While Clinton & the Convention were tearing it up and inspiring the crowd last night, Mike Pence was out on the campaign trail. In a town hall meeting he laid out just what he’d want to accomplish. Trump had supposedly offered John Kasich the role of “All Presidentin’ Work” since it stands to reason Pence will have far more power in a Trump Administration than any VP since Cheney...and we saw how that played out.

“I’m pro-life and I don’t apologize for it,” he said during a town hall meeting here. “We’ll see Roe vs. Wade consigned to the ash heap of history where it belongs.”
And he helpfully reminds us that several Supreme Court justice positions may open up, giving us a glimpse at what sort of court they would create: little Scalias.
“While we’re choosing a president for the next four years, this next president will make decisions that will impact our Supreme Court for the next 40,” he said. “… Go tell your neighbors and your friends, for the sake of the rule of law, for the sake of sanctity of life, for the sake of our 2nd Amendment, for the sake of all our other God-given liberties, we must insure the next president appointing justices to the Supreme Court is Donald Trump.”
Not much commentary should be necessary. It’s time once and for all to put a stop to this extremist fringe group parading around as a major political party. Pence is being genuine about what he wants accomplished, at the expense of every bit of progress forward that took decades to achieve.
