We American Citizens are so lucky to have a candidate that will put off his own things, and take time to recognize the importance of things going on around us...

Thank you Mr. Trump and your family, and campaign for the thoughtfulness we have not seen for 8 years in a world crisis...

We are so blessed...

Why can’t he run for both? Every other elected official does.

All those headlines I saw today about Pence, what were those?
everything was in error? Has Matt Drudge retracted yet?

Why??? He can get good, sound military advice in asking military people who were sidelined during Obama’s horrible term.

I still remember Stockdale and what a terrible candidate he was. I shudder to think about a non-politico as veep.

Sounds like a good opportunity to send a message to Pence that leaks are not tolerated. ....he may have just lost the VP slot

...not disagreeing that it’s the right move, given the France terrorism, but Pence needs to notify Indiana of re-election intentions by tomorrow. If Trump doesn’t announce tomorrow, it shows Trump’s card that Pence is the guy......will be interesting

IF Pence does not file to withdraw from Indiana's 2016 gubernatorial race by noon ET Friday, then Trump's VP will not be Pence.

I'm wondering if Pence will want to be VP if terrorism is going to spin out of control. Might be something to be said for staying in Indiana.

You make a good point. Assuming terrorism spins out of control AND the BLM-type protestors in the US become less controllable. A capable General as VP might be realistic.

As usual, I'll trust Mr. Trump to make the best decision possible under the given circumstances.

Awesome!

He is controlling the news cycle.

Plus he is getting the chance to change his mind and select Duncan Hunter.

Trump might have changed his mind after this last attack. Can’t see Pence in all-out war with Islam if something happens to Trump.

I think Trump postponed just the presser, and that out of respect (or if you are cynical, out of a desire to preoccupy the news cycle). He said while talking with Van Susteren tonight that he hadn’t made his final decision just yet - named Gingrinch, Pence, Christie. I don’t think the attack in Nice will affect his choice.
