During an interview for Face the Nation, host John Dickerson asked Republican presidential candidate, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) if he would consider accepting the vacant spot on the Supreme Court after the sudden death of Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia. This comes after Republican presidential candidates and Republican members of the senate have vowed not to approve anyone President Obama nominates during his last year in office.
"That is not a job I'm interested in." Cruz said and added, "The job I'm interested in is appointing 3, 4, 5 Supreme Court justices, is defending the constitution."
The Texas senator vowed that as president he would reverse the damages done by Barack Obama and that he would be "faithful and vigorous defending the constitution."

I don't think they are laughing at Wharton - they are laughing at Trump. That's what happens to clowns.
My understanding is that Cruz also turned down the roll of Damien in the new series. He has the look and the style - he would have been perfect.
He could also play Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, given the ball on the end of his nose.
He’s got options, except being the next POTUS.
I’ll agree that Trump is the main target, but I’ve seen people scorn Wharton as well, arguing that Trump couldn’t have made it at Harvard or wherever.
HARVARD IS A JOKE!!!!!! a Bastion of LIBERAL PROPAGANDA!!!! GIVE ME A BREAK!!!!
I’m fairly sure it’s Harvard’s liberal cred that convinces them it’s a significantly better school than Wharton. I don’t know how else to explain that belief, anyhow.
