Where's Pence...Why Wasn't He At The Bible Photo OP?

[Me.]

Seems like the bible pic would be right up his alley.

1. He actually out did the other traitor and tweeted something relatively decent about

the killing, I think...I wont look for it again or link to it.

Pence cant have a conscience though, but if he does he will go to the GOP and WH staff and insist on the 25th.

[Me.]

4. Tweeted?

Is he hiding out?

5. I think it was...found this though

Love Steve Kerr

On Friday, as protests erupted around the country following the killing of George Floyd, Vice President Mike Pence sent out a tweet decrying the protests. But he followed it with a tweet that said, in part: “We will always stand for the right of Americans to peacefully protest and let their voices be heard.”

As many sports fans quickly pointed out, however, Pence had very memorably and very famously not stood for the right for Americans to peacefully protest, when he walked out of an NFL game in 2017 after players kneeled during the playing of the national anthem. In what was pretty clearly a publicity stunt, Pence had done the opposite of what he was now saying in a tweet he was committed to doing.

Sports fans called him out quickly, en masse. And now some bigger names have gotten involved.

Warriors head coach Steve Kerr called out Pence in a quote tweet, asking how he had “the gall” to say what he did.

You’ve gotta be kidding me. How do you have the gall to say this?

6. Honestly...Is He In Quarantine?

[Evergreen Emerald]

2. I wonder if he has covid.

Perhaps the press should be looking into that. He has been out of sight for awhile now.

[DaBronx]

3. He must be comforting a concerned Senator

7. He was involved in the planning of the church visit

But remained in the WH and watched on TV

Per NYTimes

9. I'm Calling BS On That

who told them that...Tom Cotton?

[GusBob]

11. Huh?

I am uncertain as to what Tom Cotton has to do with the events that occurred with the church

But the N.Y. Times did an in depth and well reported piece on the events surrounding the church visit.
8 different journalists were in the byline. They even knew the name and the cost of the designer purse that Ivanka pulled the Bible from ( that cracked me up)

One of the details of the reporting was Pences involvement as I described

12. They Admitted They Were Wrong With THe Printing Of The Cotton OP

and they have been wrong about many things over the years including HRC, to whom they apologized on page 16 after keeping their slams about her on the front pages for months. I simply don't believe Pence sat somewhere phoning. It's not part of his MO over the last three years, he's always by the dear leader's side. And he has been careless in regard to the way he handled the virus. I'm betting we'll find out he wasn't on the phone in due time.

[ooky]

8. Maybe he was afraid of getting hit by a lightning bolt. nt

[IggleDuer]

10. Not his church ...

... not his book.

[UTUSN]

13. Mother said "No". (She wept when SHITLER won the Electors. )

[malaise]

14. Don't see him here either

Watching to see if he's on the side

[Me.]

15. Just Saw Him

At this morning's presser, in his usual position. So what's the real reason he wasn't at the big OP?

[malaise]

16. Yep

He was there
