Vice President Mike Pence initially counseled President Donald Trump not to release the memo of his July call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, fretting about the precedent it would set.
According to the Wall Street Journal, Pence got on board with the memo’s release when Trump made up his mind that the optics of holding it back would be worse than making public details from part of the call.
Though Pence insists that the memo exonerates Trump, it clearly lays out an exchange where Trump reminds Zelensky of the U.S.’ financial aid to Ukraine before asking him to investigate former Vice President Joe Biden’s son, Hunter.
Typical behavior for Vice President Lickspittle. (hat tip to George Will…)
One more doofus who was too stupid to realize that releasing the crime is worse than the coverup.
Mother Pence is already measuring for new drapes in the Oh-So-White House…
Trump. Barr. Pence. Hmmm, who throws who under the bus first? Barr is the smartest. Trump is the most petty. Pence is the most… Pencey?
