Sen. Ted Cruz Spotted In Trump Tower

Sen. Ted Cruz Spotted In Trump Tower

Posted By Betsy Rothstein On 5:14 PM 11/15/2016 In | No Comments

Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) — a.k.a. “Lyin’ Ted” — was spotted visiting Trump Tower on Tuesday.

According to a Trump transition team pool report, “Cruz managed to sneak into the tower without any of us seeing him (which is easy to do and often done), but I will update everyone if we learn more.”

A Cruz spokeswoman released a statement about the visit.

She said Cruz, who ultimately backed Trump, was there visiting with President-elect Donald Trump to help him achieve his goal: to “drain the swamp.”

In other words, could this mean a possible cabinet post for Lyin’ Ted?

SCOOP: Trump is discussing TED CRUZ for AG

I hope so ... Cruz would be excellent as Attorney General; he definitely has the experience needed.  I can't think of anyone better qualified to drain the swamp than Ted!

Cruz visiting Trump Tower is being reported also by CNN.  Cruz reiterated that he plans on running for re-election in 2018 and is NOT interested in being a Supreme Court justice.  My hunch however, is if he is offered the Attorney General or Solicitor General of the United States he will take it.

Well since Donny is putting Rudy as Sec of State, he will probably make an equally bizzare move and put Ted as HHS Sec.

Has it been confirmed that Rudy will be Sec'y State?? Carson didn't want the position and Cruz would be wise to bow out.  Who wants to be responsible for fixing the Obamacare debacle?

From Bloomberg News:

http://www.bloomberg.com/politics/articles/2016-11-16/ted-cruz-said-to-be-considered-by-trump-for-attorney-general

Ted Cruz Considered by Trump for Attorney General


EXCERPT:

President-elect Donald Trump is considering nominating Texas Senator Ted Cruz to serve as U.S. attorney general, according to a person familiar with the matter.
Cruz, 45, was at Trump Tower in New York on Tuesday. When approached by reporters on his way out, Cruz said the election was a mandate for change but didn’t say he was under consideration for a job.

Cruz unsuccessfully sought the Republican presidential nomination. He and Trump were at odds during the primary, viciously attacking one another. Trump nicknamed Cruz “Lyin’ Ted.” Cruz didn’t endorse Trump during a speech at the Republican National Convention in Cleveland. In September, relations between the two men seemed to improve when Cruz said he would vote for Trump.

MORE HERE FROM HOUSTON CHRONICLE:

http://www.chron.com/news/politics/article/Reports-speculate-Cruz-may-be-considered-for-10617083.php

Reports speculate Cruz is being considered for Trump's attorney general

EXCERPT:

Reports circulated on Tuesday saying President-elect Trump may be considering former nemesis Ted Cruz for attorney general.

Bloomberg News cited an unnamed source in its short report about the Texas senator, and Jennifer Jacobs, a Bloomberg political reporter, tweeted the "scoop" on Tuesday night.
The Associated Press reported that Cruz attended meetings at Trump Tower in New York, but he declined to provide details of what he discussed with Trump and his team.

You need to flush logic and reasoning out the window. The new Donny paradigm is nonsense and insanity.

SCOOP: Trump is discussing TED CRUZ for AG

This would be the first Conservative thing that Donald Trump has ever done in his entire life.
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.

-Dwight Eisenhower-


"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."

What would be the repercussions to Cruz' political career for attempting to prosecute the Clinton gang?

If he did not prosecute, could Trump point the finger at Cruz for letting them off the hook?

Far be it from me to know the inner workings of the Trump mind, but my hackles rose just a bit when I read "AG".  Hopefully I am being overly suspicious.

No one is going to prosecute Hillary. They are "good people".

There is no earthly way that anybody can be overly suspicious when it comes to Trump.

Ted Cruz would be a great attorney general but he would have to abandon his run for Senate... or would he?  Maybe he could take the post for two years.  I still think we need him in the Senate.

If Trump were to pick Cruz both parties would be shaking in their boots... So that very likely means Cruz won't be picked.

I usually keep my posts brief, but for once, I feel I need to elaborate a bit further...

I have been one of Cruz' biggest supporters, even back into his senatorial primary.  In fact, he spoke to a relatively small group of us during the primary, and I got to ask several questions and comments during that visit.  At the time, I found the perfect politician in ideological terms.  He hit each issue like a nail.  Absolutely, perfect.  He also was warm and genuine, and truly cares for this country, and conservative values.  I am also proud of his record as senator, as in many ways he has stood alone versus the criminal democrats, and the turn coat RINO slugs.  That principle has sadly painted him as a villain.  And undeservedly so.

With that, I thought that Cruz was the perfect POTUS candidate, and fought the orange horde as they did their best to demonize and destroy this honorable man and his family.  It help lead me to a disgust of Trump that lingers in me today.  With that and consequences of this election, I have however come to the conclusion that as ideologically perfect Cruz is, he lacks the social skills, and Political timing /savvy needed to reach the zenith of POTUS.

Now....  where to put to use the best conservative we have.  IMO here is the rank of where Cruz could do the best for the country.

1. Senator Majority Leader- Unfortunately his undue unpopularity would never allow
2. SCOTUS Justice- This is where Cruz needs to be the next 40 years.  Too many GOP appointed justices have veered left after appointment.  Only Cruz will steadfast provide the reliable conservative voice that Scalia provided.
3. DOJ Secretary- Set the agenda of the lower courts the next four years?  Yeah that would work.
4. Remain as senator, and be a conservative obstructionist.
5. AG -  Prosecutory aspects are not in his wheelhouse.

And btw, I still trust Trump about as far as I could throw him.

I display the Confederate Battle Flag in honor of my great great great grandfathers who spilled blood at Wilson's Creek and Shiloh.  5 others served in the WBTS with honor too.
