Why did Trump choose Pence? The guy is the most extreme VP candidate ever. Below is just one example of his nasty extremism...?

Obamacare to the 9/11 attacks and threatened to block Hurricane Katrina reconstruction unless it was offset by cuts to Medicare, the National School Lunch Program, and PBS.

Update:

    Mike Pence is a non-personality that both the progressive Republicans and the corrupt establishment can accept.

    Lt. Gen. Flynn would be a great VP for Trump, but he is too liberal for establishment Republicans.

    It's like Trump is trying to lose. At this point, depending on who Clinton picks as VP - Sanders or Warren ideally - means I'm voting third party.

    Clinton picking Sanders or Warren might bring me back to the left.

    I'm sure many agree with me.

    Sure Indiana's doing well under Pence's governorship though on social issues he is morally reprehensible.

    Last time I voted there was no where to chose the Vice President.

    Since I'm definitely not voting for the lying, incompetent, crook candidate I guess it's going to be Trump

    Because Trump is a liberal, so he wants to get both the more liberal Republicans and the radicals who would rather shoot poor people than give them benefits.
