Mike Pence Calls on Republicans to Block Trump Nominee (RFK)

Former President Mike Pence is urging Senate Republicans to block Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s nomination as the Health and Human Services (HHS) secretary.
President-elect Donald Trump, Pence's former running mate, announced Kennedy's nomination on Thursday, a decision that has raised concerns from public health experts. Kennedy, a former 2024 presidential candidate who went on to back Trump's campaign, has been incredibly critical of vaccinations, including suggesting that childhood vaccines are linked to autism diagnosis.
Pence, however, took a different issue with Kennedy's appointment, saying in a statement Friday that making Kennedy the HHS secretary would be "an abrupt departure from the pro-life record" of Trump's first administration.
"The Trump-Pence administration was unapologetically pro-life for our four years in office," Pence said, according to a statement published by his Advancing American Freedom PAC.
"I believe the nomination of RFK Jr. to serve as Secretary of HHS is an abrupt department from the pro-life record of our administration and should be deeply concerning to millions of Pro-Life Americans who have supported the Republican Party and our nominees for decades," Pence added.

I am beginning to think Pence just isn’t very smart. And he’s a backstabber (which is even worse than being stupid).

Pence also screwed Gen. Flynn on the second day in Trump’s 2016 White House by claiming some nonsense that the Dems ate up about Flynn lying about meeting with the Russian Ambassador. A terrible pick for VP or any other office.

Pence turning into such a loser over the decades has been terrible to watch. Early on Rush loved the guy.

He’s a half a fruit.
Ever since I heard him say “Heavens, no” in response to that incident in his state, I thought he sounded like a little (rhymes with witch)
I was shocked when he was picked for VP.

What is going on with Pence?
Has he gotten possessed by demons or something?
