Quayle finally did something good

Yeah, yeah: we've all made jokes about Dan Quayle's inability to spell potato (and other innocuous gaffes) but this year he did something that might actually have saved the country.

Here's one place to read all about it: "Dan Quayle Convinced Mike Pence To Ignore Trump’s Decertification Pleas"

As MSNBC's Andrea Mitchell said, "“Wow. Dan Quayle comes to the rescue of the republic.”
