Donald Trump was so unsure about Gov. Mike Pence as his running mate that around midnight last night he asked top aides if he could get out of it, CNN reports.
NBC News confirmed the report.
Washington Post: If anything, this leak is just the latest proof of how poorly the whole thing has been handled. And that poor handling, in turn, makes the rumor seem quite plausible.

(65,381 posts)specifically because he was second-guessing his choice of Pence. The reports all say Pence was pushed on him by his kids and his SIL, but that he preferred Christie. I figured he would use the postponement to give him a chance for a do over. Now there will be the extra spice of tension and resentment between the running mates.
Heh heh heh.
