Tucker to Mike Pence: "Our economy has degraded, the suicide rate has jumped, public filth, and disorder and crime have exponentially increased and yet your concern is that the Ukrainians ... don't have enough tanks?"
Twitter ^ | July 14 | Tucker

Tucker: "I'm sorry, Mr. Vice President. You are distressed that the Ukrainians don't have enough American tanks? Every city in the United States has become much worse over the past three years. Drive around. There's not one city that's gotten better. And it's visible. Our economy has degraded, the suicide rate has jumped, public filth, and disorder and crime have exponentionally increased and yet your concern is that the Ukrainians, a country most people can't find on a map, don't have enough tanks? I think it's a fair question to ask: Where's the concern for the United States in that?"

Pence: "That's not my concern."

Wow. Tucker destroyed Pence just as Roger Mudd destroyed Ted Kennedy in 1980.

“ Pence: “That’s not my concern.”

There’s a ready made campaign commercial.

Kill shot. Pence made it worse by dismissing the legitimate question as a “routine”. Pence didn’t have a chance before this but this was a Dukakis helmet.

Kill shot.

That's not how you spell suicide.

Pence’s answer was direct and stupid beyond words. “I've heard that routine before.... blah-blah-blah.” He followed this up with his standard stump speech, but to begin with “That's not my concern” was idiotic. Idiotic. Idiotic.

Pence’s Deep State handlers could not care less about average folks in the US—so why should he?

;-)

Any decent politician, even a neo-con like Pence, should be able to navigate the question of ok you love Ukraine, how about America? Instead he got angry and blundered the response. He never had a chance, but this was still gold to see the stake through the heart of Mike Pence.

Mike Pence’s answer to Tucker’s question is what any good globalist would say. Never liked the guy, but I didn’t know why. Based on this any other things he has said and done show me why my intuition/gut feeling was correct.

Boy! Regardless of the sensibility of the rest of his answer, this short quip on the front end will come back to haunt him forever. (Reminiscent of “Please, clap!” JEB)

But how many Americans watched this show by Tucker?
I have not seen it on Newsmax or Fox news or any of the alphabet networks.

The WSJ posted a portion of this exchange in their 7/15/23 - 7/16/23 weekend edition. Their intention was apparently to show how Pence’s response was a kill-shot at Tucker. So the MSM has quite a different spin on this encounter.

Pence looked very perturbed during the question, and states probably one of the dumbest answers in US political history, “I’m not concerned”.
