You'll recall that George McGovern had to find a new running mate in Sargent Shriver in 1972.

Given Trump's volatility, would it really be surprising if he dumped Pence and found a "new running mate"?
Or, pence gets disgusted and quits. Wonder what the odds are that pence doesn't last through the convention I see this little partnership as shortlived.

First thing he will do is reverse every single thing obama had done. That alone will get America back on the right path to greatness..
Then he can go after felony clinton, and make sure she is prosecuted and buried deep in a federal prison. See how the country is improving already, and he is just getting started...
Love your screen name... perfect descriptor for a trump supporter.

Dont vote for Trump, his Vp supports XY and Z.. vote for Clinton, who supported XY and Z..

yeah, the left really dont think their arguments thru very well

Try reading. The poster I responded to said a VP has had zero influence in any policy in the last 40 years. I did not even mention how many times a VP had to assume the presidential seat. I never said it that VP is top thing to consider when voting. So before bashing try reading and comprehending and leave assumptions behind.

Trump doesnt CARE about these issues. He has stated that he believes the VP is really important, as he doesnt understand the political system that well himself. The VP will be very influential. And the VP is a die-hard globalist and establishment puppet! Trump is a fraud! Doesnt matter if Clinton voted for it, with Trump you'll get the trade deals, plus the massive gifts to the donor class, plus the tax cuts for the bilionaires (paid for by you through slashed medicare and more fees on everything).

The VP has little power. You're in a forum about politics and you don't know that?

And so does Trump! He is a fraud! A puppet! He claims he is radically different on these issues but that's laughable. The VP will be very influential according to Trump as Trump himself doesnt know the political system and he needs this right-hand man. Trump is a big, big con-man. Why did people believe he was anti-globalist really? Look at his businesses! Look at his history! Pence will be his right hand man and will take care of the globalist agenda for Trump and his big money donors. To hell with workers.
