Some people say, given the obvious deterioration of the Oval Office Squatter’s reelection campaign, that the Permanent GOP is preparing to shove Mike Pence to the front of the 2020 ticket — just in case. Let nobody forget that Pence is every bit as vile, dishonest, and dangerous to our joint American experiment as his ‘chief.’
Also, he is really, incredibly, remarkably-even-by-Indiana-Republican-standards stupid. The only difference between a Trump incumbancy and a Pence one would be less ‘entertaining’ press conferences and more overt theft by his kakistocratic handlers.
Watching Pence try to defend the campaign’s superspreader events is a masterwork in watching a person at the very limits of his intellect try to take one step beyond it.

The only difference between the word salad that Pence delivers here and what Trump says at pressers is that Pence has learned to pause and speak in a sober tone. Otherwise it veers between gibberish and outright lunacy. https://t.co/d6oIuDcsUJ

Not that it’s shocking or anything but this thread makes it clear this press event was to frame the damage, not to do anything about it continuing. https://t.co/aSVs5r9Nwf

That would be the same White House that threatened to invoke the Insurrection Act and claimed absolute power over governors, yes? https://t.co/HsjqgeDiy9
