Karen Pence, the wife of Vice President Mike Pence, found herself completely horrified when she watched Donald Trumps infamous Access Hollywood tape in which he bragged about grabbing womens genitals.
In fact, according to a profile of Vice President Pence written by The Atlantics McKay Coppins, Karen Pence wanted to see her husband take over the Republican Partys nomination for the presidency in the wake of the Access Hollywood tape, and it wasnt just due to political opportunism.
She finds him reprehensiblejust totally vile, one ex-campaign aide told Coppins.
Coppins reveals that the Republican Party was working on ways to make Pence its nominee shortly after the Access Hollywood tape came out, and had even started batting around the idea of drafting former Bush Secretary of State Condoleeza Rice to be his running mate.

(4,341 posts)Wow, republicans really have nothing, not even the guys that repudiate Trump and many of the other republicans as well, I am talking about Flake and Corker, are not worth a dime.
Flake and Corker went public about their disgust but still, like Lemmings, voted in favour of the trash that their party proposes.

(15,290 posts)For those DU'ers not old enough to remember, Pat Nixon was always demurely at her husband's side. She never talked out of turn or did anything but defend her husband.
FYI, The New Yorker also did a long profile on Pence. They interviewed his mom and brother and both said Pence was always politically ambitious.
