A lot of people have been talking about Mike Pence seeing Hamilton on Broadway.  First things first – how did our next vice president get tickets?  And did he pay?  ‘Cause that’s a lot of tickets for Mr. and Mrs. Pence, the Secret Service, and the guys who travel with him to electrocute…err, “convert” any gays they meet.  Far more amazing is that anyone took offense to Brandon Victor Dixon‘s speech (which was actually written by composer/lyricist Lin-Manuel Miranda).  Trump Tweeted that the cast was “rude” and “harassed” Pence, and he demanded an apology.  Did Trump even see the video of the speech?  It’s readily available online because Dixon told the audience to record it.  On Sunday’s Face the Nation, Pence said that he was not offended, adding “hats off to the cast and the extraordinary team of Hamilton.”  So, what is this really about?  Perhaps former Celebrity Apprentice contestant George Takei has stumbled on the truth: “I wonder if Pence went to Hamilton to take our focus off the Trump University fraud settlement.”  Things that make you go hmmmm.
