Donald Trump on Tuesday named Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) when asked about his possible running mate in 2016.
“Ted Cruz is now agreeing with me 100 percent,†he said when asked about his vice presidential pick, according to Lifezette.
“Well, I like him,†Trump told radio host Laura Ingraham during her broadcast. "He’s backed everything I’ve said.†Unlike most of the Republican presidential hopefuls, Cruz has mostly refrained from attacking Trump, even appearing alongside him at a rally in September against the Iran nuclear deal.
The pair has also struck similar tones on topics such as border security and illegal immigration.
Still, Trump suggested late Monday that he will turn on Cruz if he becomes a threat to his front-runner status.
“If he catches on, I guess we’ll have to go to war,†he told host Joe Kernen on CNBC’s “Squawk Box.â€

THE GLADIATOR! Marvelous, Miss Jane! A cute guy with a HUUUUuuge footprint!
Trump wouldn’t be making the same mistake as Reagan, agreeing to a corrupt GOPe Bush-type to “balance” the ticket.
Why does Trump...? Why does Trump have to act like he owns the presidency.....?
Because he can.
Dearest, do the math. It looks stunning for Trump. And, it’s November. This is the way people sound when they are smoking their competition.
If things change, you will be the first to know. But, who smokes their competition like this? Trump is at 37.8 NATIONALLY, in the Reuters 5 Days Rolling Poll, Carson is 14.3, Cruz is at 7%.
Because he is a puerile narcissist. But I digress...
Why did the rioters destroy Baltimore City ?
Because they can...
Now you’re cooking with gas. Correct. :)
Remember ?
They also said that the Titanic was “ unsinkable “ that even God could not sink the Titanic....
Pride goes before a fall....
Don’t even have my own stove to cook with, but where I am living it’s electric.
Trump has been much stronger than Cruz on illegal immigration. Cruz would hardly mention deportation a month ago.
“Ted Cruz is now agreeing with me 100 percent”
What a demented, idiotic moron.
Ted Cruz was a conservative when Donny come lately was licking Obama and Clinton butts clean.
This line alone should show Trump for the faker he is.
Ted Cruz was my choice until I discovered devil in the details of his tax plan. Read the following:
“Ted Cruz has unveiled his Simple Flat Tax plan that includes a single low, low personal income tax with a single rate of 10%. He also wants to eliminate the federal corporate income tax and the employee payroll tax, and replace them with a 16% Business Flat Tax. But according to Larry Kudlow and the Tax Foundation, he is really talking about a value added tax, a VAT. Here is what the Tax Foundation says about the Cruz plan.”
Thanks for that link.
Just look what the terrible VAT tax has done to Europe.
Always starts low and WILL grow. Our government has never met a tax it didn’t increase.
No VAT tax, ever!! This is what the Dems have been trying for years to get.
ROTFL
IBTZ
:) Oh. Well... you were still correct. :D
I see Trump as a patriot. He would show respect and honor history and tradition. It’s the way he was raised, and the way he raised his children.
PERFECT! Trump can do 1 or 2 terms, then hand of to Cruz. Best outcome possible I think everyone will agree!
They’re all running for Vice President EXCEPT Trump. And I’m still not 100% sure that Trump is even running for president though I sure hope he’s for real.
<><> He beat abortion Barbie handily.
<><> Abbott took on the lesbian sheriff WRT sanctuary cities.
<><> Abbott is a leader who gets things done; he lead 26 AG's in the
successful legal fight to get Obama's heinous amnesty EO's out on hold.
Texas Gov Greg Abbott would be an outstanding VP choice.
