I will guess that many of you don’t like Mike Pence, but he has said a few things which I think are good:

  • He has said Trump’s tariffs will probably harm Americans
  • He has criticised Trump for not backing Ukraine
  • He seems to want to respect Canada’s sovereignty, describing Canada as “a great ally, whose soldiers have fought and died alongside Americans in every war since world war one”

    There’s nothing like an angry mob building a makeshift guillotine while chanting they want to hang you to make you change your viewpoint…

      They want to hang him for having these viewpoints though so I’m not sure what you’re getting at

      Yup. This has been common among politicians for the past 10 years.

      And the only takeaway should be that violence is the only consequence these fuckers fear, and is a viable strategy currently only deployed by one side of the political spectrum.

      Fuck the high road.
