Glenn Beck calls for Cruz-Rubio ticket to take on Trump
The Hill ^ | 3/2/16 | Mark Hensch

Posted on 03/02/2016 11:52:03 AM PST by jimbo123

Radio host Glenn Beck is urging GOP presidential candidates Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio to team up to oppose Donald Trump.

Beck called for a ticket of “Ted Cruz for president, Marco Rubio as vice president,” on his radio show Wednesday, according to The Blaze. Beck has already endorsed Cruz for president.

“They should announce this and run with this. This should go all over the Internet. I think this is doable, and this is absolutely unstoppable.”

Beck said the candidates would have to commit to joining forces before Florida's primary May 15 to have a chance to stop Trump.

“Florida, they would win,” he said. "But if they don’t do it before the Florida election, then we lose it to Donald Trump. And all those delegates go to Trump.”

The radio host laid out a plan for other prominent GOP figures to align themselves with a Cruz-Rubio team.

“Say our Supreme Court nominee is Mike Lee,” Beck said, suggesting the Utah senator as a replacement for the late Justice Antonin Scalia.

“Rand Paul is going to be Treasury secretary. Ben Carson, we’re going to back you with everything we have to take Rubio’s Senate seat. How is that not a win for absolutely everybody?”

And the dems could pull the plug any time they wanted by shopping for a judge to declare them both ineligible.

The elitists have gotten pretty disgusting, deciding that if they can't control the nomination, they'll openly throw the election. What a disappointment Cruz is, sinking to this level!

Holy cr@p, Glenn, give it a rest. Trump is Moby Dick to you & you’re a pathetic version of Captain Ahab who was pretty goofy himself.

In either case, the white whale wins. Go back to selling gold and dried food & retreat into your bunker.

I think that if the other minor candidates drop out - well, Carson has already dropped out, so I guess it’s just
“candidate,” meaning Kasich - the next primaries would show which of them should be at the top of the ticket.

That said, I don’t see this happening. But this is such a crazy campaign, who knows?

All I know is that I’d vote for Adam’s off ox before voting for Trump.

I give him credit for inserting his insane self in this race.

He should be in a hospital.

Rubio is just a no-go for me in any situation.

Been saying that I was for Cruz, but seeing this crap has turned me off.
His speech revolted me and never went after Clinton, instead he wanted others to drop out so he could beat Trump, WTH. . Then he got all cozy at the debate with the establishment, open border Rubio

Cruz and Rubio are going to find out that they've ruled out any job in the administration for the next 4 years.

Before I saw Cruz's true colors, I thought USSC...like he could work with his former BFF, Roberts.

Well, DUH !!!

The inside the beltway guys will be closing ranks to protect the globalist GOPe.

Cruz was a nice carrot on a stick to keep the dupes pulling the cart but when push comes to shove, Cruz will do whatever it takes to protect the globalist elite just like the good Haaarvard attorney he is underneath his "outsider" costume.

Cruz would want an open borders, race-baiter like Rubio on his ticket?
It would just show that Cruz is for amnesty and not serious about immigration.


But Rubio is a rock ribbed conservative. Rush, the ACU and Heritage Foundation. Say so just like Cruz.

Why did Cruz promote Glenn Beck as a spokesman for his campaign?

Cruz needs to get rid of Beck as soon as possible.

The No NBC ticket. Maybe Jindal could join for a threesome. Nothing says ‘defending the Constitution’ like ignoring that inconvenient Article II, Section 1 stuff.

An insane idea. But consider the source.

Word has it that he's going to hold his breath until they agree.

And just think. This guy is the guy who is supposed to be on Cruz’s side, and introduces him on stage at tons of his events.

I can’t wait to say “I told you so” when Cruz goes full-blown transparent globalist stooge. Which might be really soon, after yesterday’s poor performance in the South, the only place Cruz was ever really viable.
