The problem with appointing an AG to SCOTUS is that he would have to recuse himself from many important cases that come up during his first couple of years on the Court. If I were Trump, I’d appoint Cruz to SCOTUS now, let Gov. Abbott replace him in the Senate with another conservative, and name someone as AG that I wouldn’t be thinking of naming to SCOTUS in the foreseeable future.
Why would you want someone who acts deranged on the Supreme Court? I sure don’t.

I think you have a good point there.
The going is going to be rough. The MSM are in an uncontrollable rage over their defeat, and will be on the hunt for red meat.
