Trump: 'I'd have to think about' Cruz for Supreme Court

The Hill ^ | 5/2/2016 | Jesse Byrnes

Or at the top of the DOJ to flush out all the transgenders and other “impossible to fire” minorities the feds have been stocking up on there.

[tbw2]

Either Trump or Cruz, but not Kasich. That man is gaffe-tastic, Biden style.

[Mollypitcher1]

I agree to term limiting judges, but I do NOT agree with REWARDING a politician for selling out the Constitution to the Globalists. American Sovereignty is at stake. Cruz voteed for TPA. That’s enough!

[nopardons]

I want Cruz, his extremely disfunctional family, and everyone connected to him to just disappear and never be heard from/about ever again.

[Fai Mao]

Actually you missed the sarcasm which is a higher level of retort than the asinine cut downs that are the only thing Cruz supporters seem to understand.

First, Trumps sister is nearly 80 even if he wanted to suggest her she is too old.

Second, Trumps statement about her was made many years ago before he was running and appears to be the kind of general statement you say about a relative when you think it doesn’t matter.

Third, Trump is the ONLY CANDIDATE TO HAVE RELEASED NAMES OF PEOPLE THAT HE WOULD CONSIDER. GO LOOK THOSE UP. HIS SISTER WAS NOT ON THE LIST.

There are some legitimate issues that Trump needs to deal with and that could be discussed but Cruz supporters go for the cheap shot - the lie or the 1/2 truth every time.

[pogo101]

It’s satire. Look at his posting history.

[cornfedcowboy]

Yes. Trumps sister is ultra conservative. You got that right. Brilliant.

[navymom1]

A lot of people are starting to attempt to unite now that Trump is the presumptive nominee. Ted Cruz isn’t going to win either on a second or third ballot or even a third party run. He has burned his bridges without the help of a single trump supporter here at this forum.

You may not agree or like that fact but it is reality. Cruz is finished. If you are not happy here there is always Consistent Conservatives Forum, but I must warn you. Last time I was there the forum was more pro Trump than pro Cruz.

[Innovative]

Good answer by Trump.

I personally hope Cruz will not get onto the Supreme Court, for many reasons.

I also don’t think Cruz would want it either. This came about because some people though this would be a valuable consolation prize for him.

I think the country — and Cruz — will be better off without him on the SCOTUS.

[nopardons]

Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight.....he "cares" SO much about the Constitution that he is ILLEGALLY running for the president, even though in 20p12, he knew damned well that he was INELIGIBLE to hold that position!

"Conservative" ? No he isn't; he just lied and lied and fooled many people that he was one; though many have now woken up and see him for what and who he is.

[cornfedcowboy]

No way no how on Mike Lee. He supports Cruz. He is an idiot. All of us on FR know it too.

[doug from upland]

I did right after my response.

[jwalsh07]

I thought it was pretty clear. Maybe not. I will try again. It is currently impossible on FR to hold the following two thoughts: Cruz would make an excellent Justice and Trump would make an excellent POTUS. The two are mutually exclusive. Either you have to believe that Cruz is a globalist GOPe guy drenched in Goldman Sachs money and Trump is Ronald Reagan reincarnate or Cruz is Ronald Reagan reincarnate and Trump is a Manhattan liberal running the long con. No AND gates, just OR gates.

[bobo1]

My point was sarcasm also.

“asinine cut downs that are the only thing Cruz supporters seem to understand.”

Think so? I just got called an “A-hole”.

Freedom can only be achieved if all dissent is eliminated?

I know all about Trump’s sister and thank you for your kindness. I appreciate it.

President Hillary is totally unacceptable! Posted on ‎4‎/‎23‎/‎2016‎ ‎3‎:‎02‎:‎08‎ ‎PM by Jim Robinson Free Republic stands for God, family, country! America! "We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, ensure domestic Tranquillity, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this constitution for the United State of America." Securing the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity is our mission on FR. We cannot secure the blessings of liberty with Hillary in the White House. When Trump wins the lion's share of the primary votes, states and delegates and the establishment installs someone else as the candidate, you've handed the election to Hillary. Trump is the only anti-establishment candidate in the race and has won the lion's share of votes, states and delegates and is on track to continue amassing the lion's share of the votes, states and delegates by direct vote of the people. We the People have voted and are voting to finally wrest control of our government from the entrenched corrupt establishment, aka, the uni-Party. Cruz, Kasich, et al are mathematically eliminated and cannot win the nomination per the voters. They can attempt to re-wrest the nomination away from Trump and away from We the People only by corrupt establishment treachery at the convention. And that will split and destroy the party and guarantee a Hillary win. NeverTrump is a losing proposition and will lead to a loss of liberty and loss of country. This is totally unacceptable. After the corrupt establishment losing twice in a row to Marxist Obama, I'm damned tired of the corrupt establishment and damned tired of losing. If you are a NeverTrump type person, you are working against our purposes on FR, so please opus out now and log off and let us carry on with our mission in peace. Continue insulting us with 24/7 anti-Trump diatribes and insults, your opus will be assumed. We will unite behind our nominee and we will win this coming election (with or without you) and we will get a handle on this divided forum very soon. Hope you understand my position. By the way, Cruz's campaign still refuses to answer the question whether or not Cruz will support Trump if he's the nominee. He's taking the GOPe route of preferring Hillary over Trump. This is also totally unacceptable."

[Mollypitcher1]

ROTFL!!!!!!!!! My posts are very well received. What’s the matter, you jealous??

[navymom1]

As his own Vice Presidential Candidate said, he will say whatever he thinks he needs to say to win a vote.

[refreshed]

I agree with your post.

[PghBaldy]

Interesting points. You might have something there.

[nopardons]

Ronald Reagan wanted Trump to become a politician and run for president!

I knew Reagan, I worked on both of his two winning presidential campaigns, and Ted Cruz is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING AT ALL LIKE RONALD REAGAN !

Why should we believe that Cruz would make a good justice? He voted for the TPA, the CORKER BILL, is INSANE Glenn Beck's BFF and is joined at the hip with him and other crazies. I wouldn't trust Cruz on any court, let alone SCOTUS!

OTOH, none of the above falls into the allusion you posted.
