I used to, but I don’t anymore.
Cruz has become someone who I cannot vote for.
It is logical for Cruz to side with Trump NOW and lock in the vice presidency.
__________________________________________
Ridiculous on so many levels.
1. Cruz would never take the veep position.
2. Trump would never offer it.
3. Trump would never align himself with the GOP-e or any of their boys.
4. Etc.
Since Obama’s selection, “natural born” covers just anyone on earth legally.
As pointed out by many, this is not a matter for federal courts. Elections in the USA are held state by state.
So, prior to an election, if this is not already in the hands of SCOTUS for some ruling on the meaning of ‘natural born citizen’, then it isn’t going to happen this election cycle.
A state court can, however, rule him off of their own ballot as not meeting the requirements. Cruz would then have standing to challenge that.
Trump could prevail on a 2nd ballot if the delegates came to their sense, but Cruz simply doesn’t have enough delegates to do so.
It is the 3rd ballot and following that will allow GOPE creep to set in. JMHO.
I ORIGINALLY wanted a Trump/Cruz ticket, followed by a Cruz/Palin ticket
But now I want Trump/Palin (especially if HilLIARy gets to run) that will at least counter some of those who would only vote for someone with a vagina
Just about, and Uncle Martin, too.
Remind me which states with actual VOTERS has Cruz WON, aside from Texas, Oklahoma, Alaska’s caucus by a sliver and Wisconsin?
I like Palin, but I doubt she’ll be the selection.
There are a lot of hot emotions about Cruz and Trump by the opponents of each.
I’m hoping they can realize that it was just the heat of battle.
I don’t like Trump and I have supported Cruz because I know he would govern as a conservative despite the bs thrown around hereby Trump supporters. But Trump has won fair and square picking Cruz as a running mate would be a mistake. Going in I knew Cruz had a problem and that problem was a likeability thing. If anything he has gotten worse.
Trump seems to have gotten some advice from adults. Not one Lying Ted or Low Energy Jeb last night. Very impressed. Trump would do himself a big favor by finding a Republican woman insider who has spent a couple of decades in DC who can pass muster with a wide swath of voters and an ability to gut Hillary as well as Carly Fiorina has gutted her.
I don’t fault Cruz for playing political hardball one bit. Sick of conservatives who will not fight. But he just brings nothing to a Trump ticket. Trump will win Texas easily. It’s Florida, Ohio and Virginia he has to target hard.
Like I said I don’t like Trump but I despise Hillary and freeloading commie pos of Vermont. So I will pull for Trump now since NY demonstrated that Cruz has a very narrow appeal among moderates like New Yorkers.
Iowa, Idaho, Maine, Kansas, Wyoming, and Utah need to be on your list, Onyx.
More than that, he does have a sizeable population of people who have voted for him and he does have the 2nd most number of delegates.
Moreover, he has been ‘2nd choice’ for many other voters.
My goal is to defeat Clinton.
I don’t find your post illogical at all.
I can think of others who would make excellent Veep selections.
But none of them have 559 delegates and a hard-hitting campaign on the ground.
Ahhhhhh its so nice!
With all due respect, it's been much, much more than the "heat of battle." I'm ticked off at Ted for allowing himself to be pulled into Trump tactics, and getting personal with the insults.
Trump's going to have to work very hard to unite the party, a tough task the way he conducted his campaign. Might as well have Charlie "Winning" Sheen as his VP pick.
Our points are not in conflict ... and I agree that as the federal court of jurisdiction, it is unlikely SCOTUS will be involved.
I still believe that on both sides it was just the heat of battle.
We are in agreement. Thanks, glennaro
It is teds only path. If he does not do what he called for in Pennsylvania ( time to unite our party and beat Hillary) then he will devolve into Ron Paul status
Trump said China has committed the greatest economic theft in history what they've done to us and it is politicians like Cruz that helped China do it. Trump knows what China is doing and how to stop them. It's our only chance to stop the economic decline.
$365,694,500,000: U.S. Merchandise Trade Deficit With China Hit Record in 2015
Why is only Trump mentioning China and the wall to block the illegals’ invasion of the USA?
So what is he doing now?
Ted the career government employee is acting like a petulant child seeking to cause mischief
