Trump and Pence Signal President Won't Resign or Be Removed
Source: Bloomberg News
Vice President Mike Pence signaled hell spurn demands to immediately oust Donald Trump over a deadly riot by the presidents supporters as the two met and agreed to work together for the remainder of the term, according to a senior administration official.
The discussion adds to indications that Trump has no plans to resign before Joe Bidens Jan. 20 inauguration.
It was the first time Trump and Pence have spoken since the presidents supporters stormed the Capitol while Pence was presiding over formal affirmation of his re-election defeat, according to two people familiar with the matter.
The two men, meeting in the Oval Office, agreed that people who broke into the Capitol dont represent Trumps America First movement and pledged to continue their work on behalf of the country for the remainder of their term, the official said. It was a good conversation in which Trump and Pence discussed the week ahead and reflected on the last four years of the administrations work, the official added.

(90,785 posts)Even as they claim those who stormed the Capitol don't "represent" "America First" (Where did its twin MAGA go?), by using the phrase "America First", they are telling those who stormed the Capitol that the part of them not representing Trump is a lie.
Giving a president that fomented insurrection an out will come back to bite everyone in the ass.
