Seems strange to me. I was hoping for a more ‘charged’ candidate and a great debater like Newt or Christie. And I didn’t vote for Christie when he ran again!

I just saw this comment from Pinkbell - not cheering at all.

We now have old Tweets from Pence where he criticized Trump on the Muslim ban and said he supports TPP. Also, Pence, in an interview the other day, refused to say if he agreed with the wall. He just kept saying he supports Trump. His flip flop on the Religious Freedom Bill concerns me as well.

CNN said Paul Ryan and establishment types liked Pence and wanted him to bring Pence on board so they’d feel better about campaign. Add this to my concerns over Pence debating, and I think Trump should’ve picked Christie because Christie clearly doesn’t care about the establishment (it’s why he supported Trump), is loyal, and supports Trump’s positions. CNN also said Trump’s gut was calling for Christie, but his kids, Manafort, and others were encouraging him to pick Pence. I would have rather trusted Trump’s gut.

But this one agrees with other things I have heard, hoosiermama:

The LGBT thing was NOT Pences fault. I spoke with people involved one on the Committe who wrote it. He recognized it was poorly written Their fault. He felt a member of the committee had an agenda. Haste makes waste
After Pence signed it they realized it would NOT hold up in court. If it went to SCOTUS it would become case law just like Row vs Wade. Therefore to keep it out of court Pence was left with no choice. He went to bat to keep it out of court knowing that another case with a more conservative SCOTUS would be in the future.

Certainly don’t want another Row vs Wade on books. Guess you do!
