Vice President Mike Pence will not quarantine himself despite two of his top aides testing positive for Covid-19, his office said.

Vice President Mike Pence will not quarantine himself despite four of his aides testing positive for Covid-19, his office said.

Pence is expected to hold a rally in Kinston, North Carolina later on Sunday. The battleground state is neck-and-neck with state polls on average showing Biden ahead by just over one percentage point. O'Malley said in a statement issued late on Saturday that Pence and second lady Karen Pence both tested negative and "remain in good health."

White House chief of staff Mark Meadows declined to say how many individuals connected to the vice president's office have tested positive when pressed by CNN's Jake Tapper on Sunday morning.

“While Vice President Pence is considered a close contact with Mr. Short, in consultation with the White House Medical Unit, the Vice President will maintain his schedule in accordance with the CDC guidelines for essential personnel,” O’Malley said.

Pence creeps me out.. that is all...

Dun worry Mr Corona will come for ya sooner or later

What about the distancing from other people part of the essential personnel part of the CDC statement?

So you’re saying he doesn’t have COVID-19, but he does have aides. Okay.

Of course...he don’t care...

Is anyone surprised at this point?

As stupid as stupid gets!

Ok and ........are you worried about our VP or is this another attack. Just stop

VP is only following in the footsteps of his leader....carelessly walking a thin rope

Good call chief

Horrible man!

Pence holding rally without mask, so selfish, infecting America, he supposed to protect America . Lying openly , about Bidan policy. America Bidan is not going to cut police funding, this VP is nut, lying, don’t listen to him, he and Trump done nothing four years.

Joe Biden won't come out of his basement and tell us why he sold our country and its citizens to Russia, China and Ukraine

Crunch time and desperation, what a mix!

Not surprising. This dope never wore a mask when it counted

Real stand up fella. Thanks for the leadership. LOL

A shining example of what not to do from the leader of our corona virus task force.

That is not Christian!

That is demented! He’s sick in the head and doesn’t care about anyone but himself, even the people that work with him are at risk because of his selfishness.

🤮

Lock him up.

Feel like there are different rules for citizens Vs White house; many citizens couldn’t even get a last glimpse of their loved ones before they died because of hospital rules but WH guys can do whatever they please!

I hope his wife is OK !

Like anywhere in the country right now, if you test negative you don’t have to quarantine.

Will Joe Biden plagiarise him?

I have no idea what ‘Christian Values’ this man possesses.

Pence and trump are more afraid of losing the election than putting people’s lives at risk. Priorities.

Kamala Harris did not quarantine and nobody’s saying $hit!

He is another idiot in the TRUMP Administration for not following CDC guidelines!

Course he won’t because that wld be the sensible thing to do and his boss doesnt do sensible

It is a do or die time for the Trump-Pence campaign.

Vote these anti-science monsters out!!

Why Mom doesn't have an imposter to walk around with like Trump

Yeah because he's probably patient zero.

This why we need to vote for Biden in this crazy he is as worse his dump

He is washed in Jesus’s blood... but will be happy to infect everyone else

Arresto domiciliario con él y con grillete😡

Mike “Dirt” Pence.

Same as biden 4 of his aids tested positive. ohhh I forgot he’s quarantined in the basement

This is why Cornoavirus is out of control. We have this Fucking Idiot in charge of Task Force. Fire immediately!

Could this be just part two of the stunt Donald Trump pulled couple of weeks ago. Soon we will hear Pence is positive and he goes to Walter Reed and he comes out stronger than before! They are playing games with American lives

this is absolutely pathetic..tells you what this administration thinks of their constituents

Listen! Most of the test are false positive anyway.

Simply just irresponsible

Did you here the chief of staff today they literally don't give 2 shita about covid19

He should be charged with endangering the public !!!!

Enjoy

JMO: Incompetent Biden will have no clue how to handle Covid, Jobs, Environment or the Economy. 47 yrs of doing nothing is enough proof 😱😱😱😱😡😡😡😡

225871 dead Americans are the result of the Trump administration.

Because of course he won’t.

VoteBlueToEndThisNightmare

God moves in a mysterious way. He will call them one by one and it's due time.

Then mr pants is just a perfect politician to run as the VP to the Orange Gorilla!

TRUMP 2020.! Super-spreader death cult.

He’s already tested negative

Good. Trump 2020. Biden can sit in his basement. People go to work.

That is as criminal as knowingly infecting someone with AIDS. Falls under the same section of the crime act.

On brand.

He's another dope, just like the orange-haired jackass!

So he’s ignoring the public health experts and scientists again, big surprise there.

What’s the point If we have 15 minute antigen test ? The more the public is educated the less any of these headlines make any sense !

AS LONG AS HE IS FEELING OK AND TESTING AND WEARING MASK TO PROTECT OTHERS AND WATCHES FOR FLU SIGNS THIS IS WISE WISDOM ON HIS PART HE CAN ALSOTALE SAME MEDS AS PRESIDENT IF HEEDED WITHOUT HOSPITAL

BidenHarris2020Landslide Biden BidenHarris2020

Obviously he and mother have been infected before. Someone ask the question. Please

Example a billion and something as to why these guys are unfit to lead this nation. How could be EVER trust them to protect America and get past this pandemic, when they can’t even keep it from running rampant in their own inner circles. America has become a laughingstock.

Out of 193 countries in this world, we are so lucky that we have the only leader that’s right about the virus. 🤣🤣🤣🤣 vote him out and his cult out.

As the head of the coronavirus task force Mikey is dedicated to seeing that a maximum number of people get the virus.

I'm sure he's being tested frequently. Calm down Rona Gestapo.

So he is doing exactly what Kamala Harris did when her aides tested positive

Of course he won't. He'll just pray that he won't get Coronavirus.

Selfish jerk.

The USA is a failed state

He too wants to participate in the super spreader bonanza. Why should Trump get all the glory.

Criminal behavior... now GOP ask who are the criminals?

Because it’s another WH HOAX !

Of course Not... ignorance

Of course Pence won't, that would be the logical thing to do. But hey, we are dealing with some really stupid people. This WH is nothing more than an infection spreading throughout the country. It's desperately in need of a cleansing.

There'll be plenty of time for quarantine after next Tues., hopefully. Just stay outta' Indiana....

Good for Pence! This quarantine nonsense is bullshit!

Kamala hit the campaign trail after finding out and aide tested positive. What’s the difference? Why the different headline for Pence?

🤞

The COVIDIAN CULT has all the hallmarks of totalitarianism. Mass conformity to a psychotic official narrative.

Schmuck

RIP: rot in hell

BidenHarris2020Landslide

BidenHarrisLandslide

unfit. Vote him out.

I consulted with Mother and she said that there's no such thing as coronavirus. So I shall listen to Mother.

Stupid is as stupid behaves.

He is as criminal as his boss

Mother says they’ll be ok. “Have Vick’s Vapor Rub will travel.”

We are used to this unbearable selfishness from gop.

And he is the leader for the covid task force? The covid is kicking their asses left and right...they should go home and left another administration take charge.

Pleasing your boss and act as a restless follower means you hate America and its people. Quarantining means keep America healthy not keep America sick🤡

He's the co-leader of the Death Cult. What a horrible, evil man.

Unreal.

The problem with 'Christians.' Evangelicals TrumpVirus

This article doesn't give enough info to know whether VP Pence needs to quarantine. The headline leads people to believe he is reckless but was he in close contact with these specific aides? When was the last time? If continuing to test negative, why would he quarantine?

When does this herd immunity concept become effective for the administration?

. What in Trump's 74-year record would a parent want their child or any child to study, learn, and follow in order to have a value-filled content life. If the President is not a model for the youth of the USA and the world in any way he cannot be the leader of the free world.

Pence: Mother says I have to play outside, cant quarantine.

Dick

This guy should be arrested immediately and or ordered to stay home

Is this selfishness or stupidity?

This behavior is endangering others. I am appalled. This is not how a Christian man behaves.

People saying he shouldn’t have to quarantine if he’s testing negative don’t understand the false negative rate of the rapid test. The PCR test which is more accurate takes at least 2 days. So he’s still putting everyone he comes near at risk.

So?

Nor should he. It’s just another flu that has a 99.6% recovery rate. It’s time to grow the fuck up here.

Sad and laughable. Doesn’t want to upset the dear leader, so screw the rest of us.

Administration is proving that herd immunity will be new strategy. How many people died (none)?

Superhuman

What a jackass

If he’s negative no need to quarantine

This is all so outrageous...

I don't understand why people say that this administration fails in everything, they are very skilled superspreading the virus

Why not kill a few more people?

Vice pussy grabber

Mistake.

He tested negative, CNBC will never mention those facts

N95 OR LEVEL3 MASKS we use on AIRBORNE cases in the Hospital

VoteHimOut2020

THE. GOP. DOES. NOT. CARE. Vote for them at your peril.

😆 😆 😆

Love how you steer this headline. FFS. If someone can get tested 8x a day do they really need to quarantine? You make it sound as partisan as possible and quite honestly it is disgusting.

Super Spreader !

We'll make sure he quarantines for life after Jan 20th.

Because he’s an idiot...is the rest of this headline

Mother said it was a hoax.

What is wrong with this administration? This is the leader of the Covid task force! This administration has given up on protecting us!

Pandemic Pence! Back at!eads one to believe he wants to spread it and set a bad example

Super Spreader Junior

Can this lying administration be any more Orwellian?

The true character of a person is revealed in the face of a dilemma. Unfortunately, rules only apply to them when favorable, so you will only see actions from the old saying; Do as I say, not as I do, as they will find a loophole to sidestep the rules when not favorable. VOTE

CDCgov is this correct protocol?

Trumps great winning covid plan

Shocker
