If I were Trump, I would be talking up what a GREAT SC Justice Cruz would make. Cruz is as close to cloning Scalia as we can get.
Trump needs to build a bridge to the Cruz people. It the Art of the Deal, give something to get something.
He started already. said Cruz was going to stop lying, and Cruz would feel better about himself for it. Now it's up to Cruz to start working on that bridge.
I think Trump knows that folks don’t trust CRuz....for President, or as SCJ.
I don't see how that's possible, after Trump's disgusting behavior, day after day, week after week, the last eight months. Trump has alienated so many people. It's who he is.
“Trump needs to build a bridge to the Cruz people. It the Art of the Deal, give something to get something.”
He’ll build a bridge to the cruz supporters who are reachable. Alas, the foaming at the mouth cruznadians are not reachable; they’re zealots and demand a 100% or they pick up their marbles and walk away. I doubt that he’ll waste much time with the cruznadians when there are so many more rational people who haven’t been voting, but can be reached much more easily.
The zealots will make themselves irrelevant. They’ll squawk and make all sorts of dramatic pronouncements about the eeeeevil Trump. And In the end, they’ll just be background noise.
