I really do think Pence should get the Presidential Medal of Freedom for his actions on January 6th. Not because I like Pence, or because I think he’s a hero for not committing treason.

It’s because I think it would be an epic move. Pence would hate it, Pence hates it every time he’s reminded that the man whose ass he licked for 4 years sent a lynch mob after him , even worse, won’t even give him a taste anymore.

But Pence would almost have to accept, then we’d get a great photo op of Biden giving Pence the award in front of a crowd of cheering Democrats.

And the Republicans would excoriate him, once again reminding the world that they’re treason weasels. I hope Biden does this in the name of “unity and bipartisanship”.
