17/ While Pence had Jacob write a three-page memo formally ditching the idea he could overturn the election, it is really important to understand that neither Pence nor Jacob ever *seriously* considered doing as Trump asked. They were just trying to stay in Trump’s good graces. — PolitiTweet.org

16/ This is so important to underscore: there was *no valid legal argument* for Pence having *anything* but a ceremonial role on January 6, and *Pence knew it* and *his legal counsel knew it* and *Trump’s lawyers privately knew it*. That whole rigamarole was for Trump’s benefit. — PolitiTweet.org

18/ We’ll hear today that Pence asked for advice from Judge Luttig and Luttig told him he couldn’t do as Trump asked—just as Jacob had told Pence. But this may obscure the simple fact that no one serious *ever* implied to Pence he could do this and Pence *never* thought he could. — PolitiTweet.org
