Pence Met With Stony Silence At International Meeting After Delivering “Greetings From President Trump”

Talking Points Memo reports:

Vice President Mike Pence received absolute silence from an audience at the Munich Security Conference when he said that President Donald Trump had passed along his greetings. “I bring greetings from the 45th President of the United States of America, President Donald Trump,” Pence said. He paused for several seconds to allow for applause but the crowd remained quiet after the announcement.

Wow! That’s great. He paused on purpose waiting for the applause…and nothing came. That’s fantastic. And it shows how far our standing in the world has fallen. We can’t be rid of these criminals fast enough.
