“Vice President Mike Pence told President Trump on Tuesday that he did not believe he had the power to block congressional certification of Joseph R. Biden Jr.’s victory in the presidential election despite Mr. Trump’s baseless insistence that he did, people briefed on the conversation said.”
Palace intrigue is gripping the nation as the President injects drama into everything he does. In what has always been a minor procedural move, the Vice President’s certification of the electoral votes has turned into a Trumpian 3 ring circus guaranteed to generate sky high cable news ratings. Biden’s win certain, Trump of course is determined to exit in the most dramatic fashion possible.
