Here’s what I want to happen.
I want Cruz as POTUS, but I think he needs to ride in as Trump’s VP.
I think that Trump could increase his lead dramatically by announcing a partnership with Cruz.
Trump runs for the nomination, Cruz steps aside and implores his followers to join team Trump.
Trump/Cruz announce that Trump will serve two years and then turn the presidency over to Cruz who could theoretically then serve 10 years as POTUS.
I’ll bet two years would be plenty for Trump, he just want’s to win and put the country back on course.
So Trump does his best for two years and a day and then goes back to his business empire.
Cruz takes over and brings in a solid conservative as his VP [perhaps Palin, perhaps not]
All this would cause an uproar in American politics..nothing like it has ever been attempted before. It would have the effect of consolidating the votes for Trump and Cruz and also any supporters of the VP choice of Cruz after he assumed the presidency.
None of this is illegal, but it is very unorthodox.
It would catch both the democrats and the GOPee on the back foot.
Call me crazy but I think it would play well with the voters.
Think of it. A consolidation of the support for three people and all the money needed to run a modern campaign...heck, if you could get several popular figures to agree to accept cabinet positions you could bring in yet more support. Run as a team.
Trump could buy an hour of TV time and announce that he, Cruz and the others would be announcing something big... imagine the audience!
Dangerous times call for innovative solutions.
You’re not crazy, just hopeful. Hope gets us through.
