With all the whacko nutjob democrats crawling around in public, it's essential that Vice President Pence have a heavily armored car for cover.Â* Get it?





He should take a heavy armored bicycle.

While I am a Republican and support Trump, I still think if there is a
no cars rule for the public, then the VP or anyone else should either
observe that rule or not go. Presidents and VP's are easy to replace.
Look at all those standing in line.


Gerry Ford used a horse drawn carriage.


Speaking of Gerald Ford, back in the 70s when I was young and handsome and still in high school, my girl friend and I stopped for fuel at (KGRR) Grand Rapids, MI.

President Ford and Air Force One (Boeing 707 IIRC) just happened to be there as well.

After fueling, I talked to the Secret Service Agent and got permission to taxi our Grumman AA-5 rental next to Air Force One and Secret Service Agent took our picture.

Obviously today you'd have to be pretty connected to taxi a private aircraft anywhere near Air Force One.
