      I care about pokemon but only because it became my duty as a father after “Dad, let’s play pokemon!”.

      Pokemon Go is kinda great actually: It’s a video game but it gets people up and walking.

      If you ever have kids, you’ll probably share my fate lol

      Trump seems to just riff on his weak understanding of the last thing he heard. Maybe they were afraid of a weird rant about bulbasaur extinguishing clean coal.

    “My son, who is seven, is in the hotel room with me,” Vance told the podcast about the phone call he got from former President Donald Trump on the first day of the RNC to tell him he was his veep pick. “And he is really into Pokemon cards right now, he’s going through a Pokemon phase… I mean he’s really into it, so he is trying to talk to me about Pikachu and I am on the phone with Donald Trump, I’m like ‘son, shut the hell up for 30 seconds about Pikachu,’” Vance told the podcast.

    Vance is going to find out that his political career is just a phase, but his kid will be into Pokemon forever.

      Ehh, not interrupting someone when they’re making a phone call is pretty basic manners.

        Sure, “basic” manners that we can expect of adults. Yelling at kids to shut the hell up doesn’t teach them manners, it teaches them to stop sharing their interests with you.

      I’m no fan of Vance or Trump, but I would think if you’re on the phone with a previous president of the US and he’s inviting you to be his running mate, you might also be telling your kid to STFU about a game for a minute.

      If not, you have the patience of a saint.

        If a former President called me while I was in a room with talking person(s), I’d bring my phone to a bathroom and close the door for privacy.

        Yeah, interrupting someone when they’re on a phone call isn’t exactly good manners.
