Ted Cruz does NOT want to be a justice. Will you ever learn?

Ted Cruz dreds the idea right now. He feels he’s too young to be sentenced to the bench for the rest of his life. He says that he may be open to it sometime in the future, just not anytime soon.

Make the Trump state Dems join a filibuster and the extreme libs, if they dare, then go nuclear. And don’t let their state’s voters forget about it in 2018.

That’s interesting. Now all we need is for Ted Cruz to say it instead of you.

You show your link that shows the slightest hint, outside of the imaginations of your mind, Ted Cruz, has any desire to sit quietly on a bench the rest of his life?

I was quoting the Slate writer. It’s in the article.

This is a reminder (from the other side) how important it is to have majorities, even if it takes people like John McCain or Lindsey Graham.

So you cunningly, place it next to the title without benefit of quotation marks?... Then demand me to provide a link. You are NOT nearly as 'intelligent' as you believe of yourself.

There is no need for insults.

From the article:

“If Democrats don’t take up their seats at the table and go through the process—if they, with no power, try to tell Donald Trump that they will not engage with any non-Garland nominee—they are assuring themselves nothing both now and down the road. Senate Republicans will find themselves in the clear to do away with the filibuster with no consequence, blaming it on Democratic petulance. Neil Gorsuch will land on the Supreme Court, quickly, and in another year or so Justice Ted Cruz will enjoy swift confirmation to replace either retiring Justice Thomas or Kennedy, or dead Justice Ginsberg or Breyer. Liberals would lose the court for generations.”

What makes these people think that garland would have been appointed by Hillary.

I think it would have much more impact (and exploding liberal heads) if we wait and replace RBG with Cruz. Can you imagine the stuttering and stammering. Priceless!!

So which one of Ted Cruz's cronies helped plant this notion... It has NOT been all that long ago when the jocks at Politico were singing Ted Cruz's high praises.

This is coming from Slate... Since when did Slate wordsmiths ever care about ‘conservative’ standards?

It sure did not come from President Trump. One more ‘faux’ story fed out to the Cruzites hoping and praying for Ted Cruz to finally be somebody.

IF Ted Cruz had bench ambitions he would have never run, ineligibly, I might add, for the office of president.

We may finally be done with Claire McCackle.
She won’t get to choose her opponent next time...
