“I am still baffled by this pick. Why would the anti-establishment candidate who won by more votes in primary history pick the establishment guy who is—a bunch of bad stuff—(and consider him to be?) a suitable VP candidate?”
Maybe Trump doesn’t want a knee-jerk, `yes-man’ lackey?
You don’t learn much from people who always agree with you.
Pence is a lot more conservative than Trump, right?
(Or at least that’s what we’ve been told for months by the `true conservatives’.)
Try to stop worrying so much and be less, um, concerned. As you recognize, The Donald knows what he’s doing.
There’s a difference in a yes man and major differences on key parts of his platform which you called “a bunch of bad stuff.” You know that. Trump knows the opposite positions, and he ran against them very well. He went after his fellow candidates and Hillary for these positions.
The “true conservatives” are the establishment who has failed us. I don’t care what they have to say.
