    Trump's VP choice is a torpedo into the hull of the #NeverTrump ship. Trump is also putting behind him the inflammatory rhetoric that was designed to win the Republican nomination. Hillary is only polling at 43%, so there's lots of available voters to put Trump on top.

    Trump has a better chance of winning the election than most of the other GOP candidates would have had. And, president Trump will make a better president than most of the GOP candidates. More fire and less neoconservative business-as-usual -- a good thing.

    Hillary would be an unmitigated disaster for our country. Her Supreme Court will nullify the Constitution and she'll continue to redefine tyranny (slavery to Leftist immorality) as freedom.

    Says who? Trump advocates? Pence is at best, a "do no harm" selection.

    So Trump is NOT talking straight, but only saying whatever he needs to say to win? I thought that was supposed to be Trump's appeal... he was allegedly a straight-talker that wasn't trying to be "politically correct."

    So now I'm on notice that Trump is insincere in what he says, or else he is not being forthright with the America voter for political reasons. Thank you for clearing that up.

    Some of them, but not all of them. A decent Republican candidate would have the full support of the Party.

    Says me. Pence is a counter to all the RATs' objections to Trump.

    Trump is willing to express some popular feelings that other candidates are unwilling to express. If that makes Trump relatively a straight talker, then so be it.

    Romney and McCain only won 47% of the popular vote. If Trump gets that, in spite of the RATs, it'll prove Trump was a stronger choice than most GOP candidates. (As the population has had another eight years to shift to congenitally socialist/parasitic/immoral persons, Romney and McCain wouldn't even be able to get 47% today.)

    I know BB, nothing thrills you more than the prospect tyranny of President Hillary. But, for those of us who believe in freedom, we're rooting for Trump, even if he's only the lessor of two evils.
