Tonight Vice-President-Elect Governor Mike Pence took his wife to a performance of Hamilton on Broadway. The cast took the opportunity to call out and target Governor Pence and his wife Karen. They later bragged about it on twitter.

The real irony/absurdity is thick: Historically Hamilton believed the individual was not subservient to the state, a position exactly the opposite of the protestation decried by the social justice cast using Hamilton’s legacy as the basis for their performance.

That point will be lost amid the chattering class. Then again, liberals have a history of attacks against Republican Presidents’ in theaters.
