Pence did the same with NATO allies in Europe, Trump's nominee for Supreme Court and Harrison both contradicted him as well during nomination hearings, and on and on.. I wonder which of the two explanations they use the most: "Don't believe a word of what Trump says; he simply cathers to his not-so-bright voter base, and does not really means it one bit", or "See? The guy is crazy: we will protect you from him, but you have to give us some slack so that we can calm the beast". Obviously, both are largely true, but I would be surprized that any of them would work on experienced politicians. Oh well....
