President trump is wrong. i had no right to overturn the election. the presidency belongs to the american people and the american people alone. just a reminder this never has been in doubt until the former administration or until 147 republican lawmakers either to please the president pandered to their constituents or cast votes on the 6tho overturn results in contested states. mike pence being able to overturn the election is not something the former president dreamed up a year ago. he said so just this week. given the climate what mike pence said today constitutes a brave stand, as does this at the rare few within the party actually willing to speak the truth about the election on camera. joe biden won the election. i don t know what more i can say. joe biden won the election. the role of the vice president in that is ceremonial.
