I was never excited about Pence. Too many unknowns and too many ties to the GOPe. When others here were enthralled with Trump’s pick, I was envisioning 8 years from now and how we’d be stuck with someone that might undo the good Trump did and give power back to the RINOs.
I was very critical of the Pence pick on here initially and took a lot of heat for it. That said, as time went on, I grew to really like Mike Pence and think he was a great pick. I still think Pence was the best choice for Trump. He did a great job defending Trump and sticking by him. He’s obviously going to work hard.
I know he and Ryan are friends, though, and I’m not a supporter of Ryan.
