BREAKING scoop: Vice President Mike Pence is self-isolating away from the White House after an aide was diagnosed with coronavirus on Friday, per several people familiar with the situation. Pence has repeatedly tested negative for Covid-19, including today, I’m told.

1. That is not very patriotic

[Nevilledog]

2. Is that what we're calling it now when no one WANTS to be around you?

24. I'm betting that he has tested positive

and I'm sticking to it

[TheCowsCameHome]

28. I'm positive that he'll be an asshole, no matter where he hides.

[GoCubsGo]

29. I'm betting that Fat Bastard is the one who tested positive.

And, that Pence is staying away to make sure that we don't wind up with "President Pelosi" should they both get sick.

[malaise]

32. I reallt really want a

twofer - is that greedy?

[GoCubsGo]

43. Nah.

"Greedy" would mean wanting a tenfer...those two, Ivanka, Jared, Uday, Qusay, Stephen Miller...

[Blue Owl]

31. I'm with ya -- Pence is one stubborn boot-licker

If he and tRump tested positive and end up paying the ultimate price, it might just save this country. I wanna see both those MF'ers on ventilators, gasping for air, as the clock runs out...

[malaise]

33. I want pics of that last part

[Blue Owl]

36. Promise to share!!!

[Iliyah]

4. Why? . ..

He might as well continue to go across the USA with no mask.

[Jarqui]

5. C'mon Mike. Get back to work. Gotta get that economy going ...

[samnsara]

[Chainfire]

[Solly Mack]

8. Trump told him to go away, I'd wager.

[Baclava]

9. Oh c'mon, go to work, don't wear a mask, it will all go away soon by itself

[BigmanPigman]

10. Make sure to drink plenty of bleach...

[SheltieLover]

[greenjar_01]

11. I suggest maskless renditions of God Bless America at top volume and energy in the Oval

Every half hour on the half hour.

It's the patriotic thing to do!

[Initech]

12. You're supposed to be out celebrating your freedoms! 'Murica!!!

[essme]

14. I don't completely despise Pence

I mean-- I disagree with all of his positions, and I think he's nutty....but, all he does is stand behind Trump and try to look stern. I don't think I have ever even heard him speak.

A two week vacation from having to be around that tangerine tweeting nutjob might just be what he needs.

snip--"In late 2014, health officials belatedly became aware of an HIV outbreak in Scott County, Indiana. With fewer than 24,000 people, this rural county rarely saw a single new case in a year, according to The New York Times. But by the time government agencies tried to stop the transmission of the virus a few months later, some 215 people had tested positive.


One man seemed responsible for needlessly letting the situation get out of control: Indiana’s then-Governor Mike Pence. In 2015, when the virus was seeming to rapidly move through networks of people who use intravenous drugs, even the reluctant local sheriff encouraged the governor to authorize a clean-needle exchange, a proven tool to reduce such an outbreak.

But, as the Times reported when he became Donald Trump’s running mate, “Mr. Pence, a steadfast conservative, was morally opposed to needle exchanges on the grounds that they supported drug abuse.” His opposition was based on an incorrect belief; while research has long shown that needle exchanges do reduce HIV and hepatitis, it has also shown that they do not encourage drug use."

snip--" The disaster in Scott County was not just a failure of clean needles or even just Indiana’s long-time “abstinence stressed” sexual education. It was a disaster born of a total abdication of Indiana’s public-health responsibility—and it’s the kind of health disaster we could see nationally. Pence is now vice president in an administration that is gutting HIV/AIDS resources and further criminalizing drug use—two paths that will increase HIV prevalence across the country. Meanwhile, the twin crises of deindustrialization and rising opioid usage mean that the conditions for localized HIV epidemics are not unique to Scott County. Indeed, Gonsalves and Crawford write that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention believes there are “220 counties across the USA at risk of outbreaks of HIV” and hepatitis C."

Asked by a reporter. You'd see into the hole where most people have souls.

The QTip VP is a bad human

[Celerity]

15. IF Pence dies from COVID-19, & the House (a majority vote is needed in both the Senate & the House)

approves Trump's new VP nominee, I am going to lose my fucking mind.

Just tossing that out there.

[Flaleftist]

25. Pull a McConnell. No VP appointment in the last year of his presidency.

[Blue_true]

39. Actually, that is a position that democrats can take, pointing to McConnell. nt

VP Pence is planning “a few quiet days” and “give a little distance” not full self-isolationafter a close aide tested positive for COVID-19 and three other member of the Coronavirus Task Force decided to self-isolate. Lance (as well as the other 3) have tested negative. @KellyO

17. Given Trump's Low Appreciation for CV-19 Tests He and Pence Sure Are Being Tested Frequently

[CatWoman]

18. bet his dumb ass will wear a mask now

[Salviati]

20. Honestly, I'd be surprised if he's pictured wearing a mask...

... He might when he's not on camera, but in their worldview, to wear a mask is to show weakness, to admit they were wrong, to lose face, and they will never do that, even if it kills them, so we might hear leaked stories about how their wearing masks in private, but I bet we never see it on camera.

[LizBeth]

19. Or he has it. Many now no longer have a chance to be tested, or self isolate. We are expected to be

out there. His ass should be in the thick of it with the rest.

Or, he has it.

[OnDoutside]

23. A heartbeat and a spine away....

[Doreen]

30. Is it wrong for me to say under my breath

I hope he has it, I hope he had it, I hope he has it?

[Blue Owl]

40. No judgement here

If nature wants to take care of Mikey and Donnie because they're too stupid to listen to science, there's not much we can do...

[demmiblue]

34. WTF: Now, according to MSNBC, he will be at the White House tomorrow.

[Blaukraut]

35. Good. I hope he has it and spreads it far and wide.

If COVID-19 is the only way to rid ourselves of this evil, so be it.

[Blue_true]

37. Why don't someone tell the orange turd that it's all a hoax.

Let anyone that wants to come to the White House and breathe in his face.

38. Liberate Mike Pence!

Mike Pence must bathe at the beach.

[applegrove]

41. Apparently Pence is going to work at the WH tomorrow. (CNN) 7:00 PM

42. Hard to suck up to the boss this way?

“There has been a shocking decline in the quantity and quality of your toadying”.
