    PENCE!!!

    Thursday through Friday in the Republican nominee's life was just another chaotic episode which ended today in a Trump Egofest gone wild.  Today's Trump rally was supposed to be an introduction to the Vice Presidential candidate.  But anyone could have predicted, and no one should be shocked that the introduction would be all about The Donald. The Donald's narcissism knows no boundaries as we move closer to the election his ego grows exponentially. No one can stop his incessant need for self-aggrandizement. He is the embodiment the FoxNews mythical character "The Great White Republican".  The Great White, takes no shit, he is above all a bully. 

    The Trump candidacy is at times hard to take seriously; he is a cartoonish character built on the mythical stereotype of a 'Ril' American'. Thanks to Fox News and talk radio we know 'ril Americans' hate political correctness and love gunz and America too, they love freedom and apple pie, and the American Flag on the back of their F250.   So in an unbelievable twist of karmic retribution the clownish Mr. Trump/Barron/Miller is the Republican Party candidate for the office of the Presidency, and he has selected Governor "Periods for Pence" as his running mate.  It truly is a grand day grand year for the modern conservative movement. 

    Trump loves the women and is going to be the greatest for women and women's health.  PENCE! Has a great record on Women's Health Care policy as well, he was so great; he sure does moderate The Donald's views to being in line with mainstream America.

    As Josh Marshall wrote the other day and as have some other opinion writers have written recently, Donald J. Trump is a dangerous demagogue, and he must be stopped at all costs.  Does the Pence pick help Donald Trump, only if you are an evangelical voter, but if you are a woman, LGBTQ, an immigrant, Muslim or just your every day American minority, Mike Pence changes nothing.

    Comments

    I agree, Pence only helps with evangelicals. Trump's has many weaknesses but the one most easy to change is his weakness with moderate republicans. Pence's far right position on social issues is a large part of the moderate republicans problem with the party's shift to the right.

    Periods For Pence Has Come Back With A Vengeance

    Presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump announced Friday morning on Twitter that Indiana Gov. Mike Pence would be his running mate in the 2016 presidential election. Pence has been at the center of some nightmarish anti-abortion legislation in Indiana. In April, he signed a bill forcing women to disclose their reasons for terminating a pregnancy and criminalizing doctors who provided the service, which prompted women around the state to call his office and report on their periods since the governor was so concerned with their private matters. The protest, called Periods for Pence, is back and targeting the Trump HQ this time.

    Once the news that Pence would be Trump's running mate this fall was confirmed on Friday, the Periods for Pence Facebook page shared the Trump campaign headquarters phone number, and called on women across the country to call with information about "those hoo-has." Women took to the thread right away, asking, "Does this mean women all over the US can start bugging Trump now with our hoo-ha activity?" Another asked, "Does this mean I can call Trump directly about the blood coming out of my wherever?" referencing Trump's prior comments about Megyn Kelly.

    STAT News reported that the group's organizer — who is also collaborating with another social media campaign, "Tampons for Trump" — renewed the call to action because, "Since Trump chose Pence then he must have as deep a concern about women’s health care and reproductive issues, so he should probably know about them too."
