I don’t see a thread on Pence’s complicity in the crime everyone’s talking about. And the only mention of Pence in this thread is a flippant joke. Yet Pence appears to be guilty of a felony in the same matter.

Think of it: _ **The Vice President of the United States is almost obviously guilty of a high crime or treason and that news is so ho-hum in today’s topsy-turvy White House it hardly attracts mention.** _

I say _almost_ obviously guilty. The Vice President’s defense, apparently [is that, when making a special trip as the envoy to follow-up a telephone call between two government chiefs](https://youtu.be/LP5NeI5gWzs?t=360) he was unaware of the contents of the call he was following up despite that he’d been briefed on it verbally, had presumably read a transcript of the call, and his top aide had listened in on the call in the first place!

That’s right! _ **Pence’s only defense against a charge of criminal corruption will be that he is stupider than a cockroach.** _
