Charles M. Blow: Mike Pence seems to be under some delusion that he has a chance at being elected president.
Former Vice President Mike Pence in Washington, June 9, 2022. "The public is left to parse oblique phrases as Pence attempts to put a little distance between himself and Trump without truly turning on him," writes New York Times columnist Charles M. Blow.There is one thing about Mike Pence: He shows himself to be a spineless weasel every chance he gets.
Is he fishing for a subpoena so it would look as if he had been compelled? Is he simply muddying the waters? It’s always hard to tell with Pence. People with unclear convictions are doomed to communicate unclearly. The public is left to parse oblique phrases as Pence attempts to put a little distance between himself and Trump without truly turning on him.
Maybe Pence believes that there are enough old-school, mainline Republicans silently sulking in the wings, waiting for a more traditional Republican like him to step in, someone who has touched the hem of the garment but has not put on the straitjacket, someone who is not Trump but was Trump adjacent.Almost no one wants a President Pence. He doesn’t have a lane or much of a chance. He’s a horrible politician.
That’s ridiculous. Personal? Sharing your favorite Bible verse isn’t like sharing your medical history. The Bible repeatedly exhorts Christians to share the Gospel, not to keep it guarded like your hand in a card game.
