Mr. Vice-President, I say this with all due respect: Shut up.

He’s like the cartoon crook’s tiny little henchman who stands behind him and says “Yeah, boss! Teach him a lesson!” Not as funny, but more contemptible, though, because believe it or not this is real life. : (

Did Pence condemn Trump for his tropes?

a clip of POTUS pushing anti-Semitic tropes while speaking to the Republican Jewish Coalition in Washington, D.C. four years ago.

“You’re not going to support me because I don’t want your money,” Trump said at the time. “You want to control your own politicians.”

He also told the group that he is “a negotiator like you folks; we’re negotiators.”

Hey wing nut Pence…Omar’s tweets were NOT antisemitic - PERIOD!

Omar was stating the FACTS about the Israel lobby and its illegal influence on the US Government and our policies in the Middle East.

Omar’s tweets were nothing compared to you and Trump and Republicans…clean up your own racist house before attacking others with fake news!

Odd time to pick, to finally speak out about somebody’s tweets.
Pence a real profile in courage.

It appears Omar, AOC, and others in this new incoming class are of a tougher mettle than these idiots realize, and they are quite ready to withstand these stale tactics in order to take on the entrenched rot which the likes of Pence represent. I look forward.

Yeah, y’all kinda missed the boat on this one. Democrats called on Omar to apologize, which she did eloquently and at length, and the story is stone dead to anybody but the Foxiest die-hard.

I know it takes modern-day Trump-aligned Republicans a few days to put two and two together, “oh, that could be interpreted in a somewhat racist vein, oh, we’re supposed to say racism is bad, let’s condemn her!”, but you just plain missed your shot.

And, Donnie has faced how many consequences because of words or actions? Guess you’ve not been paying too much attention as to what comes out of his mouth.

And I will add “Mr. Vice-President, I say this with due lack of respect: Shut the Fuck up.”

It’s a good thing they are, seeing as their own Party’s “leadership” turned Rep Omar into chum and fed her to the sharks…

She had already faced consequences. You, on the other hand, have yet to face consequences for Flynn. Your time in the barrel is coming. And the consequences of working with a hostile power are far graver than having to give a public apology for an anti-Semitic tweet.

Gaslighting Mike

Oh, the irony!

What did you do for the Inauguration, Mikey? You do know that wasn’t covered by Exec. Priv.?

Gee, what a shame that neither the Current Occupant nor Q-Tip have any influence at all over committee assignments in Congress. Thanks for sharing your opinion, you may now return to your regularly-scheduled “Knee Time” in front of your boss.
