Told ya! And I have said it for four months. Cruz will make a great President after he spends a term or two in a Trump administration.

He could spend two terms as VP two as POTUS and twenty years as a Supreme Court Justice and still retire before 80!

If it ain’t Trump/Cruz, myself and many like me will be voting third party or staying home, and Hitlery or Bernie will be elected. Make the right choice, my dearest GOP friends: Trump/Cruz 2016

Could Cruz serve both as VPOTUS and AG?

Damn, I’d like him in a place where he can clean out the DC cesspool and throw a few traitorous jerks in jail.

If Cruz can’t beat Trump, I’d actually prefer Allen West as Trump’s VP. Cruz would be better utilized as AG or on the SC.

I thought Cruz would be best as senate leader at least de facto

But this vp needs to be someone that will move into pres spot later. Also keep the Donald in line with the constitution. It’s perfect. They’re both totally motivated. The gimmes are very motivated to keep the gravy train coming - and that’s just the GOP elites ha

While my preference is Cruz, Trump has some characteristics that we may need right now.

Trump is a no-nonsense “leader.” He doesn’t want to play the games.

Most people in politics are there because they enjoy the game, and they don’t really care much about the end. They enjoy playing the means, and many times the means are more important than then ends. Dinner, cocktails, parties, schmoozing with other elites and hollywood, oh what fun. This is why we have a democrat and a GOPe/RINO one party. Both groups are leftist liberals that enjoy being part of the game and enjoy the processes that are involved.

Cruz doesn’t want to play the game, neither does Trump. But Cruz has been in the game and is somewhat stuck by the game process rules. He doesn’t necessarily know how to get out of the game. But has been very good at struggling within, such as his exposure with Boehner, and others.

Trump hasn’t been in the game, and doesn’t necessarily even know the rules. He doesn’t care to know the rules, doesn’t want to be part of the process, and doesn’t want to play the game. And this is why he makes it clear he is self-funding. He is owned by no one. No man owns Trump. This makes Trump both very good and very scary. Many people are afraid that he might run amok on the constitution. A valid concern.

So a Trump/Cruz ticket right now would be good. Cruz will learn a lot about how to not play the game and how spot the process failures and also learn how to lead through them. Cruz is young and will be president next.

Once Trump filed his financials, I knew he was in for the win.
I knew he would make a strong run but never imagined it would be such a wave as it is.

I predicted a month or so ago that he would be the nominee, short of RNC backstabbing.

Even though I am in the Cruz cheering section, I appreciate Trump and all he has accomplished.

If Ted doesn’t get the win I want Trump with a Trump/Cruz ticket in the general.

The amount of ballot fraud needed to defeat them would be so evident I don’t think even Hillary! and the Kenyan combined could pull it off.

We live in interesting and dangerous times friends.
Interesting and dangerous times.

Short of a Trump/Cruz inauguration in 2017 we will need the direct intervention of God to maintain the nation.

If Trump is the nominee, he will need Cruz as his VP to really motivate the evangelical base. With that team, it would be a huge landslide.
