I do wonder if the WH had a crazy message for Pence to deliver to one or some of the Senators and by waiving them off he dodged being the messenger for some foul shit.
During his 30 minute lobbying session of McCain, Pence was approached twice by an aide. Waived off both times. Assume WH was on the line
