Is VP Mike Pence Compromised By Russia Too

Despite all the controversy swirling around various Trump campaign members and their links to Russia, Vice President Mike Pence’s Russian connection should not be over-looked.

When former Trump campaign chairman, Paul Manafort’s Russian ties were discovered by the media he immediately resigned. Once again the Trump campaign is making headlines as more news about Paul Manafort and various members of the Trump administration emerge and show clear links to Russia.

Where does Mike Pence come into play? Well, according to New York Post, Donald Trump had plans to ask New Jersey Governor Chris Christie to run as his vice president but ended up asking Indiana Governor Mike Pence, after Paul Manafort insisted he give him further consideration.

With the focus being brought back to the Trump campaign/Russian connection, and the FBI revealing evidence that links Trump’s associates, past and present, to the Russian government it’s time to remember that the man at the middle of it all, Paul Manafort, hand picked Mike Pence to be Vice President. The next in line, should anything happen to the volatile president of the United States, was planted there by a man who has undeniably suspicious Russian ties.

Although, for the most part, Mike Pence has manage to stay out of the spotlight for some of the more recent negative news where Trump is concerned, his role should be looked at closer.

Pence has largely managed to avoid getting his name pulled into the Russian scandals, but it appears we need to rethink that.

We are learning more details each day about the Trump administration’s apparent connections to the Russian government and Russian special interests.

Americans need to wake up and pay attention to these serious allegations.
