We need this election - period. I want Cruz as VP - that will give him 4-8 years as a sitting VP, and if Trump is elected and does half the things he wants - that will put Cruz in a prime spot to win the presidency then. He will be seasoned. And, God forbid, if anything should happen to President Trump - who better to take the reins of the government than Cruz? Besides as VP, Cruz would be the chief officer over the Senate and that will give him a bully pulpit to get some good things done through the Congress. Hehe - that should make RINO heads explode!

That is exactly my analysis, Cat. We’re on the same wave length.

President Trump Cabinet

Jefferson Sessions as Vice President

Department of State, (return INS.) John Bolton
Department of Justice Rep. Steve King
Department of Treasury, (includes former Homeland Security Customs) Carl Icahn (Offered and Accepted)
Department of War, (change the name back.) Include former VA function Gen. James Mattis
Department of Interior, (includes the legitimate functions only of former Dept. of Transportation, Dept. of Homeland Security Border Patrol, and Energy Departments) Gov. Palin
Department of Labor and Commerce Herman Cain

This proposed model has the President directly managing seven subordinates which is optimal.

Department of Homeland Security ELIMINATE
Department of Education ELIMINATE as proposed by The Donald, 9/23/25 at a Columbia, SC Town Hall with Sen. Tim Scott.
Department of Energy ELIMINATE
Department of Health and Human Services ELIMINATE
Department of Housing and Urban Development ELIMINATE
Department of Veterans Affairs ELIMINATE
Department of Agriculture ELIMINATE
Department of Transportation ELIMINATE

On Fox news Sunday, 10/18/15 Trump said he would cut funding for EPA and Dept. of Ed.

In non-cabinet level jobs

Sheriff Clarke should be FBI Director
Michelle Bachman as IRS Commissioner under Secretary Carl Icahn in Treasury
Admiral James A. Lyons as Undersecretary of War Navy Branch.
LTC Allen West as Undersecretary of War Army Branch.
Lynnette Diamond Hardaway and Rochelle Silk Richardson would be great as President Trumps Press Secretaries.

Marsha Blackburn, Speaker of the House
Ted Cruz as Senate Majority Leader.

“We need this election - period. I want Cruz as VP”

Absolutely! We need a succession path that excludes any more RINOs! Just look and what being forced by the GOPe to take that WF GHWB did to the country! It brought us Slick for 8 years, followed by “W” for eight, followed by the half-breed for another 8! Twenty-eight years of $hit “leadership,” a third of my lifetime! Just think where we would be today if a Trump or a Cruz had followed Ronnie! As it was, we got a succession of “it’s my turn” worthless GOPe turds who didn’t even win.

VPs don’t become prez.
Cruz is far superior in many ways. Walking encyclopedia of history, constitution, etc. His campaign seems quite well run. I heard him with my own eyes answer the why not amnesty question: It is not fair to Americans and legal immigrants.
Despite the hype he is so reasoned and reasonable when answering questions. I have heard him reframe the question before answering often.
Americans will get to see the real Cruz despite everything the GOP, Dems, and the entire media including FNC and conservative gibberish columnists,outside of talk radio. And my bet is he wins it all.
I think he would be a fool to take VP though I see why you and others say so.
A mind like his needs to be put to the best use possible. If not prez surely not VP.

The VP is a dead-end job unless the President dies. I want Cruz on the Supreme Court where he could influence the future of our country for decades. Maybe he can cut a deal with Trump.

If you think Trump/Cruz will make RINO heads explode, wait until Sarah Palin gets a cabinet position.
