Apocalyptic Gossip

     This morning on MSNBC anchorwoman Chris Jansing presented video of Vice President Pence in South Korea sitting one row in front of Kim Jong-Un's sister, Yo-jong, during the opening Olympic ceremonies.
     I present an offering of headlines about this epic social non-exchange between two people connected closely to powerful motherfuckers armed with nuclear weapons:

     New York Magazine: "Mike Pence Avoids Eye Contact with Kim Jong-Un's Sister..."
     ABC News: "Kim Jong-Un's sister arrives to Olympics with much fanfare..."
     CNN: "Pence, Kim Jong-Un's sister sat feet away from each other at Games..."
     Yahoo!: "All swagger and smiles [accompanied by a photo of her not smiling], Kim Jong-Un's mysterious sister gets her star turn..."
     USA Today: "Mike Pence doesn't speak with North Koreans, including Kim Jong-Un's sister..."
     South China Morning Post: "Kim Jong-un's baby sister: the Ivanka Trump of North Korea."
   
     The last one titillates with its implication that, in parallel fashion, Ivanka is Donald's daughter and sister, recalling Faye Dunaway in Chinatown proclaiming, "She's my daughter, she's my sister, she's my daughter, she's my sister..."
     Chris Jansing on MSNBC claimed that Pence looked "uncomfortable."  In fact, he looked like he always looks: serene, convinced he's going to Heaven, a bust made of human flesh.  Unlike with his "protest" at an Indianapolis Colts game, when he and his Secret Service entourage left the stadium right after the National Anthem was performed, supposedly because he was offended by a few NFL players taking a knee in solidarity with Black Lives Matter and Colin Kaepernick, Pence stuck this event out, his back to the menacing young woman sitting behind him.
     Since Yo-jong for a time a few years ago ran North Korea when her brother was ill, she's Mike Pence's political equivalent, so it's appropriate they were seated near each other, and it would've been appropriate for Pence to shake her hand and (gasp!) have a conversation with her in order to try to find common ground.  Why not?  Reagan was willing to meet with Gorbachev.  Kennedy met with Khrushchev.
     Pence's "discomfort" was calculated, just as his phony protest of NFL players taking a knee during the National Anthem was figured out in advance.  He and his boss, Trump, knew that some of the players would do it, but Pence, to prove a point, inconvenienced fans in the stadium with the usual overbearing security presence surrounding such "important" men, after having flown from California to Indiana to supposedly enjoy a football game he had no intention of watching in person, all of this costing taxpayers lots of money.
     The degree to which government officials will waste citizens' money knows no bounds.  If Pence truly was made uncomfortable by the nearby presence of Kim Jong-un's sister, then good.  I hope he had a shitty time sitting there during the ceremonies, which always last quite a while.  I saw footage of Pence at a U.S. airbase in Japan (didn't we beat them in a war 72 years ago? and we have military bases there still?) reassuring his well-hung military audience, flanked by warplanes, that "we'll honor our commitments and all options are on the table."
     Why would nuclear annihilation be a problem in the mind of a righteous Christian like Pence?
     Pence has a problem with women.  His anti-abortion views are extreme even for a fundamentalist Christian fuck from Indiana.  When Governor of Indiana he tried to make it a requirement that women pay for the cost of funerals for their aborted embryos and fetuses.  A man who believes that is actually next in line to the Presidency, and there are many liberals, Democrats, and even some Republicans by now who would like to see Trump impeached and effectively kicked out of office so that "a competent leader" like Mike Pence can assume command.  For the record, I am utterly opposed to a Pence Administration.
     Pence, married once to the same woman since 1985, has an aversion to being alone with any woman other than his wife.  From this, we can assume he's never had a one on one conversation with Melania Trump or Ivanka "the Yo-jong of America."
     He wouldn't want to be in a room alone with Kim Jong-un's sister for political reasons, but also because she's a woman.  Mike Pence apparently has the mentality, when it comes to women, of a thirteen year old.  He evidently doesn't trust himself; he may, as Democratic Presidential Candidate Jimmy Carter in 1976 once controversially put it, "...[look] on a lot of women with lust.  I've committed adultery in my heart many times."
     What's gross about this story, from a truth telling perspective, is the interpretation by news people that Pence was "uncomfortable."  It's an attempt to get us to sympathize with him, but how the fuck does anyone know what was in his mind?  His bland sociopathic face looked exactly the same as it has every time I've seen it.  If he shit in his underwear he'd have the same look as when he signed draconian anti-abortion legislation as Governor.  He has the personality of a Soviet politician circa 1950, a functionary in high office doing the bidding of others behind the scenes.  A steadier hand than Trump's for sure, which is why he must never become President.
     Chris Jansing of MSNBC tried to humanize Pence, characterizing him as "uncomfortable" but in reality, I think it's more likely he regarded the experience of sitting just "feet" away from Kim Jong-un's sister as an exercise in patience, a showing to the world of American contempt for North Korea, a country run by insect people who will be smashed, eventually.  Yo-jong is not only a high-ranking North Korean leader, she's a woman.  By his policies, we should realize that Mike Pence hates women.  The millions of women who will be killed in a potential war with North Korea mean nothing to Pence.  It's irresponsible for a journalist to characterize, without evidence and using "body language"-based opinions, Pence's thought process.  Maybe he was bored?  The opening ceremonies of the Olympics comprise one long fucking parade.
     Ironically, the South Korean leadership was willing to welcome and politely greet Yo-jong, just a few days after meeting with Donald Trump in the Oval Office, proving that the South Koreans are willing to do business and diplomacy with the two lunatic regimes most threatening to their own survival on Planet Earth.
