Everyone's (rightly) focusing on 1/6 so I'll go a different route and mention what I think was Pence's biggest moment of public humiliation and utter servility as VP:

Remember back in 2017 when Trump made Mike Pence to go to that Colts v. 49ers game then throw a racist temper tantrum and storm out when players took a knee during the national anthem? Lmao

How'd selling your soul to be Trump's VP work out for ya there Pence-y boy? Really gave your political career a boost, eh?

Also, for anyone who thinks that maybe it was a spontaneous act, it wasn't. Everyone in the Secret Service and the television network knew what was coming.

No, that's pretty on-brand for Mike Pence. I don't believe that Trump forced him to do that.
