Republican National Convention delegates from the District of Columbia who are bound to or supportive of Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) tell Breitbart News that they are open to supporting Donald Trump instead.
Some are making the pitch that they want Trump to pick Rubio as his vice presidential candidate, but nonetheless the warm comments many of these Rubio delegates are making about Trump—instead of about Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) —is perhaps a sign of a turning tide in the delegate game after Trump captured at least 89 delegates in New York last night.

I think cruz is delusional about his own appeal as an alternative to Trump
Does he really think trump people would change their votes on the 2d or 3d ballot to pick a voteless weasel?
“:^)
Gotsha...
I’m not sure what his thinking is.
I think he would be smart to end his campaign.
That doesn’t sit too well with some folks.

Agreed, and yet I think Rubio is less dangerous ... he knows he's unethical - or rather - a-ethical. Cruz is deeply hypnotized by the illusion of his own moral goodness, therefore, he never reflects, sees no need to. There actually IS no morality without reflection. Rubio knows what he is, and he's OK with it. Cruz has zero idea who he is, but he has a deep belief in his illusion of what he is. He is lost in his-self.
The road to hell is more often paved by lack of self knowledge (usually of the original sin kind) than it is by intentional malfeasance. Rubio's evil is petty and harmless compared to Cruz.
You nailed it!
Trump needs someone who can work the legislative branch bureaucracy but not be disloyal or a planted GOPe stooge intended to,block Trumps presidential,powers
Not sure anymore that rubio can meet that criteria even with the best staff ever to do the actual work and report back to trump’s staff which is going to be results oriented, an alien concept to govt bureaucracy
All rubio brings to the ticket is a pretty fresh face but if that is what it takes.... As long as trump retains a food taster
Cruz burned his bridge when his PAC used that nude picture of Melania
I doubt if there will ever be good blood between cruz and trump
He has continued to prove himself an asshole in every respect
The look in his wife’s eyes is indicative of his true character
VP Power Person - Col. Alan West, John Bolton, or Newt Gingrich?
Education has been ruled by the socialists for over a hundred years. It's actually surprising it took this long.
Tom Tancredo.
None if them has even had the balls to endorse trump
West is a retired LTC for gods sake and a political loser
Wth does he know about arm twisting in congress to get the president’s agenda passed ?
Granted the dems gerrymandered him out of a job but give it a rest
This is no Patton
Secretary of the VA
Maybe
If there are no women problems hidden like Cain
Never thought of West. Either him or Tancredo. I would sooner Tancredo since he has some good experience.
I am afraid its gonna be Kasick though. Hope not.
Rubin would be good as Trump’s anti-Hillary attack dog.
Tancredo? That’ll drive the Saudis to eat bacon... LOL
Pro-amnesty Rubio?
Yuck!
Doubtful. Each of them are firmly associated with the East Coast as is Trump himself. I think Trump will reach West for a running mate.
Pro-amnesty Rubio?
Yuck!
Ever take a look at his voting record in the House? As well as his stances on things in general?
They think Cruz or Lee is conservative? HA!
Trump would undermine his own message enormously by making someone like Rubio his VP pick. Rubio represents everything that has gone wrong with the GOP.
