While campaigning for Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) and Carly Fiorina in Indiana on Sunday, Glenn Beck told rally attendees that he thinks Fiorina, acting as vice president, might take on the role of Senate Majority Leader, so that in a Cruz White House “you wouldn’t need Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY)any more.”
Beck made his comments while greeting a group of rally attendees waiting in line outside the event venue.
After praising both Cruz and Fiorina as “the real deal,” Beck said, “I was someplace about a month ago with Carly. We were backstage and I said, ‘Are you familiar with the way the Senate used to run under Jefferson?’ She knew exactly what I was talking about, and she said, ‘That would require a vice president to be a real partner with the president.’”
Beck continued: “And what I think they are possibly thinking about doing is: Jefferson actually was the head of the Senate and actually took the role of the majority leader. So, you wouldn’t need Mitch McConnell any more. Jefferson when he was vice president, he moved all the legislation through the Senate. So, the White House really could get everything through without having to worry about the GOP, which would be good. It would be a real blessing.”
“And they are the constitutional scholars, all of them, that know how to do it,” he concluded.
Interestingly, Beck noted that this conversation with Fiorina took place “about a month ago,” which may have been around the time that he floated Fiorina as a potential VP for Cruz.
Just saying @CarlyFiorina I've been listening to you speak on the road with me and @tedcruz and you're killing it! You'd make a great VP…

It’s over Glenn.Over.Why don’t you run along and try to salvage what’s left of your company?
And how, pray tell, is that going to work? So Mitch McConnell hates Ted Cruz, and by proxy, Carly Fiorina, how do they propose to move legislation in the Senate? Do they think all 49 other Senators are going to be on board with what they propose? For Constitutional scholars, that seems little weak. It is the Legislature that enacts legislation.
Glenn Beck in Dreamland.
You’ll get a kick out of this:

Maybe it’s the Canadian way. I don’t know Canada that well. Just guessing.
What an idiot.
I couldn’t believe what I was seeing when I watched Beck and three (seemingly) adult men do this.
Beck dips his face in ground cheesies, Carly sings creepy songs to kids....I guess the craziness trickles down from the head crazy....
Nope. We’re pretty flaky up here, but what Crooze does is all Crooze.
What planetary dimension is this guy living in?
Sorry for getting that part wrong.
That is pretty funny.
Nice.I might have backed the end of the spreader into the booth first,then engaged the PTO to the pump.I hope the guy was a hog farmer.
LOL! Awesome. I remember a long time ago that actor Ethan Hawke made a movie with her and he said she was an absolute nightmare from hell to work with, constantly pulling this “Do you know who I am” attitude which seems to be the motto of all libs. “Will you CAWL the pohleese!” She’s freakin trespassing and she feels she is in the right.
Way back in late 2015 I made the suggestion that Trump and Cruz join forces, that Trump make Cruz his VP, and then “assign” him to the constitutional role of President of the Senate, which would oust McConnell as the de facto head of the Senate. Cruz could have done it, knowing the rules of the Senate and the Constitution, but Fiorina would be a joke in the role—if anything, it would make more sense to put Carly in the WH and Cruz in the Senate president’s chair. But that is all wasteful thinking, since Trump is going to be the nominee and Cruz is shrinking his future brand every day he continues attacking Trump rather than running against Hillary—he doesn’t even have to get out of the race, just show that he knows who the political enemies of America really are.
Hunh.
I didn’t know that Glenn Beck ate without the benefit of spoons and forks, or even fingers for that matter.
A quaint custom. Explains a lot.
