Cruz definitely wouldn’t wilt under the pressure of a confirm hearing, that is definitely a plus. He would fight. Fortunately there is no Teddy Kennedy and a hostile majority this time.
Cruz can fight and he can intellectually dominate the court for decades.
He could be Chief Justice in about 10-15 years and stay there for a total of 30-40.
Cruz is the best pick for this job.
I know he can be a weasel and liar, but he’s the best we’ve got for this spot.
I’m also assuming Trump will get one possibly two more choices during his Presidency.
