Analysis: The only people with a job worse than the vice president’s are the reporters who cover him
The vice presidency demands a sublimation of ego so complete that the heart rates of some veeps decline to the point that they begin to resemble the residents of Statuary Hall. Mike Pence achieved the status of human mannequin within days of joining Donald Trump’s presidential campaign ticket. He projects absolute subservience to his master by sitting or standing as still as a lizard when in his presence.
Two years into the Trump administration, Pence rarely speaks unless spoken to—or unless activated by his master to give “America First” speeches in foreign cities Trump wants to avoid., Trump has most recently retooled Pence into his overseas surrogate, assigning him the impossible job of selling his Iranian policy to European allies and waving the American flag down Venezuela way, despite his scant foreign policy experience. Pence works on a short tether.
