Maybe you did not notice but the participants at the closed-door meeting between Trump and the RNC looked pleased after it. That indicates they came to a deal.

The most likely deal is they get to pick the VP, and they will let Trump win. However the act is to make it look like Cruz will lose this gracefully and with honor thus helping to pull the crusaders back in to the GOP for the general.

Tom Cotton attended one of these Elites strategy meetings to figure out how to stop Trump (was it the meeting on the island? There were several that week so I get them confused.)

Either way, if he participated in it, he's gone over to the dark side.

Just like Trump says, they talk a good game to get elected, how they are going to stand up for the people. Then they get to Washington, and see the trappings of the oligarchy, the wealth, the graft, the gold, the perks, the parties, the women---and they say "I will make sure I do whatever is necessary to NEVER leave this place!"

Sorry Ted.

LOL. You are correct albeit not intentionally. Ted is cut out for the job he will soon have. He would never be satisfied with playing second fiddle to some ex-TV personality.

Congratulations in advance to President Ted Cruz, winner of the GOP nomination on the third ballot. Same as Lincoln.

I seriously doubt Trump would let the RNC idiots to pick his VP.

I’d take Democrat Joe Lieberman over “Republican” Lindsey Graham.

Lieberman is one of the few politicians who still loves his country more than his party.

The good news in this latest statement by Trump is - Even though it sounds like he is describing Harry Reid for VP . . . It means he has eliminated one of his earlier named possible VP candidates - Kanye West.

This TN thing was already in the pipeline before the meeting.

I did see Tom Cotton’s name on that list for Sea Island. I was disappointed, but wondered if they were trying to reel him in and was hoping he wouldn’t bite. Sigh. Something sure does happen when people get to Washington.

Issa has said terrible things about Mr. Trump. Makes that choice unlikely.

Who’s willing to have their lives deconstructed, ruined even, by accepting the nomination for VP of the United States? We’re so horrible to each other in this political process. Who would want the job?
