Trump put a water bottle on the floor and people are weirded out by what Mike Pence did next
Just an everyday moment in the life of the Donald Trump administration. And yet there was something about this clip, just a few seconds long, that people found fascinating.
I am laughing so goddamn hard at this video of Trump inexplicably putting his water bottle on the floor, and Pence immediately doing the same for no reason whatsoever. pic.twitter.com/qEFPzKClYj

Anything Donald Trump can do, Mike Pence can do, er, well, exactly the same.
It’s not the first time this sort of thing has happened. This is like a mirror image, but with different (not better) hair.
Here’s what people made of it online.

This is completely, insanely, and psychologically disturbing.

Especially bizarre since it does not appear that Trump commanded, "Simon says"…

In a fabulous take down of Pence, someone called it "slobbering servility". I would tend to agree.

My question is, why does melania look like she’s going on safari?

Her "go bag" is under the table. She can disappear on a moment's notice for weeks on end. She'll be on safari or perhaps sabbatical….

Let’s hope Pence drinks water from the bottle the same way as Trump.
