Within moments of Trump’s press conference, his running mate, Indiana Gov. Mike Pence (R), released a statement distancing himself from the nominee’s words. “If it is Russia and they are interfering in our elections, I can assure you both parties and the United States government will ensure there are serious consequences,” Pence said.

2. And if it is the Republicans or trump himself, then what Mike?

Potemkin, a pretentiously showy or imposing façade intended to mask or divert attention from an embarrassing or shabby fact or condition.

Origin: after Prince Potëmkin, who allegedly had villages of cardboard constructed for Catherine II's visit to the Ukraine and the Crimea in 1787.

3. Pence takes two steps to the left to distance himself from the idiot. Very appropriate response
