And after 4 or 8 years of Trump, Cruz can move on up. So, I agree that if Trump says something unforgivable he will lose both the presidency and the vice presidency. But if he does really well, we may end up with both Trump and Cruz. I'd be OK with that.
Cruz could keep Congress under control and help Trump handle the politics of the Presidency.
The way Trump is steamrolling I think he has a good chance.
There is only one thing that will stop him.
Trump himself saying or doing something that goes too far...
He is taking a wrecking ball to everything. There are a lot of Dems and Republicans that would vote for him because of it.
