Mike Pence hoped being Trump’s worshipful manservant would protect him from the president’s collapse — but the pandemic’s on him now

Snip

Mike Pence is now fully engaged in saving Trump, not saving American lives. He has big ambitions of his own and plans to run for president. But he’d better hope Trump wins in November, because if he thinks he can run in four years if they lose this time, he needs to think again.

There’s a reason Trump put him in charge of the worst crisis of his presidency. It’s Pence’s pandemic now. And you can bet that Donald Trump will be the first one to hang it around his neck with one of his extra-long red ties. After all, if Trump loses this fall, there’s every reason to think he’ll be running against Pence in 2024.
