"Donald Trump stepped up," Pence said on Fox News.
Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump has cast aside his running mate's suggestion that the U.S. should be ready to strike Syrian targets to protect civilians caught in the country's escalating humanitarian crisis. The comment Sunday evening in debate was yet another illustration of Republican vice presidential nominee Mike Pence's challenge as he attempts to validate the GOP nominee's unusually vague positions on international diplomatic and military affairs.

Donald Trump on Sunday said he disagreed with his running mate, Indiana Gov. Mike Pence, on the longstanding war in Syria during the second presidential debate, an unusual break between members of the Republican Party ticket so close to Election Day.

No candidate has entered a presidential debate so cloaked in disgrace or deeper in a hole than Donald Trump - and no candidate has ever been less prepared to face the most searing trial of his public life than the shaken Republican nominee. The walls were already closing around Trump before the Friday release of a video showing him blithely describing, in lurid and demeaning language, his efforts to seduce a married woman and how he would kiss and grope women even if they didn't want him to.
A report released last week on improving the state's tax revenue estimates also proposed changing which agency is responsible for preparing the fiscal notes on tax legislation. Currently, the nonpartisan Kansas Legislative Research Department analyzes proposed tax bills in the Legislature to estimate the fiscal impact, positive or negative.

It's good that 26 GOP state senators and candidates now acknowledge that "Kansas is on the wrong track." And that they now seem at least somewhat open to changing direction on state tax policies.
And an ever-growing list of senators and top GOP officials want Trump replaced on the ticket. Trump insists he won't leave the race, and he and allies indicate he'll go on the attack against Clinton.
