Outside of the crazies in the religious right there is basically nobody who thinks hating gays is cool anymore. I'd love to say that Trump can't possibly be dumb enough to pick a fundie as his VP but... it's Trump.

His claim is that he wants to announce it before the convention so that he isn't overshadowed by anyone else during the convention. I think Corker said he'd announce by the 15th, but who knows.

Announcement on the 14th then, concurrent with Pence resigning maybe.

Even in Indiana is backfired for Slime Golem since the hoosier mentality was mind your own business and they were more interested in classic GOP talking such as reducing government.

Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg jokes that if Donald Trump wins the presidential election, she’ll consider moving.

In an interview with The New York Times published Sunday, the Supreme Court justice said her husband, who died in 2010, would have said, “‘Now it’s time for us to move to New Zealand.’”

“I can’t imagine what the country would be with Donald Trump as our president,” she said. “For the country, it could be four years. For the court, it could be — I don’t even want to contemplate that.”

Pence is a goddamned trainwreck of a regressive shithead and I hope his dirty laundry is aired on the national stage

Y'all can poo poo all over Indiana but remember TWO loving THINGS:

1) nobody could slay Cruz until we got ahold of him
2) we kept Pence and a lot (not all, sadly, though we fought) of his poo poo in check for years

Communism will help more white people than anyone else. Any equal measures unfairly provide less to minority populations just because there's less of them. Democracy is truly the tyranny of the mob.

Hillary fought for lgbt rights as sec of state, getting the UN to pass a resolution for gay rights. I forgot the details.

Yeah and to be honest, racing is bigger here than basketball anymore. Nobody I know pretends it's about the race tho, it's about getting rip making GBS threads drunk all weekend which is why the first question you'll ever hear is, "how much are carb day tickets this year"

the IndyCar series is way bigger than the NASCAR one here tho. I mean just look at the name

The only angle I can think of for Pence, aside from the small but real chance of becoming VP, is that he might think he can take over as the statesman of the campaign, release a bunch of policy things, do all the meetings with donors/party leaders, etc. All of the real politicking that Trump hates. And always be conveying his sympathies that Trump is loving everything up. Then when Trump loses, he can try to play it off like he was responsible for everything good and they would have won if not for Trump, and that he should be the nominee next time since now he has national campaign experience and connections.

Yeah, I agree. Being the running mate, even on a losing ticket, might be just the thing to bring him to national attention for the first time, and leave him well placed for bigger and better things. Hey, it worked for Paul Ryan. (Arguably.)

So that's one possibility. The other possibility is that the only thing anyone will remember is the stench of Trump, and that would mean he threw away his kingdom in Indiana for nothing.

Calculating the probabilities of which scenario is more likely is probably taking up a fair amount of Pence's time lately.
