But, it wasn't the only time Trump went against his views but majority of times he shut up, fir good of party. As did repubs who supported trump

The inconsistency and hypocrisy of someone like Pence serving with someone like Trump is inarguable.
Pence could have declined at the outset.

The entire Trump episode is a strange world...
Trump is a highly entitled 14 year old bully that never grew out of it.
He has walked away from debt leaving lots of people unpaid and hurt
He has proven to be a serial liar.
He is a proud serial philanderer who was caught on tape bragging about his extramarital escapades a week before his election
His most famous dalliance is with a porn star and it is still in the news.

YET....

He was the champion of the Christian Right and held prayer meetings at the White house.

Personally, I think that he is no more of a Christian than me. But in his plan for the presidency the Christian-right was a piece that could not be missing.

BUT...Trump was a disrupter (useful A$$ho) and Pence saw an opportunity that might achieve some of his goals and the goals of people who endorsed him, and there was no other avenue. IMO he made a pragmatic decision and threw-in with Trump. We live in a twisted, factionalized and fragmented society. A view of that and Pence is in the eye of the beer holder.

On a brighter note DiSantis is "Trump with a brain."
And none of the porn star, Billy-bus baggage comes in the deal.
