And if Cruz had proposed this, you’d be all in favor of it.
No, I would oppose this no matter who proposed it. I don’t support everything that Cruz has done and he would lose my support entirely if he had proposed this.
I'm fascinated to think you might actually believe this. First, let's be clear:
1) If Cruz suggested anything remotely like this, I would immediately suspect he got his law degree at Trump University.
2) The whole reason people are staying true to Cruz despite the propaganda and defamation leveled against him is precisely because we want somebody we know will both honor and understand the US Constitution, and the President's role in defending it.
So no, it would be a deal-breaker, because it would:
a) reflect serious ignorance of the law, the Constitution, and the role of the executive branch, and
b) be a complete betrayal of the Cruz brand, conservative constitutionalist. Trump's brand is entirely different. It's just, "Trust me. I'm smarter than everybody else, and I know how to get my way." He can give lip service to the Constitution, but he's not branded on it like Cruz.
But again, my real curiosity is that you even suggest this "moral equivalence," between Cruz and Trump fans, as if this issue was entirely driven by the team jersey, and not by legal and moral substance. It seems to suggest you do not understand what drives the pro-Cruz base. If you did, you would already know what I've been saying. Interesting.
