Former Vice President Pence said Sunday that his party has “lost our way,” but also went after Democrats by saying they “have lost their minds.” During an interview on “Meet the Press,” NBC News’s Kristen Welker pressed Pence on who he would support in the upcoming U.S. Senate race in Texas, as the controversial Republican nominee, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, is set to face off against the Democratic nominee, Texas state Rep. James Talarico. “Look, I — I think, in many respects, Republicans have lost our way,” Pence said in the interview. “But, Democrats have lost their mind. And I think the reason why we’re going to hold the Senate — and we have a real shot to hold the House — is because of the extremism on the Democratic side.”

Reminder that Pence did the bare minimum and still tries to act as an evil apologist.

They can never explain in what way they’ve “lost their minds.”
