SCOTUS. Cruz needs to cut a deal while he can.

He lost everywhere tonight. Trade the delegates for the SCOTUS nomination!

Good idea.

That would mean Trump would have to cut a deal with the senate
for Cruz to get the votes.

Not sure Trump could get that deal.

Agreed. He's done on the national stage, he's done in the senate, and he's done in Texas.

I was thinking tonight that yeah, he could go to the SC for 4 or 8 years, come out and run again...

Cruz sadly burned a bridge for SCOTUS with the Chicago first amendment debacle. What a doofus!

Bingo! The establishment has been rallying around and endorsing Kasich over the past week. Ted’s not too bright if he doesn’t get that they don’t want him any more than they do trump. He should suck it up, team up and kick a$$.

Ted is losing what little leverage he has left, and looking at the upcoming primary schedule the hope for a comeback doesn’t look promising. The establishment got what they wanted out of him and they’ll cast him aside, so in the next few weeks he’s gonna have to come to terms that he’s not going to win the nomination and cut whatever deal he can with Trump or end up with nothing at all.

Lousy deal for Cruz. Trump would have to win general, Trump would have to keep his word, Cruz would have to get through a Senate with more than 40 dems.
