Nope, pretty sure he's committed to 2020 at this point, following in the footsteps of St. Reagan in 1976 and all that poo poo.

No. If the impossible happens, Romney will slide in there as a placeholder, then Cruz will appear again in 2020 because conservatism once again will have been failed.

Just a reminder that Cruz is going to have a fair amount of power at this convention and his band of assholes have chosen this year to make a big deal out of attacking trans people and trying to push through a bunch of gently caress you fags religious liberty laws that the business company hates.

As much as they hope to be able to run on party platform instead of Trump their party platform is mostly likely at a minimum contain some completely odious and big business unfriendly attacks on the LGBT community among others that they would probably otherwise like to distract from.

I'm sure by now Manafort has pulled him aside and said, "look Trump, by attacking the son of legal immigrants who worked his way up to a prestigious position fighting drug cartels as a federal judge, you're attacking a portrait of the American Dream so rosy that it's what you put in children's books" so I can only assume he's fully aware of what he's doing and is plowing ahead anyway

I assume he figures the press will turn to favor his point of view like they have previously when the outrage died down, but I doubt they're going to do much to bash a federal judge in defense of a man who said he'd strip the 1st amendment just to sue papers who said mean things about him.

I mean poo poo, J-Rube is WithHer now and for all the talk about how Clinton is trying to bring in disaffected Republicans (she is) by selling out values (she isn't), it really just looks like Clinton is sticking to her guns and some of the right is just using her as a prop to prove their outrage, which is fine if it means they aren't voting Trump

Good job on Trump who is effectively being attacked on being a fascist on citing a former AG who resigned under scandle for numerous controversies including supporting torture, warrantless wiretaps on US citizens and firing numerous prosecutors over political reasons.

The RNC platforms are going to be 90% Cruz delegates and Serious Business Men making the sort of platform points they would've gotten under Cruz, and Trump will nod and smile and say, "yeah okay sure, that's fine. It's fine" and then the next day start saying the opposite and it'll be fine because Trump is by no means bound to what the RNC platform is determined to be.

GOP policy is now entirely in the hand of The Orange One and it changes every single day, and a reporter can make it whatever they want just by asking him about it in a certain way

He was "fired" by the Trump campaign late last year and then proceeded to get booked on cable shows all the time as a "former Trump aide" where he proceeded to kiss Trump's rear end for five minutes.

Yeah this seems to be a standard method when sacking a useful minion. Retain some usefulness by the minion being a mouthpiece for you on cable news. This is what happened to the guy from the Cruz campaign who got "fired" over the deception about Carson getting out of the campaign, I think his name was Rick Tyler? Spent the rest of the primary shilling for Cruz on cable news until Cruz quit.

Desperation, Trump is wrong on this, important people are rightfully alienating themselves on this with Trump because he is so clearly wrong, he's getting relentlessly attacked on it with no end in sight and this was the only life raft offered to him.

This was a setup from The Hill and Trump took the bait because he had nothing else and is too stupid to do even a minimal amount of vetting on anyone, believe he is wrong, or know anything about politics.

The press tactic would work better if he wasn't also being worse towards them recently as well. The honeymoon press era seems to be over and it is not at a great time for Trump, especially without any primaries left to change the narrative.

Hmm, good points raised here about it being OK to dismiss a federal judge from Alberto Gonzales, the Attorney General who resigned after it was revealed he fired U.S. Attorneys who were perceived to be disloyal to the Bush administration.

Nope, it just made things worse. Alberto is a scumbag already thrown out of mainstream Republican circles for being a piece of poo poo, Trump in defending painfully racist comments just tied himself to a guy that supported torture, warrantless wiretaps basically a lot of the toxic parts of the GWB administration that he was chased out the party for as partially a scapegoat.
