^ Exactly. Just think about how long people were batting around Sessions' and Flynn's names as potential VP picks, only for it to ultimately go to Pence. I know some people weren't too keen on Pence at first, but I think he's been an asset thus far, and certainly a better pick than Christie would've been. President Trump is, without a doubt, great at not showing his hand too soon.
I think anyone who actually believes President Trump has been "softening his stances" or "backpedaling" lately will be in for quite the shock once he's officially sworn in. In my opinion, and time will tell the tale, I think he's using misdirection to conceal his true intent. If no one knows what he's up to, it'll be a lot more difficult for them to try and thwart his plans. That's just "Power 101" stuff.
