Pence is clearly steering Trump toward Ryan/Priebus GOPe guys.
He is very, very close to Ryan.
Across the Capitol, Pences task was to mend fences. A pal of Paul Ryans, Pence successfully negotiated the détente between the feuding House Speaker and party nominee. Like a Sunday-school teacher, Pence told the pair to knock it off and get back to the same hymnal. Then after the election, when conservatives threatened Ryans role as Speaker, Pence was on the phone calling potential naysayers to tell them that Trump wanted to keep Ryan in that role.
