The New York Times’ Robert Draper has a rather remarkable accounting of how Donald Trump went about picking Mike Pence as his running mate more or less by default, which includes this doozy:

One day this past May, Donald Trump’s eldest son, Donald Trump Jr., reached out to a senior adviser to Gov. John Kasich of Ohio, who left the presidential race just a few weeks before. As a candidate, Kasich declared in March that Trump was “really not prepared to be president of the United States,” and the following month he took the highly unusual step of coordinating with his rival Senator Ted Cruz in an effort to deny Trump the nomination. But according to the Kasich adviser (who spoke only under the condition that he not be named), Donald Jr. wanted to make him an offer nonetheless: Did he have any interest in being the most powerful vice president in history?
When Kasich’s adviser asked how this would be the case, Donald Jr. explained that his father’s vice president would be in charge of domestic and foreign policy.
Then what, the adviser asked, would Trump be in charge of?
“Making America great again” was the casual reply.
A few important caveats: This particular leak is coming from Team Kasich

Trump Reportedly Tried to Convince Kasich to Be His VP by Offering Him the President’s Job



 
The Dems are running a genuine criminal and Carlos Slim's newspaper reports this


LOL
 
Kinda interesting and really not all that surprising. These people are not politicians, nor are they average people who live life in a manner that makes sense. When born with the silver spoon, you tend to be out there. I am thinking of American libertarians as an example. I know many who because of their wealth see the world in a way the average person would think huh. Read this piece, is this presidential material or a great huckster?

"What started as farce continued as farce. Trump emerged without Pence. He spoke, alone, at a podium adorned with Trump’s name, but not Pence’s. And then Trump proceeded to talk about himself for 28 minutes. There is no other way to say this than to say it: it was the single most bizarre, impulsive, narcissistic performance I have ever seen from a major politician."

Donald Trump’s speech introducing Mike Pence showed why he shouldn’t be president
