Ted C is certainly capable of doing the gig... and doing it well. But I think he still entertains fantasies (delusions?) of the White House.
He was born in Canada. He can’t be president.
He might be a good choice for the Supreme Court. The youngest current Justice, Barrett, is 54 as of last month. KBJ is 55.
If Clarence Thomas were to retire, Trump would be under pressure to replace him with another black justice. I don't doubt that he could find a good conservative black lawyer for the position...but that would exclude Cruz from consideration. I like Thomas staying on the court...unless he winds up being replaced by a Democrat pick.
