I think he’d be a phenomenal Scalia replacement.

There was no primary campaign left when he said, “vote your conscience.”

It was a capstone speech made to undermine Trump’s ability to fight off Hillary.

Thank you for reminding me.

FUTC.

A Bloomberg reporter’s tweet? I imagine Trump is considering _a lot_ of people for _a lot_ of Admin posts.

What does nationality have to do with being AG?

never put a past enemy in a position where he can hurt you legally.. the last thing Trump wants is putting Cruz there IMHO

i once thought that Cruz would be good in that position. However, after having thought of the matter, Solicitor General would be a better position for him.

At this time in his life he’d be too aggressive for the AG position. He needs to learn how to deal better with people.

No way will Cruz be AG

The first rule for picking an AG is to have a loyal person who can be relied on to have your back

Cruz is not that man and neither is Trey Gowdy

Rudy is but he does not want the job.

Bad move
Cruz is blackmailable
The stories of his sexual predations were not investigated when they started to surface - his affair with Amanda carpenter was pretty obvious due to her cloying narcissism
We need an AG with no vices that render him vulnerable to blackmail

Or we get another John Roberts
Neutered, tainted, self preserving

It’s possible, since Trump appears to be attempting to unify each wing of the party under him. Cruz is an awful human being, but the one positive thing is that he’ll take his desperate need for attention and his sociopathy and combine them together in relentless persecution of Democrats.

I absolutely HATE the possibility that we will lose BOTH Ted Cruz and Jeff Sessions from the Senate’s Republican caucus since their presence keeps at least some brake on the Senate RINOs’ tendency to be ‘RAT-lites. We NEED that influence in the Senate.

The campaign is over.

Trump knows what he’s doing. This is just a smoke screen or a head fake.

Trump knows better than to trust Cruz. He’s a snake.
