According to testimony from Mark Meadows in front of the January 6th select committee, when the capital rioters entered the building that day and were chanting, hang Mike Pence. Donald Trump said to Mark Meadows, according to Mark Meadows, maybe Mike Pence should be hanged. Maybe Mike Pence should be hanged again. That is what Mark Meadows told the January 6th committee that Trump said to him when he heard that people were chanting, hang Mike Pence. Trump, didn't say, oh my God, that's terrible. He didn't say, oh my goodness. I hope Mike Pence is safe. In fact, according to Meadows, he was unhappy about the fact that Mike Pence had been taken to a safe and secure location.

So not only was Trump, like maybe he should be killed, but then when he found out he was safe, he was angry in my mind. My opinion here, not stating this as a fact, I am stating this to you as my own opinion. I think Donald Trump wanted Mike Pence to die that day. I legitimately firmly in my heart of hearts, believe that Donald Trump, the president of the United States at the time wanted his vice president, Mike Pence to be murdered. And based on this testimony, of course, from mark Meadow's Trump's chief of staff, it's kind of hard to come to any other conclusion, right? I mean, Donald Trump was off at Pence because Pence wouldn't go along with any of their plans to overthrow the results of the election, right? Probably the only good thing Mike Pence has ever done in his life, but that Trump off him off to the point where again, in my opinion, he wanted him dead dead.

Now I know if one of us were to say out loud that we wished that upon a sitting president or sitting vice president, um, you would be arrested. That's illegal. You cannot say that. So even though he's a president in the United States, it's been firmly established that he is not in fact above the law. So now that we know this, if Mike Pence or excuse me, if Mark Meadows has any evidence of this, could we not prosecute him? I think honestly, that's a long shot that would never happen. I don't even know if it actually could happen, but I'm just throwing it out there as a possibility because Donald Trump is a sixth son of a that didn't care. If the man he chose the man whose presence on that ticket is what basically caused evangelicals to flock to him, allowed him to win in 2016 didn't care if he lived or died. In fact,

Like I said, I think it's pretty obvious that Trump had a preference on which one of those things happened and he didn't want him to live. This is just one of many things, one of many, uh, bombshells, by the way that we're going to be getting in the coming weeks and the committee, by the way, already told their members and their staffers, like y'all be prepared because we're gonna start releasing some bombshells ahead of the, uh, televised prime time hearings that we're gonna be showing, which by the way, I gotta point this out. At the end of last year, I was talking about how the committee had said, we're gonna do more public hear, uh, televised hearings in the coming year in 2022. And I said, that's not good enough. I want it on prime time. I want it to be, must see TV to borrow that old NBC catchphrase.

And wouldn't, you know, it, here we are and they have made the decision. We're gonna put it in prime time. I can't say I'm taking credit for it, but I am just saying, I didn't hear anybody else saying that. And now the committee is doing it. So, you know, draw your own conclusions there, but either way on a more serious note, we are going to get more bombshells. Again, the committee has told their staffers y'all be prepared because things are gonna start coming out because we're gonna start letting things come out. They're trying to basically build the hype around these hearings. So people tune in and understand what actually took place and what better way to start than by letting the public know that the sitting president seemed to be kind of at least hoping that his vice president would be killed that day.
