Quayle salutes Trump for Pence pick

"It shows how he’s probably going to govern,” the former Bush 41 VP says in his first public comments since the announcement.

INDIANAPOLIS — Former Vice President Dan Quayle praised Donald Trump for making a “great choice” in picking Mike Pence as his running mate, telling POLITICO that the move would help calm a cross section of voters who may have otherwise been nervous about the billionaire real estate mogul atop the ticket.

“It gave a lot of comfort to Republicans, independents and some disenchanted Democrats,” Quayle said by telephone on Saturday in an exclusive interview. “It’s a great choice for Donald Trump and hopefully they’re on the road to victory.”

Quayle had already said in May he would support Trump in the general election, putting him a step ahead of both his former boss, George H.W. Bush, and his boss’s son, George W. Bush. Asked whether the former presidents were any closer to backing Trump, even if they won’t publicly say so, Quayle replied, “Clearly in their heart of hearts I should hope they would want a Republican president, but they can speak for themselves.”

Well, that does it.

Dan Quayle approves of Mike Pence, so what more is to be said?

The words of Dan Quayle won't change the public opinion of lifelong New York liberal Donald Trump.

Trump is still a vile liberal and it appears he always will be.

Now THAT is quite the endorsement!  Something to really brag about Trumpsters!  But all I hear is crickets.  ha ha

The fact that it was posted means that not only did someone deem it valuable (which it isn't), but they also failed to understand just how laughable it is.   :silly:

I won't call Quayle a dirty name, I always thought he got a lot of undeserved abuse..............well until now, now I'm thinking maybe he really isn't that smart after all. But I won't call him any names, it's cruel to call someone with limitations names.

The establishment is bringing out the BIG guns now.  Tomorrow Speaker Hastert will endorse Trump from prison.  Bring back Bob Dole.  That will convince me.

Nothing says bladder protection like endorsements from the Depends crowd.

I remember when Lloyd Bentsen told Quayle, "You're no Jack Kennedy"; well, Jack Kennedy was no Dan Quayle either. Weak remark by Bentsen, couldn't get over a comparison without a cheap shot.

I would have seen that as a compliment, after all he was saying that Quayle wasn't a lying, whoring, adulterer, drug addict, member of a criminal family who won the presidential election through criminal acts.
