If He Wasn’t Such a Jerk, I’d Feel Sorry For Mike Pence. But, He’s a Jerk. So, There’s That.
Mike Pence is a jerk. There’s no way over, under, or around that. Hell, his jerk tree is so high that an eight legged cat couldn’t climb it.
But, I almost felt sorry for him yesterday.
Pence was jabbering about how there was going to be proof, proof I tell you, that Donald Trump did not grope all those women. Bless his heart, he was damn near gleeful about it.
“Before the day is out there will be more evidence that calls into question these [sexual assault] allegations,” Pence said Friday morning on CBS.
“Just stay tuned. I know that there is more information that is coming out that will back his claim that this is all categorically false,” he added.
So, we all waited, making notes of how we would word our sincere apology to Donald Trump.
Honey, my Schaden is filled with a ton of Freude. Scamming Trump got scammed by a scammer.
A British man named Anthony Gilberthorpe has stepped forward to serve as an exculpatory witness for Trump. He says he was sitting across the aisle from Trump and Jessica Leeds on the airplane flight where Trump was all over her. Gilberthorpe says that Leeds was the aggressor.
Somebody in the Trump campaign should learn to use Google because they would have found a bushel basket of cringeworthy things about Gilberthorpe. And after yesterday they would have found this.
Grasp that straw, Pence! You’re more of jerk today than yesterday.
Pence, is not just a jerk. He is a enabler. Would someone play him all the tapes of his boss bragging about his groping etc.
1Then ask him did he lie then or lie now. And way are you telling lies with every breath. Are you telling lies in Jesus’s name?
That fills in Mike’s canasta hand of his qualifications to be part of the st00pid coalition. Give him his “I’m with Stupid” tee shirt.
However he gained entry into the Hall of Fame for st00pid, when he could not say a few comforting words to the little girl who felt body shamed by some of Donnie’s crass and ignorant remarks. More of that “compassionate” style conservatism, Mike?
2Meet Mike Pence: “I’m a Christian, a conservative and a Republican — in that order. Oh, and hypocrite. Did I mention hypocrite? Because, when there’s power to be had, all those others go right out the window.”
Sorry, Mike. You can kiss that power g’bye. Why are you so busily writing your opponents’ 2020 attack ads for them?
3I, too, was on that flight from… um… wherever. I was sitting on Donnie’s lap. (The flight was overbooked. It’s a long story.) Ms. Leeds was a perfect lady. And Donnie? Well, let’s just say whatever hard thing (things?) he had in his pants pocket made that flight very uncomfortable! Uh… what? You’ll have to excuse me. My 15 minutes of fame just started and I’m on the clock. Ta ta!
4Anthony Gilberthorpe could not have been sitting across the aisle from Donald Trump on that flight, because, well, it was the 1980’s!! They didn’t have aisles on LD-50’s and DC-13’s back in the 1980’s!!
Planes were too narrow in those days! We didn’t have the technology!
You can look it up!!
5Of course the Dumbo campaign came up with a crackpot liar to backup Dumbo’s crackpot lies. They didn’t bother to check him out, just like they didn’t bother to check out Drumpf’s criminal past before letting him run in the presidential campaign.
6Sheer and abject stupidity.
While I’m sitting here clenching my teeth, Juanita Jean’s writing is spot on. How can a self confessed religious guy sell his soul for political advancement? Lots of prayer I suppose.
7If the Orange One set about to discredit himself, he wouldn’t be able to do a better job if he hired a high priced PR firm to do it. Doin’ a right fine job all by himself.
And this couldn’t look worse for Mike Pence’s credibility than if he were caught in a gay bar with a rent boy in his arms. He deserves every ounce of that ton of Fraude from your Schaden, Juanita!
8The danger is that he is handsome, well spoken and able to play the part of a reasoned, empathetic individual. He is none of those things, but the ignorant, rabid right wing base will never scratch beneath the surface.
9And now there’s this:
“A progressive advocacy group is launching an advertising campaign accusing Indiana Gov. Mike Pence, who also is the Republican vice-presidential nominee, of allowing voter suppression after state police raided the offices of a voter registration program aimed at signing up African Americans….
“A spokesman for the state police told local news media that “at least 10” applications were confirmed to be fraudulent.
“Varoga estimates that 45,000 people, most of them African Americans, might not be able to vote on Nov. 8 because their applications were seized during the raid.”

10Pence makes me quite nervous. Reminds me of cheney ( small caps on purpose). He would be the power behind The Hair. Hair is not smart enought to play the game….sort of like Arnold here in California when he was Gov.
11These are the drop outs from the gang that couldn’t shoot straight. What do you expect?
12Here’s a lovely and illustrated explanation of what a woman should do if the Mangled Apricot Hellbeast tries to grope them: (It’s beautiful.)

14With apologies to the Sprial Staircase,
“You’re more of jerk today than yesterday.”
“But only half as much as tomorrow…”
OMG … love the graphic, Debbo!! LOL

16Debbo:
17Well, tablet is acting up. But thumbs up for the graphic. With permission, I plan to share that a lot.
18Guess what? The latest lie from the rwnj – the women coming forward work for the Clinton Foundation. Just heard that one.
19“Give him his “I’m
withStupid” tee shirt.”there, fixed that for ya.
20With a tiny bit of research…
AG is 54. The incident in question happened in 1980 or 1981. That puts him at 18-19 years old. Wow. And flying first class! Wow. Apparently my life has sucked.
21pence is hopeless and IN hopes he chooses to never darken our state again……
