Under Eastman's scheme, Pence would have declared Trump the winner with more Electoral College votes after the seven states were thrown out, at 232 votes to 222.

His intent was to overturn the results of a free election, and whoever Eastman is, he should be held accountable for that.
fair enough?
Paul, i’ve shown here a million times that i have exactly zero problem calling out republicans when they behave badly, which happens all the time.
i also don’t want trump to run again. too sleazy.
i think you’re all so used to
ignoring it when your own side misbehaves, that you assume everyone else ignores it. I dont.
