Since no one in the mainstream media would ever dare write this, allow me: I’d like to give a round of applause to Vice President Mike Pence.

I can’t wait for the Trump-Deranged trolls to lose their minds as they read that opener.

Take a deep breath guys, because I’m just getting started!

We’ve always known that the vice president is a religious man. I mean, how could we forget? Since the day he was picked as VP in 2016, the media has never missed an opportunity to mock him for being an evangelical, born-again Christian.

Way to go, Grace!

Howie Carr’s sidekick on the best radio show in the country.

[Does so]

Agreed. Get a Smart phone and listen anywhere.

All the punks that ripped Trump for putting “non-scinece” Pence at the head of this look like fools now. How about that scumbag on Nightline last week? I won’t even repeat what that worthless POS asked the VP.

[Engraved-on-His-hands]

Good article.

I have been a fan of Mike Pence for a long time. I know that not everyone here is. I am a fan. No apologies.

[Kickass Conservative]

Pence is very impressive. He is clear, concise and doesn’t let the Bastards get him down.

When that snarky Moron on Nightline accused him of having Blood on his Hands he just moved past the slander. If that were me, I would have hunted that SOB down like he was a Feral Hog in Texas.

[Buckeye McFrog]

I feel much better about Pence as a POTUS watching him do this job. I was afraid he was too nice a guy. But although his style is very different from Trump’s he does not suffer fools.

[combat_boots]

I don’t trust him.

But the dog liked him. Conan liked his but could rip his throat out on command.

Dogs know.

sb *him

[noexcuses]

I’m glad VP Pence is on our side.

I am extremely p*ssed that Pelosi, Schumer, and the other “resistance” have chosen to not HELP rather than just offer criticisms. Talk about unAmerican!!!

[chris37]

I was not a fan of Mike Pence.

I am now a fan of Mike Pence.

[Leep]

I like VP Pence. Not sure i want him for President.

[Ozymandias Ghost]

Anyone notice that Trump and Pence have reversed the normal “good cop”/”bad cop” roles of the president and the vice president? I think Pence has grown exponentially as the vice president and I have come to admire him more and more over time.

[ConservativeStatement]

He deserves praise for his composure after having to sit next to Pelosi.

[BraveMan]

Don Lemon’s disgust for Pence’s devout ways was even less subtle. The CNN host panicked over the horrifying idea that the VP would pray over the pandemic. “Is that the person you want in charge of the coronavirus outbreak? Someone who needs to pray on something instead of looking at science? Come on. Let’s be real about it. Let’s be honest about it. Is that the person you want in charge?”

Can we dispense with the notion all Christians have no regard for science? Just asking . . .

[Ozymandias Ghost]

Yes, he does. I would require physical restraints in the same situation!

[livius]

Lol! Maybe we should make your dog a pundit.

But seriously I’ve gotten a lot more respect for Pence too. I never disliked him or thought he was treacherous but he didn’t seem very strong. Guess I was wrong.

Iron fist in a velvet glove. And a serious Christian.

[Ozymandias Ghost]

Post 16 was to you ...not sure how I messed that up.

[ryderann]

I believe a little bit of Trump has rubbed off on Pence, and a little bit of Pence has rubbed off on Trump.

[dandiegirl]

Pence can put on the best poker face of anyone in the world.
