Bingo! That’s why I think 8 years as VP will serve Cruz well and position him for 8 years of his own at the helm. Just imagine - 16 years non interrupted without a D near the WH. Please God - let it be so!
If that came true, then a Cruz administration, even after four years of Trump, would be so empowered that we could indeed have a constitutional revolution that would astound us all. Right now we have a Patton out there, crushing the enemy and at times slapping some soldiers. It’s an absolute emergency. With a calmer situation an Eisenhower will do fine.
