This is Dem operative bullslit...

targeted to divide.

[PGR88]

thanks - any in-depth sources you recommend for analysis of this?

[Not A Snowbird]

says Joe Lockhart, a former press secretary

And he would know this how?

[RummyChick]

President not getting along with VP is nothing new.

Reagan and his boss Nancy did not like Bush.
Obama didn’t like Biden
Etc

[Varsity Flight]

They’d love another Gerald Ford for eight long years.

[DoodleDawg]

... if he promised to stay in line.

Yeah what were the chances of that?

[Sans-Culotte]

Rather than defend the law and argue why it was needed Pence capitulated which led to even more blood letting and now the GOP won’t touch religious issues at all here and happily supports the gay lobby.

This was a red flag for me when I heard that Pence had been chosen. But veeps are chosen to help the ticket appeal to more voters, and Pence probably filled that bill.

[DoodleDawg]

It’s be interesting if Pence would stand down for re-election.

Pence is not going to stand down, not voluntarily. He'll have to be replaced. But I agree the question is with whom?

[Buckeye McFrog]

My worry about Pence (and I am actually sorry I have to say this) is that with the rate at which this country is becoming socially libertine I fear that by the time 2024 rolls around his rock-ribbed traditional values are going to be viewed as a weird abnormality by most voters. Unacceptably rigid.

That is our society’s fault and not Pence’s.

[trebb]

I haven’t heard or seen Pence being anything but 100% behind his President....except in these leftist-spawned hit pieces.

[Redwood71]

I see they wheeled him out for a shot at trying to throw dirt whether it’s true or not. Our old buddy Joe is now a member of Edelman Public Affairs, an information changing group.

Edelman’s openly admits to trying to build, engage and mobilize powerful coalitions anchored by local influencers, grassroots advocates and allied organizations to reframe the narrative, shift public perception and deliver policy victories. In other words, they do anything they can to change perception. It’s called to “con” the public. And sometimes they, shall we say, stretch the truth some. He is well qualified.

Geeze the grabbing at straws just to get us to back down from Trump is getting boring.

They have nothing!

WIN-O-RAMA

[Buckeye McFrog]

Well Trump’s personel selections in general have not exactly been stellar.

Roger that. He can NOT repeat that mistake in a second term. He needs to conduct mass firings on 1/21/2021 and have a slate of loyal replacements from OUTSIDE THE SWAMP ready to go.

[Alberta's Child]

Joe Lockhart has made a career as a propagandist -- first for the Clintons, then for the NFL.

Take a hike, Joe ... and go peddle that sh!t to Creepy Joe supporters.

[Alberta's Child]

Rather than defend the law and argue why it was needed Pence capitulated which led to even more blood letting and now the GOP won’t touch religious issues at all here and happily supports the gay lobby.

Pence played the role of a politician perfectly in that case. He was everything his constituents expected him to be -- a tough guy when it didn't seem to matter, a simpering loser when it DID matter, and about as reliable as a fart in the wind.

That's also why Pence -- in a post-Trump era -- couldn't win a presidential election if he ran unopposed.

[faucetman]

“Vice” President? The VP only has a job if the president dies or is incapacitated or removed from office.

Otherwise, the occasional tie breaker vote, state funerals, and meetings the president doesn’t want to go to.

The VP has ZERO power, so there can be no “power struggle”.

[Carriage Hill]

I gave-up on Fox News a couple months ago.

[Buckeye McFrog]

I find life is SO much happier without cable news.

If I could find a cable package that was all-sports-no-news I’d take it.

[billyboy15]

UHHH, say you do understand a Vice President is only chosen if he or she is bland vanilla and has NO controversy surrounding him at the time he was chosen or at anytime in his past.

I like Gingrich, but he was a very polarizing figure and would not helped Trump at all.

Why do you think the Vice Presidency is described as not being worth a bucket of warm spit?
