Donald Trump once promised a "showbiz" convention, packed with flash, celebrities and a "winner's night" featuring sports stars and champion coaches. Instead, the Republican National Convention kicking off Monday is shaping up to be a staid family-focused affair, with a lineup that features everyday Americans, successful business people and four of his five children.

In tapping Indiana Gov. Mike Pence as his running mate, Donald Trump moved to persuade America that the White House would be in steady hands with his election.

Photo / AP The deadly shootings of police officers in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, today, coming after the coup attempt and subsequent roundup of plotters in Turkey over the weekend, which followed a devastating attack in the French city of Nice, all have combined to redraw the backdrop for the Republican National Convention, which opens in Cleveland tomorrow.
As I watched Donald Trump "introduce" Mike Pence - and by that I mean talk about himself for 30 minutes - I just kept thinking: Why did the Indiana Governor agree to this? So, why then? Why put yourself so close to someone who has shown little regard for the party he will lead in a matter of days and even less regard for any politician not named "Donald Trump"? Pence returned to his home state to run for governor in 2012 with a clear eye on it being a more effective launching pad for his national ambitions than a congressional seat - even one in which Pence was part of the GOP leadership. But his return to Indiana didn't exactly go according to plan.
