Any opinions when he will start naming cabinet positions?
No news conference today, but there you have it!
In under the IN deadline. It all works out.
Now....let’s see what happens.
Go Trump/Pence!
I thought it wasn’t Pence.
I am so glad. Pence was always my first choice. I just posted on another thread...Pence is so dignified. And Trump needs all the help he can get in the dignified category. Just sayin’.
Would love Newt as Sr Advisor
Sarah as Dept of Energy
Christie as AG
Rudy or Sheriff Clarke as Homeland Director
Not a horrible choice, a safe choice I guess. I would have been happier with Gingrich or Christie. I saw Pence with Trump the other day and was not impressed. Maybe he’ll step up his game. Now time to get them both elected!!!
WOOHOO!!! We have our Presidential Team....Lets all go to Make America Great Again!!!
Trump/Pence ALL THE WAY TO THE OVAL OFFICE!!!
FWIW, Pence has not withdrawn from his Governors race. He has until noon today to do so.

Indiana Gov. Mike Pence would bring constitutional fidelity, conservative credentials, traditional faith, foreign policy, Washington know-how, and a calm, steady, Midwestern demeanor to a national ticket with Donald Trump, boosting the New York businessman with several types of voters that may prove to be the key to building an electoral coalition that could propel Trump into the White House.
Pence began as an outsider who served 12 years in Congress and rose to leadership.
Pence was an Indiana talk show host who took on the party establishment to get into Congress. Once there, he was regularly a thorn in the establishment’s side, routinely opposing the go-along-to-get-along establishment playbook. But he did so as a “happy warrior” who kept disagreement focused on policies, while being friendly and personable with his opponents.
Over time, Pence became very popular among conservatives, and effective at communicating a conservative message through the national media. He was elected the chairman of the Republic Study Committee (RSC), the organization for stalwart conservatives in the U.S. House so that they could coordinate their efforts to maximize conservative outcomes. (Over time it became “cool” to join the RSC, and with the influx of moderates it became both larger and less conservative. That led to the creation of the House Freedom Caucus in 2015, filling the same role originally performed by the RSC.)
Pence repeatedly opposed George W. Bush’s proposals to expand government. When Republicans lost the U.S. House in 2006, Pence took the ultimate anti-establishment step of running against John Boehner to be the leader of House Republicans.

What isn’t ‘dignified’ about Trump?
The fact that he chose to delay his official announcement and press conference about Pence until tomorrow in respect for the victims of the Nice France terrorist attack?
Trump knows all about dignity. You’ve not been paying attention.
Excellent ticket.
Go Trump/Pence
Good choice. Better than Christie. There just aren’t that many people to choose who have Trump’s views on trade and immigration who are elected.
Meh.
Pence folded like a cheap suit when the LGBT jihadis and the appropriately named USAG “Lynch” screamed at him.
..Newt is still going to be around in some capacity...
Good, glad that it’s finally been decided. Now lets have an incredible convention and go out and win this election in November!
The time for discussing whether or not Pence is the best choice is over.
Trump-Pence 2016!
Disappointed it’s not Newt, but I suppose Newt can still do a lot of good in another position.
