Well, per Woodward's book, it was actually Dan Quayle that saved democracy that one time.

Oh, I wasn't speaking in my voice there, I don't have illusions about Pence's inviolable honor, I'm just guessing that the money behind a doomed Pence run is a clean-up operation as far as the GOP brand is concerned.

He told me to light one up and follow it with a couple of lines. I'd trade in Jesuses if he went that low rent on me.

if you’re gonna say there is absolutely zero chance Mike Pence ends up back in the White House, you better turn around three times, chant a spell, knock on wood, and bury something at midnight on the night of the full moon. Because one thing that could happen is Trump could die between now and 2024, and then all Pence has to do is say that on his deathbed Trump told him to Carry On.

If Trump endorsed Pence tomorrow, the people who wanted to lynch him would vote for him 100%. It's not as if they vote on issues, policies, or platform.
