President Trump's initial review of the debate is in, and he's giving Vice President Mike Pence two thumbs up.
"Mike Pence is doing GREAT!" he tweeted. "She is a gaffe machine." It is presumed that "she" is the Democratic vice presidential candidate, Sen. Kamala Harris (D-Calif.), but there is another woman participating in the debate, moderator Susan Page, and since Trump didn't give any examples of the gaffes he's witnessed, it's all up for interpretation.
