By LOUIS NELSON 10/14/16 08:12 AM EDT

Asked Friday morning to respond to the powerful rebuke of Donald Trump delivered a day earlier in a speech by first lady Michelle Obama, Indiana Gov. Mike Pence said “I don’t understand the basis of her claim.”

2. Typical Republican

Poodle Pence (R) or Pinnochio Pence (R)?

We propose, you dispose.

[workinclasszero]

11. Yup holier than thou pharisee that backs a serial sex offender for President!

Trump is destroying the brand of these hypocrite false Christians bigly!

[BSdetect]

3. His two brain cells are already engaged in believing drumph's crap

[livetohike]

4. What is Trump paying him to act so clueless?

Worst Presidential team of candidates ever.

[MoonRiver]

5. Dear Rump & Co.,

PLEASE attack Michelle Obama! We all know how well that would work out for ya!
Signed,
A Concerned Democrat

[Ace Rothstein]

6. Every time I think this election can't get any crazier...

...someone in the Republican Party steps up to prove me wrong.

[Retired George]

7. Dense Pence

[vlyons]

28. excellent

+100

[Siwsan]

8. Ah, the 'it's just a flesh wound' response.

17. LOL

[Gothmog]

9. Pence is a very stupid man

[cilla4progress]

42. But he's got his

Reagan impersonation down, has he!

[dawg]

10. That's why we don't have a "Trump" problem ...

we have a "Republican" problem.

[workinclasszero]

12. Right

They can't blame this circus on Trump only. The whole party and everyone in it made Trump possible.

[Skidmore]

13. Pence is not much different than Trump.

Both see women as objects only in slightly different ways. Trump sees women as a means to satisfy his base sexual depravity. Trump sees women as vessels to incubate men's seed--to be euphemistic. Neither think women should be in the public sphere except in the Madonna/Whore roles assigned to them in traditional patriarchy.

[Yavin4]

14. There's a lot that Mike doesn't understand

I didn't think they'd get any dumber than W. Then, we got Palin. Didn't think they get any dumber than Palin. Now, we get Pence. I am afraid of the next iteration.

[Wounded Bear]

15. This from the guy who wears his name tag upside down...

so he can read it.

[Fast Walker 52]

16. He is so amazingly sickening... and he calls himself a Christian

what a worthless piece of shit

[stopbush]

19. He is a Xian. Most Xians I know are bigoted assholes

who can cite the Bible to justify their bigotry.

Xianity is all about bigotry.

[Fast Walker 52]

23. Hillary is a Christian

but the good kind.

[stopbush]

29. The good Xians are the ones who disregard 90% of what is in the Bible

and have their views heavily influenced by secular, enlightened ideas.

They would lose little by chucking out the little they retain of Biblical teachings, mainly the guilt that the Bible depends on to enslave human minds.

[Fast Walker 52]

35. I agree

[SharonClark]

20. Agree 100+ and the comments are great!

[joeybee12]

18. Keep giving us sound bites to use in 2020

Note to Pence, America is not the homophobic, sexist, racist shithole that you occupy.

[workinclasszero]

24. IKR?

The defense of Trump will come back to haunt many republicans in the future!

[joeybee12]

26. The DNC is probably making a library of all this as we type! nt

[workinclasszero]

39. LOL

[uponit7771]

44. +1

[tonyt53]

21. Well no Mike, you can't. To understand it you'd have to have a functioning brain.

[bulloney]

22. People like Pence don't know how to process things when they're outside of their bubble.

Before becoming Trump's running mate, Pence was an unknown quantity to me. Now, he's some dominionist who's oblivious to world events.

[benld74]

25. Will this answer be enough to

Waken Indiana voters?
Hopefully it will

[vlyons]

27. Pence doesn't understand because he doesn't want to understand!

He's also a stupid dolt. I see the world from a Buddhist perspective. The greatest human fault, from which all other faults are derived is ignorance. Knowingly telling lies is very wicked, because it creates confusion and ignorance in others. Telling yourself lies to cover your own culpability in wrong-doing and harming others just keeps him locked in a vicious cycle of doing harm. His ignorance is that everyone can see his lies and bullshit, but not himself.

[Achilleaze]

32. + 1,000

[cilla4progress]

43. This is why the rest of the world,

And Americans through history, value education so much. Whereas contemporary Americans denounce and defund it. 😔

[vlyons]

46. Education is my #1 issue

Especially teaching liberal arts and humanities.

[Iliyah]

30. The movie "Idiocracy" ccomes to mind . . .

[CanonRay]

31. Clueless!

[blueseas]

33. Lacks empathy and sympathy

He needs to be re programmed to be human.

[TomCADem]

34. Pence Has an Aleppo Moment (nt)

[workinclasszero]

36. LOL

[Dark n Stormy Knight]

47. Bingo!

If he doesn't know what Michelle Obama was talking about, he is too ignorant of the real world to be in any position of power.

[Sunlei]

37. “To dismiss this as everyday locker-room talk is an insult to decent men everywhere”

M. Obama 10/2016

[NastyRiffraff]

38. He doesn't understand women, period

And a Black woman? Completely outside the narrow parameters of his tiny brain.

Michelle couldn't have been clearer, or more powerful. But Mike Pence doesn't understand "the basis" of her "claims." What the hell does that even mean?

[Cracklin Charlie]

40. Don't understand?

Then don't run for office, dum-dum!

[book_worm]

41. I want him to go down as bad as Trump and not use this as a stepping stone

for 2020. In his way Pence is just as bad as Trump.
