This seems to be a workable solution for ND. 
I kind of like Pence. He presents as sincere and not like Trump -- a loose cannon. 
Pence says some reasonable things. As yet he hasn.t loosed his religious beliefs which seem somewhat radical an extreme. 
When/IF Trump crashes Pence just might do a reasonable job. 
Finally -- Trumps speech was the first and only time he SEEMED more reasonable. Maybe he is learning, I hope. 
On another topic -- if the GOP goes down in some serious way ( war for instance) then the USCCB will also go down into that cesspool they all have constructed. 
And finally -- I think the nation and the CC should split up into two camps. One for us and the other for them. One nation more moderate and one CC more moderate and following the 'path of Christ'. 
The Rights can have a nation based on profits, death, war and the religious beliefs of JPII and BXVI and the nasty GOP peopleless thinking. 

just a thought. But a persistent one.
