But the decision didn’t come easy for Trump, according to reports.
Scoop: @realDonaldTrump was so unsure about @mike_pence that around midnight last night he asked top aides if he could get out of it

The selection of Indiana Gov. Mike Pence is an interesting one, given that Pence endorse Ted Cruz in the Republican primary, and has taken positions that are significantly at odds with Trump’s positions on a variety of issues.
It's disorienting to have had commiserated w/someone re: Trump – about how he was unacceptable, & then to see that someone become Trump's VP

Is there anything they actually agree on?
