No... Pence is a great choice.
Not so sure about that one. If Pence is as compromised as he has appeared to be over the past number of years, then it’s only a matter of time before the Deep State takes a shot at Trump.
A VP in the modern day and age first and foremost needs to serve as assassination insurance, and Pence may not pass that test.
In contrast look at the list of post-Reagan VPs and you can see that not one of them would have been preferable to the top dog, from the point of view of the Deep State. Nobody had anything to gain from replacing Bush I with Quayle, Clinton with Gore, Bush II with Cheney, or Obama with Biden - in each case the successor would have been more of the same. Pence would break that pattern.
