Until Trump says it, its speculation no matter who does it.

[proust]

Still a better pick than Carly.

and yet trump’s campaign has already this isn’t true:

Among the likely VP choices, there’s going to be disappointment no matter who Trump picks. It’s too bad Cruz turned out to be such a turd.

[plain talk]

Safe choice. Pence won’t upstage Trump like Newt. No one cares about the VP anyway.

Gov. Pence’s executive experience, as well as his foreign policy saavy, while serving in Washington, will bring a lot to the table.

If TRUMP was going to pick soft on Muslims, soft on borders, milquetoast Pence, the Muslim terrorist attack in Neice France needs to be a wake up call for TRUMP to CHANGE HIS VP PICK TO NEWT. ONLY strong on borders, strong on Muslim terrorism NEWT IS STRONG ENOUGH TO SERVE AS VP, and strong enough to serve as President to TOTALLY CONTINUE TO carry on and to carry out TRUMP'S AGENDA should Mr. Trump die, be killed or become "incapacitated" while in office!

The insanity of choosing Pence must stop. We need a qualified candidate entirely capable of stepping into President Trump's shoes day one if needed. Newt is also much more capable and forceful dealing with the Congress and Senate to get Mr. Trump's agenda passed than Pence is.

Gov. Mike Pence's tweet bashing Trump's proposed Muslim ban resurfaces:

Governor Mike Pence ✔ @GovPence

Calls to ban Muslims from entering the U.S. are offensive and unconstitutional.

Pence has a strong track record of approving and supporting trade deals.

A lot of people apparently are very unhappy with the announcement, unhappy with CNN as the source and unhappy finding this thread which had been in Breaking News on Free Republic.

Please don't shoot the messenger and please don't ban me. Thanks!

Local ABC News just gave another Breaking News announcement:

Donald Trump is on a local fund-raising visit today.

Local ABC News confirmed "again" that Mike Pence has "officially been offered the VP slot by Donald Trump" and that Pence has "formally accepted."

Local ABC News said that Trump "also announced" that he had delayed his announcement, which had been scheduled for tomorrow, due to the Nice, France terrorist strike today.

USA Today/ Indianapolis Star Headline and link only:

Indiana Gov. Mike Pence is Donald Trump's VP pick

CNN updated and confirmed again the story at 8:31 pm Eastern time.

ABC National News also just confirmed that Pence is the official VP nominee.

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

Again?

[bd476]

If CNN, ABC local and national news outlets lied about Trump's campaign "officially disclosing" that Donald Trump had "officially" asked Mike Pence to be his running mate, and that Mike Pence had "formally accepted;" then BBC News also is lying in their headline story from nearly five hours ago.

If it's all a terrible lie, the media walking back the story might be at least interesting to watch.

BBC: Donald Trump chooses Mike Pence as his running mate
