Vice President Mike Pence declined to call Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s probe a hoax, but did say he wants to see the investigation finished soon during a Thursday morning appearance on NBC’s Today Show.
“It’s been about a year since this investigation began,” Pence told NBC’s Andrea Mitchell. “Our administration’s provided over a million documents. We’ve fully cooperated in it. And in the interest of the country, I think it’s time to wrap it up.”
“I would very respectfully encourage the special counsel and his team to bring their work to completion,” he added.
Be careful what you wish for, champ.
At first blush, you think he’s supporting his boss. But really?
Someone’s itchy to get to sit in the big boy chair!
ETA: I always find these “Let’s casually sit in a big empty hangar with the big airplane in the background” location choices very odd – unless we’re talking about KAI buying access or Boeing losing hundreds of millions in sales to Iran and possibly having to lay off workers. THEN it’s a great location!
I “respectfully” request that the highly respected special counsel pack up his bags and go home without discovering the extent of the criminal enterprise in which I am involved.
Nervous, are you?
Oh hi, Mike. Been a while. Nice job keeping your head down and staying off the ridge line. Not going to help if you’re dirty but always wise anyway. P.S. I very respectfully encourage you to fuck yourself.
