Speaking of very confused. Here’s the latest,
Pence momentarily decided against presiding in Congress Jan 6th, in part since it would be “too hurtful to my friend.”
Pence testified that he reversed course after a conversation with his son, who cited the vice president’s constitutional duty, according to ABC. The date of that conversation is not clear, but it came at some point during a trip that Pence took to Colorado, which records indicate lasted from Dec. 23 to Jan. 1.
It is the first evidence that Pence had actually leaned toward recusing himself, and that Trump had personally suggested it.
Chris Hayes provides a good review.
