After officially announcing his running mate Gov. Mike Pence, Donald Trump is refusing to hit the campaign trail with the governor in his home state of Indiana.

Numerous journalists are reporting that Trump won’t campaign with Pence:

The idea that a nominee with ditch his running mate right after announcing him is perfectly in character for Donald Trump. One of the dynamics that is hurting the Republican Party is the presidential campaign is the fact that Donald Trump is a lazy campaigner.

Trump is being blown out of the water by the Hillary Clinton campaign. Clinton or her surrogates usually schedule numerous events each day, while Donald Trump is content to hold two or three rallies a week.

If Trump wanted to send the message that he is happy with Mike Pence as VP, not campaigning with him is not the way to do it. Trump continues to send the message that he isn’t taking running for president seriously.

Donald Trump feels entitled to the presidency, and he wants the American people to hand him the White House on a silver platter.
