Mike Pence reminds me of Paul Winfield's General Casey character in
Mars Attacks!, specifically the scene where he's been selected by the president to welcome the Martians to Earth. On the way over he's in a jeep, talking to his wife on the phone:
"I get to meet the Martian Ambassador! Ain't that great? Oh, it's a hell of an honor. But didn't I always tell you honey, if I just stayed in place and never spoke up, good things are bound to happen. Yeah... Okay." [makes kissing noises and ends the phone call]
Replace the too-racy "honey" with "Mother" and it could be Pence talking to
his wife.
