I am so split on this... Pushing him would make the Sessions confirmation hearings a cake walk, Cruz likely would be stupid enough to resign his senate seat as the liberals will demand, and then they’ll proceed to Bork him on out.

I’m sure McCain will be right in front of the cameras stating how disappointing it was to find out all this stuff about a former fellow senator and it was good that he resigned so the senate didn’t have to take action against him.

Honestly, I don’t think we have time to play games, there’s too many opportunities for SCOTUS to write even more laws, and we need a solid jurist on the panel as soon as possible.

Wouldn't he have to resign his Senate Seat, because he sure couldn't serve as an Associate Supreme Court Justice and as a senator at the same time?

Also you have to remember this is all wishful thinking by the author.

If you liked Blackmun, Brennan and Souter on the Supreme Court, you’ll love Cruz.

"Tedlim"

Bury the hatchet? Sure, strip Cruz of his citizenship and send him to Canada or Cuba. LEiberman, he always seems more concerned with Israel than the US, send him there. Trump needs people that believe in American first, last, always.

Pick Lieberman because Romney may not have voted for Trump? Who does he think Joe voted for? Joe Lieberman probably has never voted for a Republican for President. In 2000 he was part of the Gore effort to steal the election from GWB.

Cruz can have the toilet seat, as far as I'm concerned.

“Trump needs to expand the GOP tent for 2020. He needs to show he is the president of all Americans”
Flawed premise, right there! Trump won, they lost...they can ride in the back of the bus. Sound familiar?
Omoslem won twice, not by being the President of all Americans. Who thinks this s*&+ up?

Hell no to Crus after the way he acted at that convention. Nothing but a backstabbing, untrustworthy turd.

Cruz isn’t the enemy. Big-government liberals are.

I was more saying that senate Dems would demand Cruz resign his senate seat before the confirmation hearings could begin (as they would probably not want him voting for himself like others have done...) and then would see to it that he washed out through the hearings and subsequent vote.

He could, I believe, still keep his senate seat and sit on SCOTUS, just would, as a matter of course, have to excuse himself from anything that would be related to senate business. Since so many believe everything is senate business, I’m not sure he’d be able to rule on anything.
