Mike Pence Calls Trump's Thin-Skinned Attacks On Critics 'Refreshing'
All I can think when I see Mike Pence speak is "the banality of evil". He's soft-spoken, warm, reassuring and utterly rationalizing an insane and fascist regime. It's like finding out that Mr. Rogers was a spokesperson for Mussolini.
On Meet the Press, Chuck Todd gently questioned the vice president as to whether it might be a good idea for Trump to toughen up and use his time more constructively than petulantly tweeting at federal judges, questioning their statuses. "It's like any time he gets some sort of critique, he wants to demonify them, you know, make them go away. Is that healthy?"
HA! Uh, no, Chuck. I don't think that question needs to be asked. It's not healthy. It's not normal. It's not appropriate. And it's a total embarrassment on the world's stage to have such a thin-skinned toddler posing as president lashing out whenever something doesn't go his way.
But Pence knows his job is to reassure low info voters that despite all evidence to the contrary, we haven't put a willfully ignorant narcissist in the highest office in the land. So he smoothly responds, "I think people find it not only refreshing that they understand the president's mind and how he feels about things and he expresses himself in a unique way."
