Pence faults 'negative' DNC, previews next week's RNC themes

WASHINGTON (AP) — Previewing themes for next week's Republican Party convention, Vice President Mike Pence promised a heavy focus on GOP support for law and order as he drew a contrast with Democrats for a "negative" tone at their gathering and failure to acknowledge violence plaguing some U.S. cities.
"We're going to make sure that the American people see the choice here," Pence said....
The vice president said he was turned off by the negativity shown by Democrats, who argued Trump is unfit to lead the country for another four years. Former President Barack Obama, a frequent target of Trump's broadsides, warned that democracy itself is at risk under Trump.
"I didn't watch much of it and, frankly, I couldn't watch much of it," Pence said. "There was so much negativity, nothing but ad hominem attacks."
