I have no idea whether this is true and would expect Paxton would have some say in the final choice. Ideally the case has been under development in secret for some time with Cruz contributing all along so he’s had time to become up to speed on all its issues. We don’t want anyone just winging this. But if Cruz does it I’d also expect his very best attempt. Cruz clearly still has presidential aspirations and is young enough to wait for them. Presuming he can overcome the oft here discussed issue of his eligibility, he has one more significant barrier to those dreams. The many Trump fans, especially early Trump fans, who became “never Cruzers” during the 2016 campaign. Time has shown they will not be easily converted, but delivering a winning SCOTUS case to rescue Trump’s second term might do it if anything could. He, Trump, and all of us, could sure use a home run here.
