Ann Coulter: ‘Pence Is the Combo-Platter of Disaster’

Caitlin Yilek at The Hill writes of conservative commentator Ann Coulter’s reaction to the reports that GOP presumptive nominee Donald Trump has chosen Indiana governor Mike Pence as his running mate.

As reports emerged that the presumptive GOP presidential nominee had chosen Indiana Gov. Mike Pence as his running mate, Coulter voiced her disappointment.
