After The Groper refuses to accept his loss, what will Pence do?

It will all be about political expediency. If he goes along with the "it was a rigged election" meme, he may keep Groper's base in 2020, but he will lose every other reasonable voter. Maybe he plans to pivot in the General, if he wins their primary nomination. I am sure these discussions are going on among Pence's operatives right now.

Their two names should be spoken together at all times.

for Trump and try to reclaim what is left of the party.

They owe it to the country to chaperone the deplorables through this ugly time. Trump should not be allowed to run his stupid mouth and try to subvert the will of the people.

edit to add: If he incites violence, this time he should be arrested and charged.

I don't know exactly what his problem is, but whatever, he has no excuse for inciting violence.

"Stand down" after HRC wins, I think he should be charged as an accessory to their treasonous acts.

It is our job to ensure he doesn't get away with it. He hitched his car to the Crazy Hate Train Express and people need to be continually reminded of that fact for the rest of his career.

That was his MO during the debate, and almost no one called him on it.
