An October Surprise for Mike Pence's Dog: Death

The Slot ^ | 10/26/2016 | Brendan O'Connor

Tragedy has befallen the Trump-Pence campaign, which was already struggling, and it comes in the form of that tiny, pup-sized grim reaper who comes for all doggies eventually.

[GilGil]

There is a meme going around that democrats are bullies. Throw in that they are sadistic and soulless as well. To call them bullies at this point would be a compliment. Sick!

Politics makes people act like d**ks and feel justified about it.

[wattojawa]

This might give them some sympathy vote though.

A person doesn’t have to be human to be great in this world.

[MNDude]

Somebody poisoned Roger Stone’s dog today also.

That's pretty sick alright. Pence is a great guy.

Gov. Mike Pence and First Lady Karen Pence pose with their family dog, Maverick.

the Trump-Pence campaign, which was already struggling

Yeah, struggling through those 20 - 30 k stadium rallies, record setting primary votes, floods of new voter registrations, etc.

It would be much easier to just have a phony rally in front of three busloads of paid attendees in a high school gym...

Yup, there it is--Trump/Pence struggling campaign.

[VanDeKoik]

I feel bad for the dog.

Mike Pence - well, I hope he chokes to death on shards of glass. F*** him and his history of jailing women who have abortions.

Because an extremist feminist blog's readers could not just say "sorry for your loss" and go on with their sad lives.

Such a beautiful pup..RIP sweet Maverick

I'm not clicking that site.

So did someone kill Pence's dog ?

If so, is there a suspect ?

[infool7]

Wow, from the comments at the site these people are really dark and twisted. I think that no matter the outcome of the election they will not be changing much.

Grieve for the America that was and is no more.

[laconic]

Yes, the campaign is “struggling”?? down by 3 tonite in the Fox poll where it was down by 6 a few days ago. Down by five in CNN, not 12 like the phony ABC poll. Ahead in Florida by 2 (Bloomberg) and in Ohio by 4, cut her lead in half to 4 in New Hampshire in a hostile poll, ahead again in the LA/USC poll.

Natural causes.

Some of the tweets were mean.

About Mike Pence, not about the dog.

[GilGil]

No the dog just died in the night.

Maverick, the Pence family dog, dies

Gov. Mike Pence is campaigning out west for Donald Trump, but the loss of a family pet has his heart in the Hoosier state.

“Heavy hearts today,” Pence tweeted Wednesday. “Our beagle of 13 years passed away quietly last night. Rest in Peace, Maverick. We will miss you.”

The campaign shared a photo of Pence and First Lady Karen Pence hugging Maverick on the doorstep of the governor’s residence.

The Pence family adopted Maverick in Virginia when he was 2.

The Pences also have two cats, Oreo and Pickle; a bunny, Marlon Bundo; and a snake, Sapphira.

Ok, thanks to you both for the info.

Tho it wouldn't have surprised me to hear the words strychnine, etc.

I truly hate the left, regardless.

(additional disclaimer: i also like most dogs more than most people)

No kidding. Why give trolls what they want/lack...namely, attention?

[TLI]

Yep, must be a heck of a job getting in and out of that place.

See, if you do it this way you can probably park the car just outside of the the back door.

But this would be hillary's dream come true...
