Vice President Mike Pence took a page out of the President’s book this week by staying at Trump’s resort on the west coast of Ireland in order to attend meetings 142 miles away in Dublin, which sits on Ireland’s east coast. For comparison, that’s like staying in Portland, Oregon, to work in Seattle, Washington. Pence’s team at first claimed that Trump suggested the Vice President stay at his Irish resort, but they quickly walked that claim back. The new explanation? Pence supposedly wanted to stay near his ancestral home and Hurricane Dorian prompted the White House to make some last-minute bookings.
