- Yes. The why isn’t what you are implying. The SS mission is principal protection. Pence gets in the car, - Will Hunting 🍔🍟🍔🍹🍷 Jun 13, 15:15 21

  - Pence's comments make it sound like they were more interested in keeping him from certifying than in keeping him safe. - TWuG Jun 13, 15:29 2
    - Keep in mind Pence's family was with him. -- nm - loosilu Jun 13, 15:47
