I feel so much safer now that I know Pence has this. [View all]

I listened to about 20 minutes of the dog and pony show until I just could not stand it any more.

Is the only job of the Vice President to sing the praises of his master? I worked for a while in state government, so I have seen a lot of bootlickers, but Pence takes the prize, that bastard is the biggest bootlicker I have ever seen publicly or privately.

I am comforted that 65,000 (or what ever the number was) people a year die of the regular flu and that we only have one serious case of Coronavirus. The implication was that if a person dies of a flue-like illness in the future, all you have to do is skip the expensive test, and he died of seasonal flu; problem solved, pandemic ended.

The Don says he has this so, based on his judgement, honesty and forthrightness I believe him.

It is so hard for me to accept this Alice in Wonderland existence we are living through today.
