“Whatever Mike Pence’s political differences are with us,” she said, “I think he’s the only grown-up in the room.”
No, Mike Pence is one of the biggest stooges in the room and is therefore being baited. Mike Pence has a history of condemning the practice of making sure teenagers know how to get and use condoms in order to prevent the spread of STDs, while also trying to downplay the harm of smoking cigarettes, of expressing actual homophobia while voting against efforts to prevent gay rape in prison.
If anything, Pence serves as a bit of a shield for Trump when it comes to the risk of assassination by an extremist leftist citizen, since his death would mean that Pence assumes the presidency.
If they are able to bait Pence into making a statement about pizzagate or pedogate, then they can then attack the investigation vicariously through Pence using his history, a potentially effective red herring approach.
Their assessment of him as "the only grown-up in the room" despite them being leftists and likely knowing his history, is the biggest giveaway.
I would be more worried about them using a date rape type of drug on him than anything. Get him in a compromising situation and film/photograph or something. I do not trust him or any body getting into their environment without special provisions, and I do not mean Secret Service. They are simply not adequate security.
