Yes Gaby, Pence??
Vice President Mike Pence faces perhaps his greatest political challenge on Wednesday when he oversees the joint session of Congress at which he'll be required to announce Joe Biden as president-elect, forced to choose between his long-standing loyalty to the Constitution and a president demanding he do something the law doesn't allow.
"The Vice President has the power to reject fraudulently chosen electors," Trump tweeted Tuesday, keeping up the pressure on Pence even though the vice president's role as laid out by the Constitution does not give him that power.
There are also no "fraudulently chosen electors"; each state has certified its results and sent electors to the Electoral College, which confirmed Biden's win last month.
Mr. Pence, now is the time to do your job, and leave that crazy orange.
