Now that Dems won big in Michigan, it's worth taking a look at how Mike Pence is actually one of the state's biggest losers this election cycle.
He made himself a constant presence, visiting his neighbor state almost once a month starting in March of 2018 #MIGov

Every visit, Pence stayed on-script, touted tax cuts & got 2-3 rounds of news coverage. He also visited multiple times in 2017, gave a commencement at Hillsdale, and supported Bill Schuette nearly 10 months before the GOP primary.
As one example of how it didn't work, @gretchenwhitmer flipped Kent County red to blue -- even though Pence brought his fake resolve & Trump's tax-cuts-are-great act to Grand Rapids in August, Sept, and then again in Oct a week before Election Day #MIGov
Even more embarrassing, Pence declared at the @MIGOP rally after the primary: "Tonight, we send a message all across the state of Michigan that Republicans are united."
None of that was true. detroitnews.com/story/news/loc…

And you can't leave out the fake rabbi that became a national embarrassment for Pence and Michigan Republicans nbcnews.com/news/us-news/j…
So what does Pence have left to show for all his campaigning here?
In a swing state like Michigan, he is either just as toxic as Trump, a total non-factor, or voters see right through the GOP's garbage tax cuts message.
