Apparently, he must also believe in ghosts, as one of his policy advisors is demanding that the long-dead Ayatollah Khomeini should denounce terrorism.

Who knew that Ouija boards could play a role in foreign policy?

Can we give him the benefit of doubt on this one, and assume that "Khamenei" was said, and that the error lies with thehill.com? I think this is likely as they did not flag that Khomeini is dead and "Ayatollah" is their addition.

I'm not sure. Donald Trump didn't even bother to learn anything about his own VP pick until (apparently) right there at the podium when he was announcing his selection. He was reading from a crumpled piece of paper that, judging from the delivery, he had never seen before. I reckon Ivanka stuck it in his hand as he was walking onto the stage. Why would he, or anybody who works for him, have a clue about WTF is going on in the world?

A little off topic, but did Pence always look so orange, or did they stick him in the spray tan booth so he wouldn't look like a ghost next to Trump?

According to the Google, he has been significantly less orange in recent history.

No he got it wrong, I watched the video.
Edit to add: Or at least he pronounced it badly.

Trump saw him celebrating in New Jersey with Elvis, Lord Lucan and Shergar on 9/11.

Anyone else see 60 minutes?

Trump still wants to ban Muslims but also partner with Turkey to destroy ISIS.

Anyway, Pence is very calculated in every response.

My American hairdresser is for Trump, but my British hairdresser is against Trump! I'm conflicted!

Well, the GOP is always going on about how the market decides.

Name one thing that Hillary has done without the influence of her husband. Think Girl, Think.

Are you suggesting her lengthy legal and political career is just a hobby of Bill's?

If you wish to dissuade me from voting for Hillary, it's you who needs to do some think thinking, boy.
