Mike Pence is spewing lie after lie on the "Today Show."

I'll give Savannah Guthrie some props for attempting to call him out, but he's overwhelming her with the bullshit. I guess that's how it's going to be from here on out? Spout so many lies they can't keep up?

Mike Pence is a more vile, dangerous shitbag than is Trump.

There is no basis for a president trump delegating his constitutional duties, is there?

And, for once, Guthrie was actually trying to point that out. But, he was filibustering her. It's kind of hard to smash down their lies when they keep talking over you. I think the only thing that might stop this kind of shit is to cut their microphones, but that would lead to other problems. That being said, Hillary has dealt with these sorts of tactics for more than 30 years. And, she's smarter than they are. I have little doubt she'll figure this out.
