So, you don't give him credit for not following Trump's bidding? He could have thrown the whole election into disarray, by refusing to fulfill his role. Then, the 'alternate' slates of electors would have had to be considered, and we'd be in a muddle worse than after the election of 1866. There were plenty of Republican Congressmen, who raised legal objections to certifying the vote. Pence did not do that. Further, when his life was being threatened, by seditionists wanting to lynch him, he refused to be whisked away, from the capitol. He was afraid, if his security team removed him, they'd not bring him back. So, he gamely stayed in DC, and assisted in the peaceful transition of power. Actions speak louder than words, and his actions, a year ago, were to defend the Constitution. Also, plenty of Republicans, who spoke against the insurrection, later repudiated their words, and signed onto the Big Lie. Pence has not done that. Give credit where it is due, and Pence is due some praise.
