The Curious "Silence" of Mike Pence.

I believe that Vice President
Mike Pence has ambitions
if the Trump Presidency
turns over .

Vice President Mike Pence is one of the most odd ball figures in ever so dwindling Trump administration cabinet .  Pence is often seen in the background when Trump has his photo ops with the press , (##)>>he always has this strange gaze on his face . (1.1)>>Rumors of Pence's presidential ambitions seem to resurface whenever Trump’s political prospects look weakest. With all the rage that been going on with the Trump administration . Honestly we might be on the brink . Mike Pence seems to be "odd" for a evangelical who stands behind the most controversial  American  President ever . He is nothing but a priest in a political grab . At a appearance before a pastors conference in Washington DC, Vice President Mike Pence outlined how the Trump administration has championed causes important to the evangelical community and implored them to continue to, (1.2)>>"share the good news of Jesus Christ.” While the vice-president’s message had a spiritual tone, his defense of (1.2.2)>>Trump is at odds with his  Christian values . Donald J Trump is the opposite of Pence's "values"  , here is a man who should have rang a bell of warning to the evangelicals like Pence . While the tone of most American  Evangelicals Christians  to somehow found a way to "forgive" (1.3)>>Trump's past , his sordid relationships , business dealings

make him less like a "Christian" . Mike Pence has been a silent watch dog on Trump . I would use the word "eerie" silence . While Trump has been outspokenly outrageous using Twitter [being the "leaker" in chief ] But, at this point, with the president re-enacting the Tell-Tale Heart in public and all over the electric Twitter machine, you have to wonder , not a peep of criticism from Pence. In Pence, Trump has found an obedient deputy whose willingness to suffer indignity and humiliation at the pleasure of the president appears boundless. When Trump comes under fire for describing white nationalists as “very fine people,” Pence is there to assure the world that he is actually a man of great decency. When Trump needs someone to fly across the country to an NFL game so he can walk out in protest of national-anthem kneelers, Pence heads for Air Force Two.  Pence in my view is probably the "real" President of the United States . I can't imagine Donald Trump having any poliical experience , never holding public office , yet Pence is the perfect

I wonder  how the left has called
Trump as a puppet of
Putin , but look
behind .

coach giving him advice . You have to compare Obama when he took office , he built his platform by installing his political adversaries in positions [ Hillary & Biden ]  but Pence might be hard pressed to figure out Trump’s “real” feelings on any number of issues he’s spent his political career defending. On abortion, it took Trump several do-overs to settle on an incomprehensible view of an issue Pence has spoken passionately on for years.  The word "puppet" was used to describe Trump. Even since the so-called Russia probe investigation . Well its not exactly been  Putin pulling Trump's strings if you look at the man really behind the Oval Office , a bit more closely . The Republican establishment took control of the election in 2016 , ousting Hillary's chances in a coup that looked as if  outside meddling had occurred. While Trump has not yet voiced the most explicit version of this conspiracy publicly, he has been slowly building the case that the Justice Department investigation is, in fact, a Deep State plot to delegitimize his presidency or even force him out of office. After Trump threatened to “totally destroy” (2.1)>>North Korea, Gail Collins, the Times columnist, praised Vice-President Mike Pence as someone who at least “seems less likely to get the planet blown up.” This summer, an opinion column by Dana Milbank, of the Washington Post, appeared under the headline “ ‘president pence’ is sounding better and better.”  (2.2)>>Pence has other plans. New York Times article in which dozens of Republican sources said influential party actors, including Pence, “have begun what amounts to a shadow campaign for 2020—as if the current occupant of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue weren’t involved.” The “sheer disarray surrounding this presidency,” the report said, has “prompted Republican officeholders to take political steps unheard-of so soon into a new administration.” 

NOTES AND COMMENTS:

(##)>>he always has this strange gaze on his face .  Mustering a devotional gaze always in the background when a photo-op comes .(1.1)>>Rumors of Pence’s presidential ambitions.Pence, who has dutifully stood by the President, mustering a devotional gaze rarely seen since the days of Nancy Reagan, serves as a daily reminder that the Constitution offers an alternative to Trump. The worse the President looks, the more desirable his understudy seems. The more Trump is mired in scandal, the more likely Pence’s elevation to the Oval Office becomes, unless he ends up legally entangled as well.  (1.2)>>"share the good news of Jesus Christ.” Not to take the Lord's name in vain . I find that American politicians , some Democrats , mostly Republicans have taken to the Pulpit to preach politics , policies just to win votes . Con-servaties as they have called themselves have succumbed to the alt-extreme level of the Tea Party movement that emerged during the Obama era .   (1.2.2)>>Trump is at odds with his  Christian values . Pence attempted public repentance by personal essay. His article, “Confessions of a Negative Campaigner,” ran in newspapers across the state. “Christ Jesus came to save sinners,” the essay began, quoting 1 Timothy, “among whom I am foremost of all.”  (1.3)>>Trump's past, his sordid relationships , business dealings make him . Just what is a qualification to be a President ? Trump, and those who see that 80% of evangelicals voted for him,To social conservatives, particularly evangelicals, the Stormy Daniels saga presents an ethical quandary: The president they’ve tasked with defending Christianity against the “secular left” allegedly cheated on his third wife, just months after she gave birth, with an adult film star.Of course, Trump’s spiritual shortcomings (from accusations of rampant marital infidelity to alleged sexual assault to almost daily public insults of perceived enemies on Twitter) have been long known — and largely set aside by the conservative Christians who voted for him because they saw him as a more workable alternative than Hillary Clinton.(2.1)>>North Korea. US Vice President Mike Pence warned North Korea that it could end up like Libya if it fails to make a nuclear deal with Washington."There was some talk about the Libyan model last week, and you know, as the President made clear, this will only end like the Libyan model ended if Kim Jong Un doesn't make a deal," Pence said Monday.When it was noted that the comparison could be interpreted as a threat, Pence told Fox News: "Well, I think it's more of a fact."Previous comments, by President Donald Trump's national security adviser John Bolton, that the administration was looking at Libya as a potential example for North Korea to follow, provoked alarm in Pyongyang.   (2.2)>>Pence has other plans. Assuming Pence isn’t simply readying himself for Trump’s downfall, but taking steps hasten it, we should note that he won’t be well situated to make the most of his coup.
