Donald Trump says on Twitter that he is delaying the announcement of his running mate following the deadly truck attack in France.
After a day of speculation about who might join Trump atop the Republican Party’s presidential ticket, Trump tweets on Thursday night: “In light of the horrible attack in Nice, France, I have postponed tomorrow’s news conference concerning my Vice Presidential announcement.”
Trump had been scheduled to unveil his pick at an 11 a.m. news conference at a hotel in midtown Manhattan.
Late Thursday, a truck drive onto the sidewalk and plowed through a crowd of revelers who’d been gathered to watch Bastille Day fireworks in Nice, France. Authorities say dozens of people are dead.
In light of the horrible attack in Nice, France, I have postponed tomorrow’s news conference concerning my Vice Presidential announcement.

Actually this is too little too late. He should instead postpone his entire campaign.
Suddeny un gentleman et un érudit.
Yes indeed. Stop Radical Trump Terrorism.
MSNBC is reporting otherwise.
Hardly. He just figures he won’t get the wall to wall all day thru Sunday coverage all to himself.
