>That is not how shit works. If VP steps down, it takes weeks if not months to replace him. Senate President Pro Tempore Grassley automatically takes up Pence's role if Pence has homos elsewhere to slay.
Grassley Says Pence Will Skip Electoral Vote Certification
Sen. Charles Grassley (R-IA), the Senate president pro tempore, says he and not Vice President Mike Pence will preside over the certification of Electoral College votes, since “we don’t expect him to be there,” Roll Call reports.
Grassley also said he will listen to debate and that “it would be really wrong for me to say I have my mind made up.”
A Grassley spokesman later clarified to the New York Times that the senator does not “have any indication Pence won’t be present,” although that’s exactly what he said.
