Trump tweets his approval of Pence's 'GREAT' debate performance
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.
