Frequently straying from the notes on the lectern, Trump talked about himself and likely Democratic rival Hillary Clinton, often detouring from the objective of the event: to introduce a little-known politician to the broader public. Yes, Hillary Clinton voted to authorize the mission, though she came to regret it, and she’s acknowledged many times that she wishes she’d gone the other way. “She is responsible for ISIS”. Trump says he opposed the war from the start. “She’s got bad instincts”.

U.S. Republican Presidential nominee Donald Trump and his running mate Indiana Governor Mike Pence appeared for the first time in public together since Pence was named as Trump’s running mate in NY on Saturday. The program airs at 7 p.m. Sunday on WKMG-Channel 6.
“We hear about how great IN is to do business”, he said.
“I think we will have very, very good chemistry”.
Whatever one thinks of Pence’s views – and we find many of them narrow-minded and troubling, such as his skepticism about climate change and his attacks on abortion rights – he possesses the sort of résumé that Americans traditionally expect in their presidents and vice presidents.
“You can imagine a moveon.org and some of those more progressive sites using those photo ops in strategic ways and strategic places that would gain traction”, Frantz says.
Chris Christie is disappointed but has “no discontent” over presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump’s decision to choose someone else as his running mate.
“My fellow Hoosiers, I’m here to announce that today in New York City, I accepted Donald Trump’s invitation to run and serve as Vice President of the United States of America”, Pence said during his brief, eight-minute address to the gathering.
Trump tells “60 Minutes” that he and his running mate are ready to confront troubles in the world. Trump himself will not be in attendance, according to the campaign’s website. “And part of it is that; a big part of it”. We need law and order. We have people coming to our country who can’t be vetted properly. They don’t have paperwork. “I don’t ever get into anything that I don’t want to win”, Christie said.

Pence has been very outspoken against negative campaigning, so Stahl asked him how exactly he squares that with being the running mate of someone who’s not only a negative campaigner, but engages in nasty, insulting nicknames. “They see America in decline at home and overseas”. Saturday morning, Trump and Pence appeared together in Manhattan to make it totally official.
