Running as a president as an outsider, VP is the trickiest choice. They will definitely saddle you with one of their own, to control everything you do. VP is literally the handler for an outsider president. I believe Trump managed to trick them by picking a guy they could control (for instance he did not go along with 25th), while also giving them the feeling of comfort that they had everything under control.

Ultimately I think Trump needed a rat and he knew just where to find him.
He needed someone to bail him out of a second term or we would have been stuck in the same loop in perpetuity.
He even goaded Pence by prompting him to do the right thing (Which Pence did the opposite of) effectively ending his career.
Now the dems are stuck with the worst presidency in US history, Trump looks like a savior by comparison and all the cards are starting to fall.
This whole plan was centered around getting evil to do what it does best; destroy itself.
