The only issue in my mind about a Trump/Cruz ticket is how the Dems will react. Will they file suit to block Cruz from assuming office? It’s a tough one to call. I wish we could get a court to rule on Cruz’s eligibility.
If nothing else, Trump should have a quiet meeting with Cruz and offer him a SCOTUS seat. There would be no issues that way. If the Senate won’t confirm him, he could always do a recess appointment.
I don’t want Cruz on the SC yet. He needs to stay in the senate to keep at least some balance of power against any further destruction to the constitution.
“Will they file suit to block Cruz from assuming office?”
Absolutely. There’s NO question that the Dems will overturn the whole election if Cruz were to beat Hillary in the general.
Team Cruz has got to know this. Obviously, they’re confident they will beat a court challenge over his eligibility, but I think that borders on insanity. At best, it’s a dangerous gamble, especially considering the current makeup of the Supreme Court.
