Nope. Not going to happen.

Plus they are competing for the same pool of Republican voters so if they both stay in the race Jeb Bush will get the nomination and Hillary Clinton will be our next President.

Nope.

Cruz is in this to win it, not to be a Democrat’s running mate.

Sigh.

It seems to me the Dems can just stay home ...

EVERY cabinet position is qualifiedly (is that a word?) present in the Republican line-up ... even Cristy ... Food Czar

Mark my words, it is going to be Cruz/Bush.

The establishment doesn’t want Trump. And if they can get rid of Trump, Cruz is next in line and there is no way they can eliminate him. Which means they need to make Cruz an offer he cannot refuse.

Putting Bush on the ticket as Veep is about as useful as it was for Obama to put Biden on the ticket. Doesn’t mean anything. But the establishment gets what it wants in a a Bush in 2008 and in the interim, Cruz is the perfect President to stop the madness.

Reagan/Bush all over again.

Hope so.

Trump could lead the charge up to a stronger nation and after Trump leaves, Cruz could help finish the rebirth of freedom and vitality of America by taking down the 80% unconstitutional portion of the $4 trillion federal government, re-establishing the Constitution as the Supreme Law of the Land, and giving this country back to the states and people.

Not without issues being raised as the democrats and hypocrites will do

and who needs that

Cruz is a JR. Senator who never built anything or made a payroll
Smart guy, good instincts, not ready to run this country esp given the economic hard times the next pres faces

Trump has made more progress on addressing tough issues in the past 3 months than Cruz or any of them have made to date
As of today he has earned lead sled dog

Long time to go however

I am not even sure why any man would want the job

Cruz/Walker

Still don’t trust Trump. His political donations to marxists, sympathetic mutterings for single payer & not mentioning the Constitution...troublesome.

Agree

Her selfish ditzy daughter took her off the national stage

But I think he’d have a role for her in his cabinet

You know the democrats will grow a conscience and become strict constitutionalists and throw it all into the courts

Hypocrites

But an effective stall

We do not need the distraction

If Cruz gets the nomination he gets to pick whoever he wants as VP. No reason he would pick Bush and no way the party establishment could make him.

Trump is 69, will be 70 in 2016

Cruz would be a fool to turn down VP

“Cruz/Lee is the team for me” has a nice ring to it.

“Cruz/West at their best” is also good.

>> Cristy ... Food Czar

ha.

He’d spend a lot of time huddling behind closed doors with his Undersecretary of Fried Donuts.

A member of the House of Lords ( Jeb) would never run for # 2

Unlike HW Bush

Cruz is no Ronald Reagan to be rewarded out of line after all the Bush dynasty has groomed this favored son to continue their destiny

President Trump is going to need Cruz in the US Senate to help clean out that sewer.

What do you think?

If Trump wanted to be mayor of NYC all he has to do is say the word

They are counting down Wilhelm’s days

Now, can Trump take California. Ohio, Texas and Florida after going online with his deportation plan? Are there still enough legals to outvote the illegals? Will Biden convince the senior citizens Trump will cut off their social security checks?
