Apparently Trump Isn't Too Happy That Pence Upstaged Him

Reports suggest Donald Trump is unhappy at Mike Pence for winning the VP debate

http://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2016/10/5/13170838/pence-trump-unhappy

I can see Trump's ego being bruised because Pence did better than he did and not only that I can also see Trump being livid because Pence didn't defend the orange Dictator...Pence is after all padding himself in case he runs in 2020...

I can't wait to see the SNL sketch...

Pence threw Trump under the bus a few times. Hey, that was his only chance to talk. Trump will have duct tape securely fixed over his mouth next time you see him. Pence was preparing his 2020 run.

Pence won the debate? The fact checkers say otherwise. I'll take substance over style any day. I don't know why people think Pence had style. Lying gives one style?

I don't think Pence won the debate at all...he wouldn't stand up for his co-ticket so what does that tell you? Last night he seemed as stiff and rigored as he always does in front of the camera...it's like his face is going to crack if he smiles...

Yes, it's pretty obvious that Pence was keeping Trump at an arms length during the debate, more so to protect himself for when he does attempt a run in 2020...so then he won't have people coming after him and throwing his words back at him...clever but predictable...

I thought Pence's arguments on abortion were obnoxious...It's always men who seem to be the ones who craft the laws and tell you the lay of the land when it doesn't affect them or their bodies whatsoever...if you believe in right to life, good for you but don't fricken tell me or any other woman what we should or shouldn't do with our bodies...

Pro choice does not mean pro abortion....

I agree, HH. I couldn't believe the CNN analysts immediately handing the debate to Pence because of "style". That's what a debate is supposed to be about? Style? Pence sounded whiny to me. The only stylistic thing he did well was look into the camera. Kaine didn't do that.

Analysts also talked about Kaine interrupting Pence, but Pence interrupted Kaine too. And Kaine always answered the moderator's questions, whereas Pence refused to answer the moderator's questions.

Interesting. Posted at 12:36. Kinda fast to know how Trump feels eh? While I wouldn't doubt Trump us upset Pence did better then him, and/or didn't defend Trump enough, this article seems more like speculation then actual news. Even the tweets highlighted are speculative. A source close to Trump thinks this won't go over well with Trump isn't the same as if a source close to Trump said he was upset Pence did better.

But like I said, I wouldn't doubt if this ended up being true.

There have been an awful lot of leaks from Trump's camp...

Not denying that, but again the source from Trump is only speculating, the only cites speculations, yet less then 2 hrs after the debate had ended they were ready to report Trump was mad at Pence. Again, I wouldn't be surprised if true, but you still need some proof before report it as fact. This is junk journalism.

There have been a lot of leaks to CNN...they think it's because the GOP basically has to resort to shaming him into doing things like debate prep etc...

It wouldn't surprise me if he has stepped on a few toes over the last little while...he's very ego maniacal and he often doesn't speak very nicely of people or to people so I think he's getting a dose of his own medicine...

Besides it being reported that Marla was behind the tax leak, it's now becoming a question of whether or not it was actually Tiffany...Marcia, Marcia, Marcia...

I've posted about this at least twice in the past few days and Storm has managed to have them removed.

What is so horrific about Marla or Tiffany possibly being a fink that it has to be deleted?
