Mike Pence being vetted as Trump's VP.

Puke,God I hate that asshole.


Indiana Gov. Mike Pence is "in play" as a possible contender to be named Donald Trump's running mate at next month's GOP convention, sources familiar with the vice presidential search tell NBC News.

An individual knowledgeable of conversations about the decision tells NBC News that Pence was made aware several weeks ago through an intermediary that he was being considered for the VP slot.

Officials close to the governor stress that Pence has had absolutely no direct contact with the Trump campaign since before Indiana's primary in April. Pence, who is running for his own re-election this November, endorsed Ted Cruz over Trump in the primary contest but noted at the time that the real estate mogul has "given voice to the frustration of millions of working Americans with the lack of progress in Washington, D.C."

In a news conference on Thursday, Pence declined to say whether or not he is being vetted.

2. Lord Mike I hate gays Pence and Mattress Mary Fallin, what a pair!

He is leaking these names to placate his crazy ass base.

4. I wouldn't be surprised if Pence ends up

being his pick. Trump is going to lose the establishment GOP,latinos,African-Americans and women regardless of who he picks,but evangelicals will buy a Pence VP with gusto,Christie not so much.

3. TP for my bungholio

5. I doubt anyone who thinks they have a political future wants to be tied to Trump

But, after Mike Pence's dumpster fire of a first term as governor, he may have nothing to lose.

6. His homophobic,rabid anti choice reputation would be a plus for

the GOP's infamous "values voters" too. Pence pondered running for president,it could be that he feels VP would be a bigger feather in his cap than failed governor.

7. He's a decent choice for Trump

for the reasons you state, although I don't think people realize just how dumb he is until they actually meet the guy. There is no doubt that if he thought he could be VP he would jump at the chance. The question is, does he want to be tied to Trump in a losing campaign, especially if he loses in a landslide?

8. That is the question. Maybe the fact that his reactionary

social policies are bleeding businesses from his state has his internal polls not looking too rosy? Even a losing Presidential campaign would get him national attention which he would want for a future presidential primary.

9. I hope he picks him, he adds nothing to the ticket

10. Other names I've heard as choices are Christie and Gingrich

Neither bring anything to the ticket either.

11. Christie would be a net negative. Gingrich would either be neutral or slightly positive.

Gingrich would have to be crazy though. He has some semblance of a reputation within his party and I can't believe he would be stupid enough to attach himself to a losing ticket that way. Christie is not going to lose anything since he has no standing whatsoever.
