Et tu, Brute?
Will Vice President go down in infamy alongside Brutus in the Shakespeare’s historic play about Julius Caesar? Brutus was Caesar’s best friend who joined others in usurping the government by assassinating Caesar. In a defining moment as he realizes his good friend betrayed him, Caesar says – And you, Brutus?
This could be Mike Pence’s fate.
President Trump messaged out this morning that it is up to Pence today to save the nation. His first message was this:
If Vice President @Mike_Pence comes through for us, we will win the Presidency. Many States want to decertify the mistake they made in certifying incorrect & even fraudulent numbers in a process NOT approved by their State Legislatures (which it must be). Mike can send it back!

Next the President tweeted this:
States want to correct their votes, which they now know were based on irregularities and fraud, plus corrupt process never received legislative approval. All Mike Pence has to do is send them back to the States, AND WE WIN. Do it Mike, this is a time for extreme courage!

Pence could be a Brutus or he could be a hero. Pence claims to be a Christian man.
