This guy helped save us in 2020 by working to convince Pence to defy Trump and to certify the election. If you are going to save us a click at least read the article and allow us to give the guy an ounce of credit.
Too many people in this thread are shitting on this guy without having read the article.
Luttig played a [now famous role](https://www.cnn.com/2022/02/28/politics/jackson-luttig-endorsement/index.html) in persuading then-Vice President Mike Pence to defy Trump and certify the 2020 presidential election. In a series of tweets drafted at the request of Pence’s attorney, Luttig spelled out in stark terms the legal rationale for Pence to reject the former president’s attempt to overturn Joe Biden’s victory.

You might want to go back and read the article. He is not exactly spineless and you might want to consider thanking him for actually having one following the 2020 election.
