Mike Pence called 'Judas' after video shows him taking mystery coin after handshake: 'Got his 30 silver coins'

What was that coin and who was the person who shook his hands? Internet is confused and angry

A video of Mike Pence has gone viral that showed him shaking hands with a masked man right after certifying the election. The reason behind all the buzz is that in that particular video, the vice president was seen receiving a mysterious coin soon after declaring that Joe Biden had won the 2020 presidential election. Some people on the Internet claimed that Pence got his reward for betraying Donald Trump while some compared him with Judas who got 30 silver coins after handing over Jesus.

Though it’s still not clear what that coin exactly was, it's interesting to see people’s bizarre reactions to that. It all started after a user with the handle @DennisAndSpace wrote, “Mike Pence, donning a blue tie, receives the Secret Coin signifying his acceptance into the club. There is no loyalty in the political world. The mistake President Trump made was thinking people would be loyal to him, at the risk of their own careers.” In response to it, one user commented, “I never thought Pence would do anything other than what he did today. People were deluding themselves with fantasy scenarios.”

“A dog is loyal to you until it's very survival is threatened,” another user tweeted while someone pointed out, “Judas got 30 silver coins for agreeing to hand over Jesus. What did Pence get for his soulless deed? And who is that masked man handing it to him? And exactly WHAT is it?” “I feel like the Antichrist got to them when they were all taken somewhere after the chaos happened. Everyone had long speeches, like they were pre-written. Brainwashed,” another said. However, one user had some suggestions for Trump: “Mike Pence receives the Masonic salute and the silver coin, sealed treason? The world is watching because the United States can change forever. President @realDonaldTrump please trust @SidneyPowell1 and declare Martial Law. @jjauthor @Lrihendry @GenFlynn @AmyKremer @SebGorka.”

“Pence (Judas) receives a coin after giving the ol' Masonic handshake and literally rubbing elbows with Nancy Pelosi. Sick times. Betrayal is part of their game,” a user wrote while another stated, “Like a kid passing a note in class thinking the teacher doesn't see it. So very bizarre. Then, there's Nancy like a kid who can't keep herself from interrupting by constantly nudging until she takes gets his attention. All, everyone, a potential backstabber. Bye-bye Pence.” “Pence is a piece of s**t. What a low life mother. Does he really think anyone is going to trust him to work for the govt again? He just signed his government see you later dumb s**t letter,” a user added.

This comes after Pence disregarded his boss’ order to “send votes back” and stated that not he or anyone, but only lawmakers have the right to decide whether to accept or reject the EC votes. On January 6, the 61-year-old said he went against Trump’s pressure to overturn the election and respect the Constitution.
