Pence - Is he actually OK?

[KentuckyWoman]

Any photos of him animated after the meeting? I'm having great fun at his expense along with the rest of the modern world, but seriously - is he OK?

[spooky3]

1. I agree with one of the talking heads who said

there was NO advantage to him of jumping into the fray today. Just sitting there silently may have looked weird, but probably was the smartest thing for him to do given what was transpiring.

[Blue_true]

17. Yeah, Nancy was trashing his boss like a 3 week old sandwich.

Why should he jump in and get an ass whipping too?

[Yavin4]

2. He was traumatized by being in a room with a woman without his wife.

Nancy scares him as do all women.

[malaise]

27. You win the thread

[Proud Liberal Dem]

41. +1

You mean, "mother"?

[Ilsa]

42. You understand him too well,

and I bet it makes you uncomfortable, as it does me.

[struggle4progress]

3. I don't think he's ever been completely right in the head; and he agreed to be The Don's VP

[KPN]

4. No. His soul is moribund, decaying. He is a walking

dead man.

[Lars39]

5. He zoned out...the stress is getting to him.

Some depressed people do that.

[dewsgirl]

29. This is very true.

[PCIntern]

6. Fair question

but who gives a shit? Really?

[KentuckyWoman]

7. Honestly?

Morbid curiosity on my part.

[MontanaMama]

9. I give totally a shit.

I wonder if he doesn’t already know he’s a target. Stress does weird things to people. Is he paralyzed with fear? Was he sleepy? Is he wearing a wire? Something was up with him. Inquiring minds want to know!

[Hassler]

8. He was proccupied with what Flynn said and recorded.

[itsrobert]

14. that's my guess too

Every time Trump talked about the wall, Pence was thinking about cell walls.

[Leith]

10. He Was Replaced

by a pod person.

[SammyWinstonJack]

21. How is that any different?

[VOX]

31. HAH! Not unlike the quip attributed to Dorothy Parker on Calvin Coolidge's death...

“A friend remembered sitting next to her at the theater when the news was announced of the death of the stolid Calvin Coolidge. “How can they tell?” whispered Mrs. Parker.”

[Leith]

40. Well, I didn't say when

We might have been looking at a replicant for years now. His mommy-wife might have have a remote control, kinda like the Star Trek episode Spock's Brain.

[Brainstormy]

33. Or somebody forgot

to put his batteries in today.

[guillaumeb]

11. There was a woman in the room.

And his wife was not there to protect him.

[JDC]

12. Nothing ok about Pence.

[lunasun]

13. I reckon he's got a lot on his mind right now . He could be sedating .

[Marie Marie]

15. He is just going to his happy place.

[Hermit-The-Prog]

18. that's scary

[Generic Brad]

16. He's animatronic

[dewsgirl]

32. I keep thinking of the Hall of Presidents at Disney, when I see this clip.

[Wash. state Desk Jet]

19. What that comes down to is Trump asked or ordered Pence to sit in.

And that means sit in silence. There is no way to fallow up on a Trump dialog, nobody adds into what Trump has to say because even he doesn't know what he's saying until he has said it. And Pence knows the last thing he wants to do is interrupt Trump in the middle what ever he is putting down in his words .


You have seen how Trump deals with those that try to get into Trump's spot light. Chris Christie is/was one who just couldn't seem to get enough of Trump's abuse. And Pence ,he can't risk verbal abuse by Trump in public domain, or even in privet setting,say if the media were not there.

[Eyeball_Kid]

28. Later last night, Trumpy blamed Pence

for getting womped by Pelosi and Schumer.

[Wash. state Desk Jet]

44. That's just why Trump had him sit in.

Trump cannot be made out to look like a fool ,so he has his own fool to fool around with. You might just know in Trumpy world that is what Pence is therefore ! No doubt Trump will have a dinner with a few invited guests one none other than Chris Christie. And Trump will have Pence And Christie sitting facing one another. Trump will insist they both have the meat loaf ! And he will wear that insidious smile he puts on . Yes if Trump convinced himself Pence did him wrong, than Pence will be taunted good by Trump because Trump will be compelled to strike back.

[diva77]

20. He reminded me of Dustin Hoffman in Rainman

[Totally Tunsie]

22. "Weekend at Bernie's"

They're trying to keep him upright long enough that Nancy can't take over the presidency.

[wishstar]

23. He was playing possum trying stay out of the skunk tinkle contest

not realizing that his robotic mannequin strategy would draw attention by contrast to the animation of the others in the room

[TheBlackAdder]

24. Jesus was talking to him or he was receiving his latest Russian bot update.

[Mc Mike]

25. That's what the fabled 'christian testosterone' looks like,

in action.

[New Hampshire Man]

26. Pence

Walking termite buffet.

[dchill]

30. He's petrified. Literally.

[democratisphere]

34. Pence realizes the resistance is coming to take him and the rest

of the drumpf administration away and he is shell shocked at the thought! Pence's adoring stares at drumpf won't work anymore; it is now every man and woman for themselves and "flipping" is the only true way to heaven!

[dalton99a]

35. Reptilians tend to do that

[WeekiWater]

36. Has to be one of the worst positions a politician can be put in.

He deserves it.

If he says something it's his fault that it didn't go well. If he doesn't say anything it's his fault that it didn't go well.

Trump is the show. Pence did exactly as he should have except for being there in the first place. The only reason he was there was for blame when it went bad.

[JuJuYoshida]

37. pretty much

[Paladin]

38. Who gives a shit? (nt)

[spanone]

39. he calls himself an evangelical catholic....no, he's not alright.

[Chiyo-chichi]

43. Yesterday was quite a contrast from his attempt at "swagger" about 6 weeks ago...
