From what I see here is what Pence would bring:
***
Pence would more likely bring in voters like my dad.
My father loathes Hillary, but he’s bought into the MSM propaganda about Trump, and told me that they’re both terrible and that Trump is a moron. He liked Jeb! of all people in the primary. Yuck!
Of course, I attempted to argue Trump’s positives, but he just does NOT want to hear, cutting me off with, “You’re not going to change my mind.” I suppose he either doesn’t want to change his mind, or it’s just because he changed my diapers 30 years ago and can’t get over that.
I love and respect my dad, but we got into a rather intense fight when he said that about me. Drives me nuts sometimes. But at least he’s not as bad as the rest of my immediate family who have been known to try to publicly shame me for my politics.
Anyways, enough about my woes for the moment. I can imagine that there are a fair number of voters out there who know that Hillary is bad, but swallowed the propaganda about Trump. These are the people that the Pence pick is aiming for, IMHO.
Correction: Dad and I got in a fight when he said that TO me.
You know, we kind of laugh at the how silly and blatant the media bias sounds, but there two things to keep in mind:
1) Old people, like your father (and my father), TOTALLY EAT THAT UP.
2) Others claim to be on to them...and then parrot their talking points.
I don’t know which one is scarier.
My sympathies with the know-nothings in your family.
I can only quote Scripture which certainly applies to you in this case:
“A prophet is without honor in his own home”.
Trump is going to win this thing, and that means WE win this thing. And so does our Nation.
