Ted Cruz and Donald Trump might campaign together

Could Cruz be looking at the second spot on a Trump ticket? Say it ain’t so.

Tagline.

I’ll say it again, you don’t want to WASTE a great talent like Cruz on a veep spot. He needs to be AG and head up the indictment squad against Holder, Cankles, Lerner, and all the rest.

[TADSLOS]

What's that choking noise? It's the GOPe policy wonks and pundit crowd having seizures over the prospect of Cruz and Trump campaigning together.

[basil]

That wouldn’t be a bad spot for him, either…….

[Vision]

Can you imagine America after 16 years of Cruz with some or all responsibility of leadership?

Game changing.

Just a suggestion:

Bring Sarah Palin on board this train in some capacity.

[Thorliveshere]

Interesting. I’m liking this.

[TalBlack]

Trump may sense his limitations and he wants some high voltage talent near to hand. Latching on to Cruz among others is what I’d do.

Big BUMP to that!!

I think she is ready to go.

I think it’s a hoot whether it comes to fruition or not. Will get lots of mileage out of just the mention. Wonder when they will start getting questions about it and what Cruz’s response will be. Trump and his team are just leaving them in the dust in the “wonder what would happen if we try....” department. If they do campaign together looks like they might have to lease something like a football stadium wherever they appear.

Hide and watch what happens next!

My prayer is that I live long enough to see Valerie Jarrett escorted to prison. She is evil personified.

[Chode]

she could prolly write her own ticket

[editor-surveyor]

I knew that Trump would have to shift gears when Hildabeast began her nosedive.

This is something that will have to be seen to be understood, for sure.

It may lead to an early death for the Bush candidacy.

Essentially a ceremonial role, except for critical ties.

I view this as Trump bulldozing a path for Ted to Cruz to victory.

[Yosemitest]

"MIGHT" is the key word in that commentary..

[MeshugeMikey]

It must have been awfully painful for Los Hebster campaigning with that Fork...sticking in his side these last few months....

[AustinBill]

No way would Trump kneecap himself by announcing he'd step down before even being elected. But I agree that Cruz on the ticket would be the ultimate "finishing school" for him to step in as POTUS after Trump. No way can Cruz carry the "Reagan democrats" at this stage. Cruz is brilliant and would be a great president, but the country as a whole isn't ready for him yet. We need a bulldog like Trump to take on the special interests that have corrupted the political system.

As Trump is fond of pointing out, he knows how the current system works so who better to dismantle it. You need an insider to smoke out the string-pullers and cut those strings for good. That, more than anything, would be his main mission. Once that job is done, then Cruz can help repair and restore the constitutional structures that will protect the integrity of the Republic for decades to come.

Restore the Rule of Law and it will be said that this generation looked into the abyss and turned back, restoring the American dream.
