Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) on Wednesday touted his Republican colleague Sen. Mike Lee (Utah) as the "best choice" to fill the Supreme Court vacancy created by Justice Anthony Kennedy's retirement announcement.

"I think the single best choice President Trump could make to fill this vacancy is Sen. Mike Lee," Cruz said on Fox News shortly after Kennedy's announcement. "I think he would be extraordinary."

I disagree. I hear Lee hasn’t been too “Trump-friendly” lately, until, that is, this opening in the SC popped up...now he wants to play patty-cake with the President.

I don’t trust him.

Cruz has been great in the senate- He was not presidential material... But he’s been helpful to Trump since the election.

He is far from a ‘dirtbag’

Has Lee ever sat on the bench?
What experience does he have as a jurist?

"Tell us about the time. Tell us about the time you stood with Jeb Bush and Paul Rino and told Donald Trump to step down in October 2016. And then you didn't even vote for Trump in the general. Hahaha. Tell us your mindset."

If LYIN’ TEDDYKINS says it, then it is THE worst thing that the president could do! After all, Lee IS a damned 3NEVERTRUMPER arsehole, who voted for MacMuffin and didn’t even know a damned thing about him.

LOL...Glenn probably has already sworn Lee in as a Justice, just as he swore in LYIN’ Ted as president, during the primary season.
