Speaker of the House Paul Ryan said Friday that he can “think of no better choice” for Donald Trump’s running mate than Indiana Gov. Mike Pence.
“Mike Pence comes from the heart of the conservative movement — and the heart of America. I can think of no better choice for our vice-presidential candidate. We need someone who is steady and secure in his principles, someone who can cut through the noise and make a compelling case for conservatism,” Ryan said in a statement.
“Mike Pence is that man. Mike and I have been friends for many years, and he has put his principles into practice by passing the largest state tax cut in the history of Indiana and expanding school choice for Hoosier families. He will help bring real change to Washington, and so I will do everything I can between now and November to help our ticket and our party win a national majority.”
Ryan is more likely to find agreement on trade with Pence than Trump.
In a 2015 letter to Indiana congressmen, Pence wrote, “Reducing tariffs and other trade barriers so that Indiana businesses can enjoy increased market access and fairly compete on the world stage is something that Congress must do. I encourage your support for Trade Promotion Authority, the Trans-Pacific Partnership, the Trans-Atlantic Trade and Investment Partnership and any other trade-related measures when they are brought before the Congress for consideration.”

“Trump supported TARP. Pence opposed. Trump opposed NAFTA, Pence supports. Ditto on TPP. Trump supported Muslim Ban. Pence opposed.”

Pence also voted to go into Iraq. Does anyone who lives in Indiana or knows Pence know if he has shifted positions? I will be very interested to hear him interviewed on Hannity tonight and in the near future.
Wait, whut?
He gets to APPROVE the ticket?
Delusions of adequacy.

That’s why I would have preferred Sessions or Christie. When Ryan likes someone, it concerns me. My vetting process. Does Paul Ryan and his friends like this guy? Yes? No cigar.
I hope the good people of Wisconsin votes this POS out on his butt!!!
Legend in his own mind.
Counting the days till RYAN is gone as SOTH.
Pence's positions really don't matter. The POTUS sets policy. The VPOTUS executes the policy. If he doesn't like it he can resign.
If Trump says get this or that policy through congress then it's Pence's job to get it done whether or not he agrees with said policy.
Obviously it would be better if the VPOTUS is fully on board but not necessary.
Ryan approves? I’ll certainly sleep better tonight.
I want him replaced with Nehlen.
Well, la-di-dah.
No one cares whether this quisling punk approves or not.
Primary this bearded Smeagol!
P2 can think of no one better to be Cantorized.
well! Paula gives his blessing? I will sleep better tonight!
sarcasm nonpareil... ;^)
I’m fine with the ticket too, but I couldn’t give a crap what Ryan thinks about anything.
