Premonitions and quotes from inside the aircraft:
For months, reporters traveling aboard Mike Pence’s campaign plane have joked about the hard, bone-shaking landings from small Iowa airports to major metropolitan hubs as the Republican vice presidential candidate has crisscrossed the country. The “Make America Great Again"-emblazoned 737 has been bumping its way across the swing states, prompting one reporter to joke morbidly a few weeks ago that a “Pence plane veers off the runway” story had been pre-written.
Over the course of a few seconds Thursday night, those jokes became a jarring reality as the Pence plane slid off a rain-slicked runway upon landing at LaGuardia airport, injecting near-disaster in the 2016 presidential campaign.

Could be camera angle aligning with the extended flaps.
PJ2: At F5 perhaps, but beginning with 15, the tilt down begins to be obvious from the rear.
