Pence just tweeted a copy and paste campaign ad where he referred to Individual 1 as “my father”. [Mike Pence Calls Donald Trump 'My Father' In Facebook Campaign Ad | HuffPost Latest News](https://www.huffpost.com/entry/mike-pence-donald-trump-my-father-campaign-ad_n_5f005e73c5b6acab2850e232)? ---

Pence has zero dignity. He’s a walking doormat. ---

I’m picturing him handing his overcoat to someone and throwing himself over the puddle Trump is about to step in. ---

The main difference between Pence and Trump is that the one believes he works for God, and the other believes he is God. ---

That’s just a botched copy/paste effort; I find the wording in the original mail much more cringeworthy—‘we were really disappointed to see that you neglected to help us reach our End-of-Quarter goal’. And then, ‘we won’t extend your match offer again, [name]’. Nice mixture of trying to guilt, shame, and strong-arm people into contributing. What’s next, mailing horse’s heads to those who fail to contribute? ---

The far more absurd thing is to believe that Trump is matching contributions at 500%. The man who was prohibited from even having a charity is going to honor an offer to match campaign contributions to his own campaign, with is own money? #OrangeLyingAssClown, please.
