As possibly the lone defender of Ted Cruz the Presidential candidate as Trump “Cruzed” to victory I just have to get my $.02 into this development.
Bottom line for me: Put Cruz in the Supreme Court. I believe he would do well as AG but so would Sessions or Rudy (who doesn’t want the job) and maybe this other guy that I never heard of.
But the Supreme Court Justice is forever. And Cruz if nothing else is a hard core Constitutional Conservative. The logical successor to Scalia hands down who would be the most solid defender of rights for decades.
Do it Donald. You are off to a great start. Keep it up. And, just for good measure, make sure you shove your Bannon selection down the throats of the Harry Reids and Nancy Pelosi’s of the world with a little extra force. And a little twist just for effect.
Again, Cruz will take a lesser Secretary position - give him Commerce or Energy - and then the special election puts Ravishing Rick in the interim seat, freezing out Abbott in 2018.
No Bush voted for Trump but George P. But of course you knew that.
Cruz, Romney, the Bushes, the NeverTrumpers. ALL must be persona non grata. And don't even let McCain and Graham inside the White House doors...EVER. NO mercy, NO forgiveness. Bury the traitors and move forward
Only if you smoked too much ganja, man.
Considering how the Senate GOP feels about Cruz, personally, I doubt he could get confirmed as Ambassador to Upper Volta.
Except that it would get him out of the senate and out of their hair.
You're smelling something else.
There is no love lost between the Bush camp and Cruz.
Not on the list. Never on the list.
"Ted Cruz not on Donald Trump’s list for Supreme Court picks" - Washington Times, 11/16/16
I hadn’t realized Sessions had been a US Attorney. He’s perfect.
please spear is the DC K street pr spin .
Cruz demanded this meeting .
The nerve .
this Traitorous snake would use that role to destroy Trump for the DC cheap express .
An evil
power hungry monster.
kick the viper to the curb
Got any? /s
The Cruz-bashers will be quite embarrassed and soon.
Cruz does not have temperament to bo on SCOTUS. That calls for someone who is likeable and persuasive. Ted had no friends in the Senate and would have none of the court.
...for Majority Leader.
Apparently, the smell is a little bit of the sweetleaf.
And Cruz if nothing else is a hard core Constitutional Conservative.

Except when it comes to what natural born citizen means.
From his perspective a child born to a Palestinian father and an American mother in Saudi Arabia is a natural born citizen eligible to be President and once that decision is rendered the natural born citizen clause is gutted for perpetuity.

Billionaires that want to restrict immigration????
I’d better take a big swig of scotch before I laugh and cry myself unconsious.
.
Don't get me wrong, Sessions is fine, but his Senate staff is 'leaky' - one too many 'embeds' in many of those Deep Southern staff crews...
“I want Cruz on SCOTUS NOW!!!”
Not in my country, brother.
