Trump sends a signal

A president's VP is generally his most likely successor.

Trump is vetting several people for the job, none of them genuine Trumpists in their known views and positions, and some very standard conservatives quite at cross purposes with the Big Government and New Deal friendly campaign he has run.

A let-down for his rust belt, working class constituency, this is also a signal and a cozying up to the conservative establishment, allaying concerns at the possible Trumpification of the party, should he win.
