As I posted earlier:
Not to defend Pence, but this pickiness makes our side look like fools, which I think started with Glenn Beck’s team.
Pence’s pitch comes as he prepares to pump gas—before selecting grade, and squeezing handle. He had already done some prep with fuel door & cap and paying, after which time he returned to cab to replace or retrieve wallet, they assume we’ll understand.
It’s weak from a production standpoint, but several takes as normally required with actual pumping of gas would overfill the tank.
Sorry, I like to be on very solid ground with my critiques (per tagline). His campaign is not worth this much energy.
His recent admission that he “could have” paused the voting, except for the chaos, was priceless, bolstering Trump’s claim that the procedural rules were tightened to prevent a VP from such action because at the time it was proper and lawful——just rare.
Pence deliberately sought to make “our side” look like fools, by his behavior in the ad.
Not to mention that just about all gasoline pumps have an automatic shutoff that prevents overfill, barring defective ones. Certainly encouraged self-service at the pump, even in Oregon of late.
