It's no secret that President Donald Trump has been very unhappy indeed with Vice President Mike Pence's refusal to halt the Electoral College Count. According to Business Insider, Pence is said to be disappointed and saddened by Trump's public and private attacks on him. However, sources say Pence isn't ruling out the option of invoking the 25th Amendment to remove Trump from office. Still, sources say Pence and his team are reportedly worried that Trump may descend into even more mental instability. They fear that by invoking the amendment or starting an impeachment process, Trump will be triggered into action and put the nation at risk.
Attorney Lin Wood tweeted on Friday that Vice President Mike Pence should be arrested for treason and executed by firing squad. The staunch supporter of President Donald Trump also blamed Chief Justice John Roberts and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell for the election results. According to Business Insider, Wood's remarks triggered some Republicans to issue tweets to distance themselves from him. Among them were Trump campaign lawyer Jenna Ellis, and the conservative high school student Nicholas Sandmann. In recent weeks, Wood has filed or joined lawsuits to overturn President-elect Joe Biden's election victory. Wood has also cited conspiracy theories in the past.
On Wednesday, the Vice Presidential Candidates Kamala Harris and Mike Pence debated. Who won the debate depends on which political party you belong to.

HuffPo said Harris scored points by showing Pence's disconnection with the reality of the virus. Harris was also able to make points about health care that Joe Biden was not able to. Pence, for his part, tried to get Harris to answer simple questions about the Green New Deal and stacking of the Supreme Court.
