Holy Crap! Is Mike Pence Living In A Parallel Universe? (VIDEO)

You probably recognize a few of these well known Trump quotes, but take a look at them again.

What a stiff, what a stiff, Lindsey Graham. By the way he has registered zero in the polls. A total lightweight. In the private sector, he couldn’t get a job. Believe me. Couldn’t get a job.”

Look at that face! Would anyone vote for that? Can you imagine that, the face of our next president?!”

“He got nothing passed, and now, all he is is a guy who will go down and stand a filibuster for a day or two. And all the other senators will look: ‘When’s he getting off the floor, Jim? The guy’s a pain in the ass.'”

There are plenty more, of course. “Crooked Hillary” and “Lyin’ Ted.”

None of these ugly words bothered Mike Pence (R-In), though. He was happy to step in and become Donald Trump’s Vice Presidential running mate. No problem!

Its a funny thing, though. Pence has a much more sensitive soul if the critical words are being spoken by a Democrat.

The V.P.wannabe told conservative radio host Hugh Hewitt that he was really bothered by the nasty language used by President Obama in his speech at the DNC.

He said that it was “unfortunate” that the President chose to use mean words when talking about his boss, Donald Trump. He told the radio host that there is absolutely “no place” in public life for “name calling.”

Gee. How upright and sincere. Gosh.

What were the terrible nasty names that the President called poor Donald? Did he call Trump a foul mouthed, ignorant buffoon? Nope. Did he reference his physical similarity to a Cheeto? Nope again.

This is what he said:

“Anyone who threatens our values, whether fascists or communists or jihadists or homegrown demagogues, will always fail in the end.”

Um. Yeah. He used the word “demagogue” but he never even said a name. You kind of had to read between the lines to know that he was shaking a figurative finger at Trump.

Holy God. These people are seriously living in a parallel universe, where up is down and hot is cold. Trump is being honest and true when he makes fun of disabled people and questions the President’s nationality. But the President is “name calling” when he refers to demagogues in general.

I don’t know for sure what the radio host did when he heard Pence’s comments, but I would have laughed so hard I’d have busted a rib.
