Trump's deal with Cruz

Exclusive: Gina Loudon reveals candidate who holds all cards to stop establishment

Phyllis Schlafly has been watching the GOP establishment pick our presidential candidates since before she wrote about it in her book, "A Choice not an Echo," in 1964. She will tell you, the only president elected in her lifetime without the blessing of the establishment was Ronald Reagan.

Reagan's ability to communicate with and inspire the American people was the only force more powerful than the money and apparatus of the establishment machine.

Jeb Bush was obviously the pick of the establishment. The money was there, and Bush was definitely spending it, but the GOP primary voter has not been swayed by the hundreds of millions of dollars being thrown at them.

After South Carolina, this is a very different race.

Bush is out, and Rubio is the clear heir of the establishment crown that Jeb relinquished when he suspended his campaign....

Cruz was stupid to cozy up Trump the first time. If he didn’t learn anything and gets back together with Trump, he will prove he’s nothing more than RINO loser who needs to be primaried into the stone age.

If Cruz makes a deal with Trump then everything that every Trumpeter has ever said about Cruz will be proven true.

I think Trump is a politician who is FINALLY for American jobs and industry.

Finally.

Nobody else.. Trump is the right person.

This is utter drivel !

Trump is going to win, beating BOTH Cruz and Rubio...easily, and doesn't have to "make a deal" with either of them.

I don’t think there will be a deal. I think there’s a 75% chance that Cruz will endorse or give a wink and nod to Rubio once he’s out.

I really don’t see the relevance of that. Are you claiming the son of a large Cruz donor would try to assassinate Trump?

So, are you now claiming that Ted is a RINO GOPEer, after all? ;^)

G.H.W. Bush was, of course Reagan's veep and was shoved down Reagan's throat by the "ESTABLISHMENT" boys.

Much more than that. I can’t believe how many people — even FReepers! — don’t realize the incredible good Trump has done by absolutely steamrolling political correctness, exercising his right of free speech (even when he’s wrong), and absolutely kicking the butts of the nose-in-the-air establishment.

I like both Cruz and Trump, for very different reasons. Imagine if the good parts of both could be fused into one candidate!

You’re not supposed to remember that incident. My Ft. Hood roommate was his next-door neighbor so I know all about that boy.

You may enjoy watching this. He's been pretty smart for a while now.

Hey, I was right about Rubio beating Cruz in SC. :)

By what? 1,000 votes in a state with a 4.5 million population?

HUNH?

Trump will be the nominee and Cruz isn't eligible to be VEEP nor president; neither is Rubio, for that matter.

Reverse what, exactly ?

Anyone else as the GOP nominee will lose to the DEM....ANY Dem!

Trump can make Cruz an offer that would be very hard not to take.

He could promise him that if he wins he guarantees that Cruz will become president!

He would be able to fulfill this promise by simply resigning before his term is up.

Now that is the deal of the century for Cruz!

I like the idea because I’d love to see Cruz in the White House and that may be the only way he can get there.

I don’t think Cruz can win the general election for president... BUT, I do think he could win an election for another term (a full term) if he is running as the incumbent with a string of conservative accomplishments behind him!

Trump loves the country and wants to save it! Once he sets that all in motion I think he would be happy to return to business and hand the keys to Cruz.

If he served 2 years and a day and resigned then Cruz could serve out that term and run for two more... a total of 10 years :-) The liberals heads would explode...lol

THINK OUTSIDE THE BOX

Given Cruz’s incredible legal resume (how many cases have you argued and won in the Supreme Court?), he would make a terrific AG or Supreme Court Justice ... So, for that matter, would Guiliani, who has been talking with Trump of late.

Don’t let your allegiance to Trump blind you to the very real abilities of the other guys. He’ll have to have a cabinet.
