Ted Cruz: ‘I Have Zero Interest Whatsoever’ in Being Donald Trump’s VP Pick
Breitbart ^ | 4/19/16 | Michelle Moons

Posted on 04/19/2016 5:30:59 AM PDT by markomalley

A Donald Trump-Sen. Ted Cruz unity ticket seems less likely now that Cruz told the Good Morning America audience on Monday that he has “zero interest, whatsoever” in being Trump’s pick for vice-president.

Bonnie Pointer, who was described as an undecided voter from Vacaville, California, asked Cruz via video, “Would you accept being Donald Trump’s Vice President?”

Cruz thanked Bonnie for her question saying, “Let me just answer very simply, I have zero interest, whatsoever, in doing it.”

I have no interest in being Cruz’s VP pick.

Just wanted to clear that up.

Hahaha

Have you seen his CRBA? He couldn’t leave home (Canada) without it.

Cruz doesn’t under any circumstances want to be connected at any juncture with the walking disaster of a Trump white house. He is smart enough to see what a mess it will be.

“If either of these two get the nomination they are going to have a huge trouble uniting the party and winning in November.

Theyre like two kids who need to be separated by an adult and forced to go sit in their own corners”

Sad isn’t it? All the losing candidate would have to do is not actively campaign AGAINST the winning candidate.

Interesting times.

The metaphor that's in my mind is of two sabre tooth tigers in a battle to the death over mating rights, and their battle carries them into the Brea Tar Pits.

“All the parliamentary maneuvering in the world is not going to get Cruz the nomination.”

Even if it did get Cruz the nom, it won’t get Cruz in the White House. Which is just fine with the establishment. At least their feeding trough will be safe.

Good because he’s not eligible.

Five courts have already stated he is...when are you going to give it up on the eligibility issue?

“If Trump gets the nomination his veep will of course be Kasich. No brainer. “

I can only see a Kasick VP if Trump needs a deal to reach the nomination on the first ballot. If Trump needs the delegates you may see a Trump/Kasich ticket but it would be a shotgun wedding.

I think if Trump reaches 1237 he will take a younger person who has legislative experience. I’d bet it is a woman to help drive down the negatives with women. A name that has been suggested is Susanna Martinez but we’ll have to wait and see.

I would not be surprised if Kasich ends up on a ticket with Hillary as a “National Unity” ticket to provide a uni-party coalition against Trump. I’m not predicting that but just saying I would not be surprised to see it.

“...I don’t believe that there will be a Trump-Cruz ticket. There is simply too much water under the bridge.”

Also, Cruz brings nothing but trouble, drooling cultists, and NWO slime into the ticket. Oily Felito trails a nasty slick, and is purely a detriment. Far worse than Bush 1 on the Reagan ticket. FAR worse, and THAT was a disaster.

Kasich has a reputation of being prickly to work with. In congress he was known to enter a meeting with a room full of friends and leave the meeting with a roomful of enemies...the exact opposite of Donald Trump. I’d prefer a different VP for Mr. Trump.

As if Donald J. Trump would have the slightest thought of having Ted Cruz as VP, LOL

Parrot what you have heard because it must be true.

One of the two actually is drawing new people to primaries outside his home state.
///-———————————

Another one who does not understand the difference between primary elections and the general election .

The same acts and actions that are allowed to fly during the primary election the general electorate is not going to be so forgiving of. If the war on women was used effectively against Romney I can’t imagine it will be at least doubled when used against Trump
For example, Trump is going to start winning in states that he is unlikely to carry in the general election

I know Trumpers tell themselves a lot of good storiesabout how wonderful is flawless he is but the reality doesn’t match their fantasy at least as it pertains to the general public outside of primary voters. And should he get the nomination they are no longer going to have Cruz as a fallback when he trips and stumbles during the general election

And we have little interest for you to be one heartbeat away from the Presidency. Liars never prosper.

No way! I noticed Heidi is made up to look like Hillary with her hair the way Hillary used to wear it. Scary.
