This is nuts. I can’t believe, for one minute, that MLK would support the foreign invasion of criminals who want to usurp,at will, all he fought so hard for. These foreign invaders have every right to seek citizenship, but want to steal democracy rather than work for it.

LEX18News BET and BLM doesn’t honor MLK either. But let’s not talk about facts and logic.

Pitiful Pence!

VP reminds me of that saying— ‘Even the Devil can quote scripture to suit his purpose’.

All you need to know is watch him read “his favorite MLK quote”. Phony sincerity

I haven’t seen anyone slam him till I read this....sounds like NBC is slamming him.

LEX18News No surprise is it? He's a Republican so EVERYTHING is scrutinized! I am a registered Democrat with common sense so I see the slant in the MSM

I thought Mike Pence had better sense than to liken his boss to MLK. This is sycophancy at its worse. I almost think the said boss put him up to this because this sounds like something self-promoting said boss would say about himself.

A couple of left wing loons don’t like what he said so it becomes news?

Keep his name out your mouth.

Slammed by libs. Who cares?

he is appalling and pathetic he and trump well use anything or anybody

Trump made him look like a bigger ass than what he is by not participating in any of MLK services today

No President in history has done more to purposefully divide our nation. Need proof? Watch any one of his rallies. They are filled with hate towards other Americans.

Slammed to the ground? 🤞🏼

Pence wins this if he advocates for changing the proposal to Permanent, protection of our Dreamers. Act now democrats to support Permanent protection!

The VP is out of touch about MLK remarks. The promised land is the world for all humanity. Not border wall is the solution today.

Neither he nor tRump plan any tribute to the Reverend today, which is totally unpatriotic.

A riot is the language of the unheard. Remember that if a mob tears you limb from limb for being a racist shitbird.

Except Pence who can kiss the ass of Trump, like this?

Idiot

Is pence spending MLK day in Mississippi?

MLK would not have never stood for a wall. Pence is a fool. I seriously doubt Pence ever read anything about the man. Lets see what Trump has to say today!

That’s low and opportunistic. Doesn’t honor the legacy of Dr. MLK

I don't think the Right Wing Conspiracy Theorists realize that Mike Pence is the ACTUAL Lizard Man... 😅😂🤣🐍

A republican slammed for quoting a republican. Why was he slammed, because of the color of his skin. And Democrats still don't see how psychotic they've become? WalkAwayFromDemocrats

Who cares!

The time for talking and distractions and patience is over. The time is here to ImpeachTrump. realDonaldTrump has shown himself to be a criminal thug controlled as a Russian asset by Putin. Congress must act NOW

I’m he same people used the Bible verse used to justify slavery. Psalm 13. Religion and especially religious politicians aren’t smart enough or safe to elect! Religion is at the root of all the bad stuff. Dig deep enough & religion is to blame. FFRF

Mr. Devil 👿 in Devils Clothing tryin to Quote Dr. King now that’s a True Crime....

Pence is a true idiot VP. Smiles like he is always thinking how to sneakily jump into the presidency it’s what he wants in the end he is like a smiling rat

Wait... What?!?!? 😂😂😂

Trump has zero events scheduled to honor MLK.

'Pence slammed for saying...' NBC is a horrible news outlet and most of the American people understand that you a garbage network.

He had to be ashamed of his self, just like the president said that Aretha Franklin works for him. Between the realDonaldTrump & VP Mike Pence they out to be ashamed of there selfs overall just trying to use that just to get a wall.

He is a disgrace, just as realDonaldTrump is!

Another stupid move Mikey.
