To me it seems like there's significant division with the refugee crisis, though I might have a definition of what constitutes civil war.
Anyway, I wont argue, as I don't have first hand experience there right now.

Newt needs to wrap this up unless Pence speech is rather short.

I'm glad this guy isn't VP, he's everything wrong with fearmongering populism. "Losing the war" and "taking our freedom"? Your people are safer than ever before, and the only freedom lost is ironically in the name of the security theatre that you advocate.

That's about as civil war-like as the division on whether or not to legalize marijuana

They should have kept the original Trump-Pence logo.

I hear that in their first interview with 60 Minutes, Donald Trump sat with Mike Pence to his left? This suggests to astute observers that he's secretly uncomfortable with Pence being his "right-hand man" and furious on the inside! Our Buzzfeed pundits are working to bring you more on this development.

Shouldn't he have started with Mike Pence's boss?

oh, just there to introduce Pence. I thought he'd say more

Any info on why Trump left?

Since Pence is speaking next, I think he's just introducing him.

As someone very anti-Syrian refugee, I think it's a huge deal with massive repercussions for the future. While I'm against weed legalization, I don't think it's that big of a thing in the grand scheme of things.

Someone just mentioned that how was Cruz able to have a speech where he didn't endorse Trump. Was it not cleared or did he go off script at the last minute?

For some perspective, Jordan (a country with lower GDP than Lithuania) has taken as many refugees as the entirety as Europe. Yes, this is a more important issue but the division on it is just as far from civil war as it is on the topic of legalizing soft drugs.

Light of his life, mother pence. No offense Mrs. Pence and kids

Pence is doing a pretty good job imo. I mean if I didn't already know I disagree with so much of what he believes I might consider him as someone I could vote for

They had his remarks. He went off script a few times, but that last part was in there. I actually believe the theory that Manafort was ready to whip for boos.
Funny thing is, if the Trumpists in the crowd had just let it pass, people wouldn't care as much! lol.

Typical attack ad
It's going to go real bad for Cruz when Trump actually wins

Woah. Just realized something. This is some deeps cuts of Canadian culture, so most won't get this, but Pence's intonation, the way he speaks sounds an awful lot like Stuart McLean from CBC's Vinyl Cafe (tells random stories about Dave and Morley- really weird program.)
Stuart McLean

Or Stuart making fun of himself on the Mercer Report comedy show.
