Ben Carson has a plan for Ted Cruz now that the Texas senator has dropped out of the GOP presidential race: attorney general, then Supreme Court justice under a Trump administration.
When Fox News Radios John Gibson asked Carson on Wednesday whether it would be smart for presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump to offer Cruz a position on the Supreme Court, he said yes.
I think he would be terrific on the Supreme Court, or I think he would be a terrific attorney general. Or he could be both, Carson said. He could be attorney general first, you know, go ahead and prosecute Hillary, and then go on the Supreme Court.......

I trust Carson to vet character and Trump to match talents to job.
GAG or Supreme Court pick. Sounds good.
Yes, I did ABSOLUTEY you can have it. No attribution necessary. Anything it takes to keep the other half of the greatest crime couple in the history of the republic out of the office.
No way should Cruz be anywhere near Donald.......we’ll always be worried when Cruz will go ballistic.
with how Cruz just compromised himself or allowed others to persuade him to compromise himself, I hope he gets no where near SCourt or anything out side his state of Texas, and maybe they will kick him to the curb too.
You don’t treat people like he has and then be rewarded.
At this point, I wouldn’t trust Ted to not go after President Trump and let Hillary slide.
Something I would have never said 2 months ago
I’d love to see Guiliani in there.
I should have read the comments first.
but you said basically the same thing. Only better.
Cruz needs to have a come to Trump moment and throw all his delegates Trump’s way.
“Giuliani for AG, Cruz for SCOTUS.”
Amen!
After what he’s done the last couple of months, I wouldn’t trust him with anything.
I don’t think Carson should even be promoting this.
maybe you have to decide -
are you a trump supporter now?
or
are you still trying to squeeze Ted in somewhere?
(seems like your doing the second, but that will be Trump’s decision to make)
Once upon a time, I thought Cruz for USSC....but he would just try to run over everyone just like he did/does in the Senate....And him and Roberts together??
Why does bringing in Cruz supporters in any way mean entertaining ideas of what position Cruz may get selected for?
He’s still senator let him get Back To Work and down the road see what comes up.
I’m with others on this. Cruz allowed himself to play way wacko and dirty.
I thought it was silly early on when people were commenting how all the drop outs could fill all these positions. Makes no sense at all.
“I like Christie for AG. Hes a former prosecutor that I think can get the job done nicely.”
I agree. At this point in time I would take Christie over Cruz. Cruz said he would not go after Bill Clinton. To weak for me.
He could be attorney general first, you know, go ahead and prosecute Hillary, and then go on the Supreme Court.
Wouldn’t he have to arrest and deport himself first?
“Id love to see Guiliani in there.”
Rudy will work.
“I dont think Carson should even be promoting this.”
Trial balloons?
