The only thing in Pence's favor as far as I'm concerned is I trust him slightly more than that other guy with the nuclear codes.

And, keep in mind, he believes that a LITERAL Armageddon will usher Jesus' return to earth.

To me, that's even more scary that Trump's recklessness.

But, both scare me.

Which is worse...
Being boiled in oil or burned at the stake? Either way you're dead.

I'm honestly torn. They're both toxic snakes...
Pence is more controlled and can appear 'sane' but he's a more sneaky self-righteous nut.
Trump scares me too but Trump's out of control in your face tweets, etc actually work for us in a way too.

Who's worse? The ignorant, mad incompetent? Or the theocrat?

I cannot take a stand on this issue. Drumpf may be utterly insane, but Pence wants to turn the USA into fucking Jesusland. He'd appoint Ken Ham* as Secy of Education.

*Ken Ham, of Answers in Genesis fame. That's right. All answers come from the Holy Bible, according to Ham, and our VEEP Mr. Pence.

Pence is fake, has a broken moral compass, and is sanctimonious.
