What a spineless sycophant.
Mike Pence Was Asked If America is Morally Superior to Russia. He Wouldn't Give a Yes or No Answer
Vice President Mike Pence wouldn't say America is morally superior to Russia during an interview with Face the Nation.
When repeatedly asked by moderator John Dickerson about America's moral superiority to Russia, Pence talked about American ideals instead.
"I believe that the ideals that America has stood for throughout our history represent the highest ideals of humankind," he said.
"Shouldn't we able able to just say 'yes' to that question though?" Dickerson asked.
"I think it's without question," Pence responded.
"That America is morally superior to Russia," Dickerson said.
"That American ideas are superior to countries all across the world," Pence said.

It is painful many times to watch Pence tip-toe around topics.
I think he would better serve himself and the public if he did NOT do this.

In contrast to Pence's response -------
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell told CNN's Jake Tapper on "State of the Union" Sunday that he "obviously" doesn't see Russia and Putin the same way Trump does."Putin's a former KGB agent.
He's a thug. He was not elected in a way most people would consider a credible election. The Russians annexed Crimea, invaded Ukraine and mess around in our elections," McConnell said.
"I don't think there's any equivalency between the way the Russians conduct themselves and the way the United States does," he said.
