Of course he said that because if Trump is disqualified because of J6, then so would also half the GOP’s varsity team from Congress. I think if all of Trump’s in-government co-conspirators (just to name a few, but not an exhaustive list: Meadows, Scott, Hawley, Boebert, Gaetz, Greene, etc.) were expelled and never allowed to return to government, I’m pretty sure at least half those seats would go to middle of the road Democrats (I mean at least Boebert’s seat, minimum) and the GOP would lose their razor thin margin in the Senate.
I think this is one of the many major reasons Pence keeps towing this line for Trump.
