Honestly fuck both of them. Let's not pretend that pence has the average citizens interest in mind. He's looking out for himself only
I don't agree with Mike Pence on almost anything. I don't respect much about him other than his conduct during the insurrection. He refused to get whisked away in a vehicle to god knows where and stayed in the capitol where a mob wanted to hang him to certify the election. He had physical courage at the one time he needed to and that is the one thing he has done that deserves to be recognized. Otherwise fuck him.
Yeah but the enemy of my enemy may not be my friend but they can be useful to ally with against our shared enemy.
Pence is awful. But I'll admit, I read him wrong a decade ago. I thought he was a Christian dominionist first and likes American democracy and the constitution if he can have it as well. But when push came to shove he turned out to actually support American democracy more than Christian dominionism, a thing he definitely still believes in. He's not a good person, but he seems to not be a fascist actually, so to him I apologize for assuming him to be one based on his prior words, actions, and general vibes.
But, but, but, the enemy of my enemy is... Well, at least a useful tool..
If that were the case, he'd just get in line to kiss the ring
