Is Mike up to the job ?

Mike Pence ‘not up to task’ of leading US coronavirus response, say experts

As an aspiring congressman, Mike Pence once claimed “smoking doesn’t kill”. As governor of the midwestern state of Indiana, he faced heavy criticism for his handling of the situation when the state experienced the worst HIV crisis in its history.

It’s a track record that meant Donald Trump’s appointment of Pence on Wednesday to lead the US response to the coronavirus was met with immediate outrage from health specialists, following days of criticism about the government’s handling of a virus that has spread to almost every continent across the globe.

He seems to hold some bizarre views on health issues.

He should call Brownie. Together, they will do a heck of a job.

He is the VP, and the question should be if Trump and his leadership at the CDC is up to the task and not the damn VP!

Pigpence is an ignorant, sex-obsessed bit of trash who can barely tie his own shoelaces. RW is right. This appointment is an insult to all Americans and an example of how low the orange whore is. Neither of them cares how many people's lives they risk because they don't care about the country at all.

He did such a good job as Governor of Indiana.....

He sure DID, ya dimwit. I've lived in Indiana for almost 10 years now and it's a great state to live in. Conservatives are easily the majority here and there's been NO sign of illegal immigration problems or Antifa miscreants in Valparaiso, where I live. There's very little crime to speak of, and I feel safe anywhere in town. Thanks to Republican and Conservative leadership.

75% of the male population in Indiana has been arrested and/or been to jail. Hell of a state.

Let's see a link for that, ya knucklehead. Valparaiso is almost crime free and it's a wonderfully safe place to live.

I'll find it. You can start with this graph:

So, incarceration in Indiana declined with Pence. OK

Hardly

Oh hell no.

He can't even be in the same room with the expert chosen to assist him.

I can see a political strategy in Trump naming Pence as the point man for the virus containment. If Pence fails, which seems likely, Trump can throw him under the bus and pick a more interesting running mate.
