[zentrum]

20. Well said!

[BobTheSubgenius]

34. Except that there is no bread,

and they are the circus.

[Walleye]

2. How much of a kickback is trump getting from the resort in Vail?

[hlthe2b]

5. Trump is not popular outside RW fundy areas of CO Springs, the plains, and some of western slope

and the ski resorts have suffered greatly because of Trump's COVID denial/nonmanagement. So, the only thing he'd be likely to get from the monied of Vail, Aspen, and Telluride is a bottle of warm piss.

[Walleye]

8. Cool. Is Prince showing a little independence?

[Cirque du So-What]

3. Don't compound-fracture a femur or kiss a tree, Dense

That would be horrible.

[niyad]

6. Sonny Bono came to mind when I saw the headline.

[Cirque du So-What]

7. Yeah, me too

It’s the reason I worded my post that way. Now I’m hoping karma is tricked by my clever denial.

[KarenS]

9. yikes,,,, I thought of Sonny Bono too,,,,,

I do not like how dark I have become.

[Aviation Pro]

16. Wishing you don't fall into a tree hole

and never be found, Superfly.

[gohuskies]

4. Rotten bastard spending resources needed to fight covid

Jan 20th cannot come to soon for me

[waddirum]

36. He got his shot

Eff everyone else

[blueinredohio]

10. 50 secret service for two people? WOW!

[Botany]

11. "Ski instructors at Beaver Creek Resort were booked for the Pence ... "

The man is 60 if he can't ski by now then he will never ski. Although I would love to have the
job as Mike's ski instructor.

Come on Mr. Vice President let's learn about back country skiing and tree wells.



How much is this costing and still they can't sign a relief bill? A lunch in Vail can be $100 easy.

24 days, 1 hour, 39 minutes, and 59 seconds but who is counting?

[Hotler]

12. If he skis as dorky as he runs...... nt.

[central scrutinizer]

13. $921/night at Grand Hyatt

This little junket could run to eight figures.

[Historic NY]

14. 50 agents to protect the reader of the electoral college results.

Doesn't anyone think this is a lot of people that would have enjoyed being home with their families. The only people pissed at him is Trump and #MAGA

[Golden Raisin]

15. First things first.

While the Nation is experiencing multiple devastating crises.

[JDC]

17. He will be doing nothing but vacationing on the People's dime for the next 3+ weeks

We can count on it.

[SharonClark]

19. He and mother are touring Europe after the EC vote.

[Traildogbob]

18. Deficit

And right on schedule as Biden and Dems take over, Lindsay Graham is bellowing about spending, playing the hits about entitlements. How much is trumps golf vacation and Pence ski weekend gonna draw from our entitlement stash. Fuck these shit stains, death, starvation, no military pay, and remember Graham screaming months ago on Covid relief second round checks, “Over my dead body will he give another dime”. Shame he can’t be accommodated. He fucking gives a shit less if we die, while taking our taxes for salary and golfing with Trump. Fuck you South Carolina.

[young_at_heart]

21. If Obama had done this......24/7 complaints

It would have been a major scandal!

[marble falls]

22. So Pence got his $2,000 stimulous check.

[usaf-vet]

23. WAIT HE IS LEARNING TO SKI? On the taxpayer's dollars. January 20th can't come quick enough!

The $2000.00 was spent before the airlift plane started down the runway.

[marble falls]

31. It's such a temptation to have a wayward 'wish'. I hope he at least has some trouble sleeping.

[turbinetree]

24. So did he read that section in the bible of the rapture about the money changers in the square

or did he skip that section to go skiing..................

[Loki Liesmith]

25. Sounds like fun

[Takket]

26. and there are people on DU hoping he's going to rally the cabinet for the 25th LOL

Yeah.... look how deeply concerned he is right now about drumpf and the country........

[Sancho]

27. Here you go...

[Buckeyeblue]

28. These perks are coming to a quick end

Does the VP get any perks when their term is up?

[58Sunliner]

29. Disgusting little fuck. Grifting on our dime while he can.

[DallasNE]

30. What Is A Little More Corruption

Pence normally has probably about 4 Secret Service agents assigned. The head of the Secret Service needs to go for approving this operation. Ski instructors should be available for those who want to pay out of their own pocket but not on the governments dime. More in your face corruption.

[KentuckyWoman]

32. The inner visual of Pence on skis is funny as hell.

If you stuck a metal pole up a mannequin with no bendable joints, bolted that to skis and shoved it downhill and filmed in slowmo...

[lame54]

33. "Take me to the whitest place you can think of."

[waddirum]

37. Said the fly

[BobTheSubgenius]

35. It's all OK.

He has a note from his Mother.

Damn it, but the whole 30-odd years of this administration has been half horror show and half pathetic. Often, like now, lots of both.

[Catherine Vincent]

38. 50 SS agents booked rooms

Maybe Pence and his wife wanted one last fling with all the attention of importance they get from them before they leave DC for good.

[mtnsnake]

39. I hope Douglas jumps right out in front of him

Douglas Fir that is. Or better yet a 15' boulder.
