I'll give Pence a little credit for at least trying to prepare, which is more than His Lardship is doing. Kamala will eat Pence's lunch, though.

The guy has a really stupid face that looks like a characterization of Scott Walker's face.

It was a one-off cartoon that would play on Saturday mornings. Anyone else remember it?

With any luck, Kamala’s very presence, just being a woman, will throw Pence off his game. 🤞

Actually, considering now much they stereotype, I'm surprised they don't use Diamond and Silk.

Except for the part of Harris being 10x smarter & can think on her feet 100 times faster.
It's the perfect practice session for Mikey!
