Vice President-elect Mike Pence declined Sunday to join President-elect Donald Trump in his demand for an apology from the cast of the Broadway musical Hamilton, whose audience booed and cast admonished Vice President-elect Mike Pence when he attended a performance Friday night.The Trumpanzees had been calling for a boycott of the show, which is sold out for the next several months. Pence, an adult who has probably read the Constitution a time or two, isn't having any of that bullshit.
"I wasn't offended by what was said," Pence told Fox News host Chris Wallace, calling the show "an incredible production" and "a real joy." As for the boos, he added, "that's what freedom sounds like."

The crowd booed him, but he (unlike Trump) is probably used to that and knows pretty much why it happens. What was said from the stage to him was measured, polite, and important enough that he and the rest of the Republicans would be wise to listen to it.

Setting Trump up for his impeachment so President Pence can fix it.
Hamilton is sold out until August 2017. So whenever I read a screed on Facebook from people trying to build a pro-Hamilton-boycotting group, I have to do a lot of laughing. A lot.
