Setting aside Russian collusion and Putin being a puppet master, there is someone running the executive branch in America and its not 45. He is largely ignorant of policy matters and details. He has no knowledge of government processes, procedures or duties required of the executive office. He certainly has no knowledge of the people he has appointed to various agencies and judgeships across the country. Hes basically there for the photo ops and to give speeches to adoring audiences.
So, who is running the government, or at least the executive branch? Pence.
Every single appointee and every single policy position has Pences fingerprints on it. All of them are hard right, Christo-fascist in nature which is deep in his wheelhouse. Also, 45 said last year, in reference to Kasich I believe, that he wanted his VP to run the show while he devoted himself to his bullshit MAGA public relations campaign.
Do you agree that Pence is the man behind the curtain of this presidency? Or is someone else making all of the decisions?
