His running mate errrrr, not so much.
Mike Spence is a nutter. He wants to put the US back on the gold standard and wants the sole focus of fiscal policy to be price stability and for the goal of full employment to be abandoned.

Pence also has no understanding of how spending equals income and has proposed that the minimum wage is too high. That either makes him an idiot who doesn't understand the role of consumption spending in creating income, or it makes him that understands that by restricting net spending in aggregate you can force the non-government sector [business and households] to spend more than the earn - creating the demand for credit / borrowing from banks.

If Trump doesn't get rid of this bloke - nothing will ever get done.
