Yikes! He's a disaster.

1. LOLOLOL!

Typical

[Me.]

2. This Says To Me.

That down the road, somehow, he will get rid of Pence.

[wisteria]

9. Or ignore him.

[katmondoo]

12. That was my first thought too

They do not seem like compatible pair.

[skepticscott]

15. Probably not

But it's hard to think of any running mate who would be compatible with Trump.

[LynneSin]

19. Or the GOP might find a way to dump trump

And run Pence as the Nominee

[SaschaHM]

3. Hahahahahaha

We know how Donald acts when he can't have his way..... I can't wait until this flames up on the trail.

4. There was a long delay before the rules committee met yesterday

rumors of a "deal"being made.

I firmly believe that the deal was "you take Pence or you might not get the nomination".

And, if I were Trump and somehow get elected... I would hire a bunch of food tasters and no go out in public much... I think the GOP establishment likes the idea of "President Pence".

5. Ah, Interesting! If Trump was blackmailed into this pick....

We'll find out about it for sure. He won't be able to contain his tantrum.

Really good rumor/intel. Thanks.

7. Already being rumored on M$NBC

that as late as midnight last night Trump wanted to change his pick.

[ymetca]

6. Exactly.

Pence is a Koch brothers tool. Apparently their plan B is that the fool Trump, if elected, would get himself impeached.

Well, it sounds more like their plan Z!

[tblue37]

24. Impeachment isn't the only possibility. He needs to be very careful

if elected.

[NYC Liberal]

25. The GOP themselves would do the deed.

I don't know what I'd want Dems to do in that situation: vote against to keep the Trump rope wrapped around the Republicans' necks for the next election, or vote for it but get President Pence.

[UCmeNdc]

8. Mike Pence is a lackey for the Koch Brothers.

Don the Con is not so independent as he would like his supporters to believe.

[MineralMan]

10. Apparently Trump is not the only deal-maker

among the Republicans. He may well be out-classed in that regard.

[liberal N proud]

11. The GOP just conned the Con Man

[hamsterjill]

13. I, for one, am happy this is being reported by the media.

It makes Trump look indecisive. Which he is. He is indecisive, right? Because indecisive is great and it's great to be indecisive. Many of his best friends are indecisive. He'll make indecisiveness great again.

Right?

Sorry, I got carried away. But I have YET to hear Trumpence explain ONE part of his plan to do anything. I can only imagine the stress put upon him by having to pick a running mate.

14. Indiana Gov. Mike Pence signed a law this year that mandated funerals for fetuses

16. I love it when a plan unfolds, crashes and burns. This election needs Kieth Olvermann.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

17. Unconfirmed (1 report). Anon source. Unexplained motive as to why aide(s) would damage tRump. . . nt

[LynneSin]

18. WAIT ONE GOSH DARN MINUTE>........

That means the Indiana Governor's election just became open season! And we might have a chance to get a decent Governor in that state and overturn those hideous, hateful, Jim Crow style discrimination laws???!!!

[coco77]

20. So if Trump were president.

And he made a decision like drop a nuclear bomb does he think he can take it back the next day?

[auntpurl]

23. It's like Brexit.

People googling the day AFTER the referendum "What is Brexit" "What is EU" "What will happen if we leave EU"

[turbinetree]

21. There are so many ways to make the TP into the disaster

but I am afraid that I would get barred from the site

[progressoid]

22. Yikes! He's a disaster.

Which one?

BOTH!!!

[MFM008]

26. He deeply regrets this

which is hilarious.
He would back out in a second if the 'wedding' invitations weren't already printed.
