I had a poor opinion of Pence during his time as VP, simply because he seemed to be a "willow in the wind" WRTo trump and his conduct.
There is a point that being a "good soldier" is surpassed by being a "principled person". IMHO, Pence spent far too much time past that line for 4 years. However, I give him credit for stepping back across that line in Jan 6th. If I were him, I would be honored by trump labeling him as a wimp and pussy.
Pence stood tall when it most counted, something trump would not ever imagine doing, simply because the man is without principles.
Certainly, yesterday's hearing showed that many good people surrounded both Pence and trump. Thank the Lord, that Pence had the good sense to listen to the good ones and for that I honor him.
