Four months ago today, I called Vice-President Mike Pence "a putz".
At that time, Pence was fallaciously claiming the Trump Administration was flattening the curve despite 40,000 new cases a day - a figure we've now managed to recently double. Pence also refused to wear a mask (as he hadn't while visiting the Mayo Clinic in April) or encourage others to do so. And for good measure he was also defending President Trump's rallies including the one in Tulsa which killed Herman Cain.
In view of these facts, it does not surprise me that five people in Pence's orbit including his chief of staff and body man have tested positive for COVID-19. Nor does it surprise me that Pence refuses to quarantine despite CDC policy and is appearing at political rallies on behalf of Trump. How long will it be before Pence is diagnosed with COVID-19? If he is will he still ignore CDC guidelines?
Regardless of the answers to the two aforementioned questions I can reaffirm my view that Pence is still a putz.
