Senator Cruz in exchange for his support is wanting to be named to the Supreme Court if an opening occurs while Mr. Trump is president. Mr. Trump does not see this as an issue and a small price to pay to bring Sen. Cruz his fundraisers, donors and staff on board

“Mr. Trump does not see this as an issue and a small price to pay to bring Sen. Cruz his fundraisers, donors and staff on board”

Why would Cruz turn his organization over to Trump? Not sure Trump has anything credible to offer Cruz. VP is a mugs game. Supreme Court depends on Trump winning the general, keeping his promise to nominate Cruz, and getting Cruz through a Borking (would require Senate R’s to exercise nuclear option). That is, any promise re Supreme Court has about a 5% chance of actually happening.

Bluntly, I think 2016 is over and HRC is president. I’ll hold my nose, vote for Trump, and hope there is something left worth fighting for in 2020. If there is, Cruz still has the organization and is the presumptive nominee so long as he doesn’t deal with either Trump or the GOP-E this year.
