No one prods him about why Mike Pence isn’t his VP.
Republicans who have known Mike Pence can’t and won’t acknowledge him as a man of distinct character.
They would throw their own mother’s under the bus to make trump happy!

we made fun of Pence for 4 years. Yeah, there was a lot about him to make fun of, but when the chips were down, he stood up for the Constitution...and paid the price, very nearly the ultimate one. So maybe he wasn't the best guy in the world, but I'd sure as hell rather have him for president than the asshole we have now!

Well, I guess asshole isn't the right word for the orange slime, considering what I've always considered to be my perfect insult..."I'd call you a perfect asshole except for two things---nobody's perfect, and assholes serve a useful function." OTOH, he does serve a useful function, perhaps---being insulted.
