John Eastman vs. the Eastman Memo | National Review
In extensive conversations with NR, the Trump legal adviser behind the memo advising Pence to reject Biden electors claims it doesn’t reflect his own views.

"On January 6, President Donald Trump took the stage at the “Save America Rally” near the White House; Trump insisted, as he told the crowd that one man — Vice President Mike Pence — had the power to “stop the steal. John Eastman, legal adviser to Trump made the case that Pence could and should prevent the counting of slates of certified Electoral College votes that day. Eastman spoke at the rally and said “We now know, because we caught it live last time in real time, how the machines contributed to that fraud,” Eastman said of the Georgia Senate and 2020 presidential-election results.
But Eastman now tells National Review in an interview that the first of the two strategies Giuliani highlighted on stage — having Pence reject electoral votes — was not “viable” and would have been “crazy” to pursue. What makes that admission remarkable is that Eastman was the author of the now-infamous legal memo making the case that Pence had that very power — that the vice president was the “ultimate arbiter” of deciding whether to count Electoral College votes."
So the guy who said that yea, the Vice President can overturn the election...then turned around and said basically, anyone who thinks the Vice President can over turn an election is crazy...is now back to saying, yea, the Vice President can overturn the election and it's all perfectly legal...as long as Republicans do it of course....
As I said time and time again with these folks.....accusation is confession....the main shit they accuse the other side of doing is usually the shit they themselves are actually trying to do....Don't think they are full of shit? Fine....When the 2024 election happens; and the GOP candidate wins the electoral count....are you saying you won't mind if the current VP overturns that election and declare themselves the winner?
