Vice President and right-hand man to Donald Trump, Mike Pence, has a tendency to sort of fly under the radar. He keeps relatively quiet these days, only partaking in things that “mother” dearest has given him permission for and keeping his lips thoroughly moisturized in the event that Trump’s ass cheeks are in need of kissing — which, let’s face it, is often.
But don’t for a second let Pence’s facade of timidness fool you into thinking he’s a cent less corrupt than the rest of them.
Yesterday, Dr. Rob Davidson, an emergency room doctor, posted a video to his Twitter account that captured a recent run-in he had with the veep and it proves that Mike Pence is every bit as big a piece of shit as his boss is.
Speaking to Pence at the Drake Diner in Des Moines, Iowa, Dr. Davidson confronted him over the Trump administration’s plan to gut America’s Medicaid/Medicare system and strip healthcare away from millions of Americans.

And he wasted absolutely no time in getting to the point.
After some very quick greetings, Dr. Davidson explained to Pence, “I’m an emergency doctor and I’m worried about the plans they talked about last week of maybe cutting Medicare and then the rollout today of cutting Medicaid. I work in one of the poorest counties in Michigan and my patients depend on expanded Medicaid. So how is that going to affect my patients?”
Pence responded with what can only be described as a look of complete “oh fuck” and a very long, drawn-out “uuuhhhhh” before acting as though he had no clue what Davidson was talking about.
The ER doctor wasn’t about to let Pence get away with the ignorant card though, and effectively explained the VP’s own administration’s healthcare rollback threats to him.
Pence fumbled over himself, attempted to blame a few things on Obama, and all-around dodged the question pretty thoroughly. But Davidson refused to back down.
The Michigan emergency room doctor cut to the quick and told Pence that he was putting the lives of his patients at risk every day as a result of these policies. However, Pence being the massive shitbag that he is, simply continued to act as though he didn’t understand.
Leading us to believe that one of two things is happening here — either Mike Pence truly is as stupid and ignorant as he’s portraying with Dr. Davidson, or he’s as corrupt and crooked as his boss is and didn’t care to answer the question because he simply doesn’t care about basic human life.
Frankly, I’m leaning towards the latter.

1/2 I just ran into @VP Mike Pence at the Drake Diner in Des Moines. I confronted him about his damaging health care cuts because for me it’s not about politics, it’s about saving lives.#DrakeUniversity #IowaCaucus #TrumpRallyIA #MedTwitter pic.twitter.com/LuXQcl9GVn

2/2 When I told him he is putting my patients’ lives at risk, @VP deflected and denied knowledge of the policy. He either doesn’t understand, or doesn’t care about the impact of this administrations’ policies on patients everywhere. pic.twitter.com/HcE1XYfUTj
