Sorry, Mike Pence, You're Doomed - Frank Bruni 8/8

"He trumpets his conservative Christianity and avoids supping alone with any woman other than his wife, then turns around and steadfastly enables an avowed groper with a bulging record of profanely sexual comments.
He publishes a testimonial, Confessions of a Negative Campaigner, in which he invokes Jesus while vowing never to repeat such political ugliness in the future, then turns around and collaborates with a politician whose ugliness knows no limit.
No wonder he wants and expects a reward as lavish as the White House itself: He sold his soul. But I dont think he studied the contract closely enough and thought the whole thing through.
Theres no political afterlife in this equation, just the loopy, mortifying limbo in which he and so many of Trumps other acolytes dwell."
