You'll never confuse Mike Pence with Bob Corker or John Kasich

Like I said in the other thread, how much ya think this obvious stunt cost? sending the Vice President to a football game ain't cheap

If only the snowflake cared as much about sexual assault, colluding with Russia, gun violence and gay people as he does his precious little flag.

by **Robert J Sakimano** Sun Oct 08, 2017 2:53 pm

My guess us that the fragile little snowflake planned to leave all along.

Sweet stunt from a clown administration.

by **Turtleneck** Sun Oct 08, 2017 3:00 pm

Please keep in mind that his boss's attack on Senator McCain's service record was not disrespectful.

I think he got a phone call. Trump has been on the twitters all day. I'm sure he saw Pence was at the game.

my thoughts and prayers are with him as the snowflake takes that long, sad walk out of the stadium.

I don't think Pence is devious or clever enough to pull off that stunt on his own.

well - even though I'm sorry that their feelings are hurt, at the end of the day, the fine, upstanding patriots get thoughts and prayers and we get football.

I can live with that.

yeah, I've never seen a group of people with such contempt for America as this administration has.

It's somewhat refreshing that all but the deplorables are coming around.

by **Watch Out Pylon!** Sun Oct 08, 2017 4:28 pm

It's pretty damn obvious Trump, via Pence is trying to get fans to walk out too. Sad.

I doubt many people left as they were honoring Peyton Manning at halftime.

Not specifically that game. More for weeks to come. Pence's walkout plants the seed. Maybe it's not that obvious.

Nobody is gonna spend fuckin $200 for an NFL game only to walk out. Of course, if they do, what the fuck does the NFL care? They already paid.

These people can't even get this shit right.

It would almost be worth going just to point and laugh at the fragile snowflakes as they storm out.

I doubt it will happen either but the mouthbreathers that comment on Fox and Breitbart are already talking about it.

I'm not clicking on that pylon.

aren't these the same knuckle-draggers that were really sad about people politicizing the national anthem?

Never been to Breitbart? Oh man, it the fucking epicenter of the alt-right movement. It's truly horrifying. I'm guessing this is where Goose gets a lot of his "news".

We probably paid for extra Secret Service so Pence could go to the game, say he was excited to be there, got a call from Trump, then had to leave.

Lol Nigel he didn't get a call. The whole thing was scripted.

Apparently reporters who were on the trip with him were told to stay in the van outside of the stadium because it was going to be a short trip. Fuckin dipshits seriously can't even pull this off right

by **Robert J Sakimano** Sun Oct 08, 2017 6:57 pm

Ya gotta admit, we live in a great country where black people can peacefully protest and rich white people can call them names and storm out in anger.

yeah, this whole thing was scripted and I'm sure the mainstream media is eating it up.

by **Robert J Sakimano** Sun Oct 08, 2017 7:06 pm

Apparently the snowflake tweeted a picture of him and his lovely wife enjoying the Colts game... 3 years ago.. then became so distraught by black people that he had to leave.. today.

Trump asked him to leave. Either by phone, twitter, text, or pigeon.

It is hilarious yet scary how Trump has identified how stupid his fanbase is and can orchestrate PR stunts like this to cater to them.

by **NigelUno** Sun Oct 08, 2017 11:56 pm

The price tag for Pence's trip to Indianapolis

Here is an estimate of just the air costs (which does not include costs of advance personnel, Secret Service or support on the ground).

According to the Air Force, flying a C-32, the model of plane used for Air Force 2, for one hour costs about $30,000. Pence's flight from Las Vegas to Indianapolis Saturday took about three hours and 20 minutes, so it cost about $100,000
Pence then flew from Indianapolis to Los Angeles on Sunday, which took about four hours and 45 minutes, costing about $142,500.

The grand total: about $242,500.

So staged. Good to know the Vice President doesn’t support the constitution.

you are correct but there’s another side to these stunts. The media and the left takes the bait everytime. Hes working on dividing the nation and controlling the discussion to his advantage.

by **steveschneider** Mon Oct 09, 2017 7:36 am

Bob Costas said that in previous years networks didn’t even air the anthem. They used the time slot to sell beer, cars, nationwide insurance and so on. Because of the controversy they now air the anthem.

yep - the mainstream media has been beholden to the sexual predator since day one - he's great for their ratings and they both know that America is a very stupid country.

by **Rocinante** Mon Oct 09, 2017 12:54 pm

Don't let Trump claim credit for this. Pence is a fucking idiot and planned this lowest common denominator stunt all along

What's the deal with Columbus Day? Bee's talking about Trump making it great again or some such shit. Did Trump send out a tweet saying everyone should have it off? I'm doing zero research on this one.

The guy has two annual traditions- pretending like he cares about Columbus Day (to trigger libs I guess?) and talking about eating meat on Fridays during lent. Basically.... his brain just ain't right.
