Sunday on ABC’s “This Week,” while commenting on the controversy over the phone call between President-elect Donald Trump and Taiwan President Tsai Ing-wen, Vice Present-elect Mike Pence said it was “a little mystifying” President Barack Obama Cuban dictator Raul Castro and be “hailed as a hero,” while President-elect Donald Trump receives criticism for taking call from the president of Taiwan.

Pence said, “We’ll deal with policy after January the 20. This was a courtesy call and plus I have to tell you, George, it’s a little mystifying to me that President Obama can reach out to a murdering dictator in Cuba in the last year and be hailed as a hero for doing it and President-elect Donald Trump takes a courtesy call from a democratically elected leader in Taiwan and it’s become something of a controversy.

This is an awesome example of how Team Trump handles the media. We are just as blessed to have Pence as our VP as we are Trump as our President. And with Trump's guardian angel Kellyanne providing cover, Trump continues to deflate the media, the RINO NeverTrumpers and the DemonRats at large.

And let us not forget the horrific trauma inflicted on snowflakes at various campuses by seeing MAGA in sidewalk chalk.

Oh, believe me, they will still keep calling it a dictatorship, even if the logic is empty. Republicans have become a thing that the media doesn’t care if none of them are in prison or not. These people just don’t care for the actual logic of their rants.

“Pence has a long way to go to be Presidential.”

We’ve noticed that Trump has Pence with him in almost every meeting and situation. It seems that he’s training Pence to learn The Art Of The Deal so he’ll have the right skills when it’s his turn. In turn, Pence can guide Trump in his religious journey.

Hey if we expect uniparty globalist media to ever write a story on how Trump has done something right or good, forget it.

Their agenda spin on anything Trump will be to spin anything he does negatively, to exclusively focus on the negative.

IF he does something that helps US jobs, it’ will be how he saved them, or that now foreign countries will be hurting, etc. Buckle up, they have not learned anything and are doubling down on this.

It’s not the slightest bit mystifying - it’s a perfect example of Leftist insanity and rabid Trump-bashing.
