just sucks having to sit there with your thumb up your ass waiting for it.
Bingo.
tragic accident
I’ve never waited for anything for four years. I’m glad it’s almost over. Wether we get our happening or not, I can’t wait to not have to wait any more.
have you not read Art of the Deal? Trump always allows people to redeem themselves. He always devises multiple ways for himself to come out on top.
WRONG. We played by THE rules, of the Constitution and the assumption of a free & fair election. Leftists did not play by those rules.
That's what disgusted me about every news outlet (from NewsMax to CNN) & politician yesterday. "Violence is never the answer", they said.
When the system breaks down, what options are left?
There are only two options left: bend the knee to this corruption, or violence. And only one of them is "the answer".
Violence is never the answer, they say, unless violence is used by protesters they like advocating for causes they like.
I agree, BUT if he didn't try each and every last legal/constitutional route nobody would trust him. The people have to see openly that he really tired everything. Only then he can resort to the last escalation.
Trump isn't dumb, he had a feeling Pence would be a coward not do the right thing.
Remember Trump has plenty of experience at the top of the business world to read people like this very well.
I watched Robert Barnes' livestream with Viva Frei yesterday and he said that he's known for a while that Pence didn't have Trump's back, that Pence was the one who went to Ecuador to get Assange's arrest arranged, and that he's tried a few times behind the scenes to get Trump out in the past.
He also said that he heard in his meetings yesterday that the Pentagon was not going to send the national guard in to secure that capital building, but it was TRUMP who ordered the national guard to come in, not Pence.
Yes, that is the latest.
But, we are at war, so disinfo is extreme right now.
That's what Barnes says, and he was in meetings with the Trump team yesterday. Said he directly heard someone say Trump overturned the Pentagon's call to not send in the NG.
It's bizarre that people here still fall for fake news with secret sources.
Things are going so fastthat One mind can't handle it all. We need each other to clear the fog.
This never made sense as an official narrative. The Vice President has very little power other than breaking Senate ties and certifying electors. Pence has no power to call in the National Guard. The order has to come from either DefSec or Trump.
Pence had his chance. He chose poorly.
Is this the part where he turns to dust, leaving a Nazi insignia behind?
You're right. I thought it was strange when he said it, but Trump always gives people a chance to correct themselves when he knows they're going down the wrong path.
I was trying to understand why he said it at the time because I knew it wasn't a mistake.
He also said something like “I’ve heard some bad things about him” when talking about Pence. I instantly thought about Lin Woods tweets
I got that too... I was thinking “more courage to do nothing” so just don’t show up, don’t certify? Whatever, God bless America
But remember Trump's statement from 1/5 when he said that Pence and him were on the same page? I think Pence told Trump he would do the right thing and then Trump found out right before he was going to take the stage on 1/6 that Pence was going to betray him. Pence sent his letter while Trump was on the stage.
When President Trump says to someone or a group of people that they need to show courage he is implying they lack courage to start with!
President Trump knows.
Traitor Pence looked mad as hell. And his demeanor was like he's was large and in charge. Defiant.
When he said that, it was very thought provoking.... I wasn't sure what he meant by it.
Honestly, I still don't truly know.
What was in the envelope Pences' wife was given at the Bush funeral? Maybe that comes out because Mike didn't play ball, and those consequences could be dire, even life ending.
Havent heard from the big T today. I dont like it when papa is silent.
Trump, in the Georgia "rally for losers", also said, "Just wait until you see what gets revealed in the next week or so. Just wait."
Your not alone, i picked up on this too.
I caught that too and was confused
I noticed that too and it sounded strange to me at the time. Under the context that Trump knew Pence was a snake, it makes sense now. Be bold and do the right thing or be bolder and face the consequences for betraying this country. I hope he's preparing what I'm thinking he is.
Or he was telling him to do nothing as in allow it to happen? Which is the hardest bc it makes pence look bad?
I dunno.
If nothing happens by the 20th I won't be shocked but man it would be awesomeeeee
You're wrong.
I don't doubt he knew what was likely to happen and had some sort of contingency, but whether or not it's anything that can actually happen is another story.
This is probably not a very popular point of view, but I'll lay it down here anyway.
I don't think Pence was a traitor. The VP technically can choose not to certify the votes, but that would easily paint a target on Trump being an authoritarian. Optics don't matter to most people here, but it does matter to regular folk and especially when foreign governments are involved.
So Trump had Pence not object to anything himself, and allowed the senators to commit high Treason on live TV in front of millions, with the media now being PROUD of it.
I think Trump intentionally worded that Pence would have to be "more brave" to not reject the votes, because that would lead the country down the rockier path, which is what he needs in order to cleanse the system. Every American can now see clear as day what has become of their government. Trump is a showman, and he will appear at the precise time when the clamoring is at its peak, when normal working class citizens are asking for Traitors to be hanged.
And imagine the looks on the faces of these vile people if it's Pence who starts reading off their indictments.
And now he shows himself to be an honor less gelding that would make Benedict Arnold blush.
I heard that and didn’t understand yesterday, and I still don’t get it today?
I also thought it was weird when he said that. I was freezing my ass off thinking I misheard it. Or he mis spoke. Really odd
I said Pence would soon likely be executed for treason, banned from Twitter.
i thought i caught that he said that too. i thought it odd at the time because i was under the impression that trump wanted pence to do something, aka reject the electors from the contested states. but this makes it sound like he is saying it takes courage to do nothing, which is exactly what pence did, nothing......
Either Pence is swamp, which is hard to believe given his performance over the last 4 years, or this was a very carefully calculated MAGA move. We'll find out in 2 weeks, but I'm not ready to throw Pence fully under the bus just yet.
Scary part was, didn't he say that if Pence did the wrong thing that Biden would be president?
He better not have bet all his chips on Pence. Clearly he knew Pence was dirty.
MUH 2 WEEKS!!!
