Vice President Mike Pence seeeth. Vice President Mike Pence doeth.

In a moment that quickly went viral and became the source of laughter (as well as concern), Pence was captured in an extreme sycophantic moment as he robotically removed a water bottle from a conference table after President Donald Trump—for no good reason that anyone on Earth has yet thought of—did so first.

Watch:

 

 

 

In response, Twitter howled:

I am laughing so goddamn hard at this video of Trump inexplicably putting his water bottle on the floor, and Pence immediately doing the same for no reason whatsoever. pic.twitter.com/qEFPzKClYj

It's probably one of his 'signals' with Pence 'If I put my water bottle on the floor that means I hate what they're saying - if you agree, put your water bottle on the floor' - you know, like kids in a tree house
