Mike Pence was fist-bumping the crowd at the Republican National Convention – the only 5 scathing reactions you need
The Republican National Convention ended on Wednesday with more factually questionable speeches, including one from the President himself.
Unlike the Democrats’ online event, Republicans were present and there wasn’t a mask in sight.

The Vice President, Mike Pence, went even further down the idiocy path by fistbumping many of the crowd – but it’s not shaking hands so that’s fine, right?

It seems there may be a lot of goldfish DNA in the Republican Party, if this is an example of how well their memories work.
Apparently they have all forgotten what happened to Herman Cain at the Tulsa Rally 🤦🏻♀️
But hey, that was a whole 27 days ago so I’m sure it will be fine. https://t.co/jE4zJ2fpW8— California for Biden 2020 (@CaliforniaBeto) August 27, 2020
