It won’t be Rubio if Trump sticks to his word of wanting an experienced insider to deal with Congress.

I don't think Trump would personally pick him, but maybe Manafort is pushing this thinking it will help Florida. If Florida is called early, it will affect Ohio and maybe Colorado, Wisconsin, New Mexico, Iowa and Nevada.

Marco Rubio has always been a whore. It was predicted by the savvy people at Hillaryis44 (now a Trump website, eschewing Hillary!) that Rubio is particularly vulnerable to selling out in directions we want him to.

Cruz told the Colorado crowd earlier that it’s easy to talk about making America great again — “you can even print that on a baseball cap” — but that the more important question is which candidate understands “the principles and values that made America great in the first place.”

Does that mean getting in bed with and wildly fornicating and fluffing every establishment elitist he can get close to?

Wow he makes me sick. To think I bought his book “A Time For Truth”. I actually believed he was “the only principled candidate in the race”. He proved how stupid I was to believe him. Six months ago no one would have believed Cruz would be where he is right now - in bed with the GOP elite.

I’ll still vote for him if he is the nominee but I’d like a refund on the book.

So, is Manafort talking with Rubio about VP?

I don't see what else it could be.

Oh god you are ridiculous if you mean that IMO.
Here you have Trump getting it on all sides by the RNC, the Press, Donors and Ted acting like a burgler since his Carson fiasco.

Are you truely offended if an outside candidate like Trump doesn’t just stand there and take it, REALLY?
You wouldn’t do something yourself if that was you?
Were we not offended by stuff like this from the Democrats and other enemies with Palin AFTER she left the contest with McCain?

No one should be a piñata.

3 reasons

1-He’s a Christian

2-He forgave him

3- He’s putting ‘country’ before petty grievances

If Trump has something to say, he should have the courage to face Ted one-on-one in a debate and say it.

What the hell are you even talking about?

“If Trump has something to say, he should have the courage to face Ted one-on-one in a debate and say it.”

You mean like Ted Cruz told Ben Carson to his face in a debate that Carson dropped out of Iowa?

As I said I could live with Kasich as VP if he bring the delegates. Trump would have eight years to Make America Great Again then how bad could Kasich screw it up.

That would be an interesting pairing, to offer the VP slot to Rubio, thus going over the head of the #NeverTrump crowd (and to a large part, the Republican Establishment), and sort of short-circuiting the Cruz strategy.

Playing the bank shots and the combinations on the pool table. Makes one hell of a hustle after pranking around and acting as if a wrist were broken in the early rounds of the match.

Playing the set-up for the long game.

Rubio is dead in Florida. He still has a following elsewhere in the country. I’d rather have him than gaysick.

“I am about a millimeter close to refusing to vote for Trump in November, so his team of punks had better watch themselves.”

You have to be f-ing kidding me, Cruz’s team is the biggest bunch of Sleazeballs in the last fifty years, and you call Trump’s team ‘Punks’? Get lost.

You’re being played

Sooooo.... Sleazeballs for Cruz—bad.

Sleazeballs for Trump — Good.

Do I have that about right?

Anything to get rid of Cruz. The good thing about Rubio is 8 years under trumps leadership would be a good thing. Rubio was an idiot to trust the GOPe with gang of 8, but that even pales to what Cruz is doing in bed with the GOPe.
