Trump's advisers told national party officials that he had settled on Pence, according to two Republican sources familiar with the campaign's operations. "I've got three people that are fantastic," he said. He heaped praise on Pence and his other two finalists, former House of Representatives Speaker Newt Gingrich and New Jersey Governor Chris Christie. He told Fox News he had not made a "final, final decision" on a running mate. "This has to be dealt with very harshly," Trump said. Trump, who has proposed banning Muslims from "terror states" from entering the United States, said in another Fox News interview that the attack in France showed the United States and the rest of the world needed to get tougher in the fight against Islamist militants. He said in a Fox News interview: "We will announce tomorrow when it will be." "In light of the horrible attack in Nice, France, I have postponed tomorrow's news conference concerning my Vice Presidential announcement," said Trump. But he tweeted on Thursday night that the attack in Nice, where a truck slammed into a crowd, killing dozens of people, prompted him to delay. Trump was due to make his official announcement on his choice on Friday at 11 a.m. Viewed as a safe pair of hands, Pence, 57, has diverging views with Trump on his proposed Muslim ban and trade, and is more socially conservative, but he could help unify a divided party behind Trump's White House bid. If Trump runs in 2024, destiny won’t be calling Ron DeSantis until 2028 – and that’s fine.Donald Trump abruptly postponed his planned announcement on Friday of his vice presidential running mate because of a deadly truck attack in France, but Republican sources said his choice was expected to be Indiana Governor Mike Pence. I’m fairly positive that it won’t be a certain governor from Florida. Who will make the perfect house plant to compliment his unique and masterful style? I couldn’t even guess. So, Trump has his work cut out for him between now and when the time comes to announce his next pick for VP. (My favorite Harris quote: “What else do we know about this population, 18 through 24? They are stupid”) The other day The Federalist published a bunch of Kamala Harris quotes as “inspirational posters,” and it was the funniest thing I’ve seen in a while. You know it’s bad when Tucker Carlson is doing 10-minute segments to mock Kamala Harris’s public speeches. And that’s saying something, since Biden no longer has a functional brain and Pelosi now lives at all times with the boxed Chardonnay within arm’s reach. Her public statements on Ukraine and other issues are so impossible to unravel that it’s easier to understand Biden or Nancy Pelosi than her. I’m starting to wonder if she’s on dope, or maybe borderline retarded. Harris is front-and-center for the administration these days, and yet every time she opens her mouth, she does material harm to LOL-81-million-votes Joe Biden’s reputation and to America’s standing in the world. She’s now America’s Border Czar (how’s that job working out, by the way?) and simultaneously our Lecture Europe About War Czar. The puppet masters pulling Biden’s strings keep inexplicably putting Harris in charge of important, high-profile problems. She’s highly visible, obnoxious, incompetent, and she hurts Joe Biden’s reputation every time she opens her mouth. Then there’s the Kamala Harris type of vice president. Pence was a great house plant for most of Trump’s first term. And most importantly, a house plant can’t do anything to harm you (“you” being the president). They sit there in the background, and they don’t do anything important. The first type is a house plant, and that’s the type that you want. There are two types of vice presidents that you can have when you’re a president. It was only at the very end when he went bonkers. The weird thing about the Pence betrayal is that he wasn’t a bad vice president for three years and 11 months. Those tweets then became Mike Pence’s legal justification for not doing his constitutional duty on January 6th, 2021. Then, they had that judge set up a Twitter account and tweet his poorly reasoned legal refutation of the plan.
They found a retired judge in Colorado who had not read the legal reasoning of Trump’s scholars. So, Pence sent his lawyers scouring the earth to make a legal opinion up out of thin air. Pence didn’t want to do that due to cowardice, but his lawyers had no argument to refute Trump’s legal scholars. Trump’s legal scholars determined after reading the Electoral Count Act that the vice president has plenary authority to reject electoral votes from states where fraud likely took place.
As I wrote a couple of weeks ago, the lengths that Mike Pence went to in order to betray Trump at the very end were borderline insane.
